This kid is the whole truth and nothing but the truth :wow:

look at this and tell me you dont see Scottie pippen






6-10 can handle the ball like KD can defend almost every position and hes still growing :wow:







19 years old :wow:

I'm a big fan of his. he has the potential to do great things but i feel like he doesnt have his head on straight. Kinda Garnett's first year. He needs to figure out his niche and use it to his advantage.

Why doesn't he 'have his head on straight'?

What the hell is that even supposed to mean?

He has all the skills bit doesnt know when to use them. Too often he tries to drive by smaller players and loses the ball (heat game last year) and tries to back down players weighing 50 lbs more than he does and end up taking bad shot or no movement at all and has to pas it out.

Like i said just like Garnett as a rookie: has the game but doesnt know when to use what.
I see him as a potentially much better version of Lamar Odom (in Odom's prime). With his lenght and handles :banderas:
And you know which GM loves these types :shaq:

So was KG :smugbiden:
He eventually figured it out. + AntetoKoumpo will benefit from Parker's presence. They'll be a fun duo to watch in a few years

Won't one of them have to be traded? Can you see Giannis bulking up enough to play the 4 on a daily?
Not too mention I'm not sure if Parker can consistently guard 3s or 4s?.

Parker seems like a big 2 kinda like Kobe and Pierce. He lacks quickness so just like Pierce he'll struggle ti guard smaller quicker 2's. We'll see.

Giannis is defnitely a possible 4 but can play 3 just fine. Again, Lamar Odom/Jamal Mashburn type but more Lamar

He may be an all star some day but he'll never be the best player in the league at any time...

and as i have stated for a month,Caboclo will be better than him in 2 seasons...

Nah chill B

Its not impossible breh..Hes 6-9 athletic,still growing,7'7" wing span,hes already a better shooter from distance.

Once he gets mins and comfortable and acclamated hes got the tools to potentially be a beast on both ends of the floor...Only thing that will hold him back is minutes,he wont get anywhere near 25 MPG that Yannis got last year but im going with the black brasilian over the black greek every damn time breaugh!
