These types of tantalizing talents scare me doggie ... Could be Steph :ehh:



.. or he could fall off like Jimmer Freddette
:picard:


Want to watch him in the conference tourney and obviously during March Madness before I decide
:jbhmm:
Jimmer didn’t have a handle like Trae Young nor did he shoot off the dribble much. I’m on the Trae Young bandwagon. I think he’s gonna ball in the NBA.

My Pops Forever RIP
It's not about the elite 8 or final 3. He will be a talking point if he drops 30-40 in the opening round. Most people (causals) don't know who he is. But if he keeps this play up in the tournament it will only help at this point is all I'm saying

He's already passed sexton might pass like.
Right now I have him getting picked 6th
What will matter more for him is 2 things:

a deepish tourney run to solidify his stock for the reasons you just mentioned: he's not yet out there in terms of the casual's conscience. Curry didn't shine til he got in the tourney and put in work. Buddy Hield was doing Young-like shyt, but he carried that to the Final Four and wound up getting picked 6th. The other thing is just maintaining that shot during workouts. If he keeps this up, he can pick his workouts.

At the very least, he has overtaken Porter's spot in these conversations. The one thing I feel will hurt him is that because of last year's PG draft, a lot of bad teams suck, but at least they have PG's. I could see Phoenix picking him. I could see Orlando taking him. Every other team is begging for a messy clusterfukk if they go Young.

Damn I didn't even think about Phoenix. Guarding a Trae Young and Devin Booker backcourt :huhldup:


Is Booker a selfish teammate though? They could be like Steph and Klay if they're not too egotistical:ehh:

Jimmer would regularly pull up from nba 3point range off the dribble just like Trae and have the same type of scoring explosions ... he was also short armed and lacked elite athleticism like Trae
:lupe:




On the other hand he was no where near the ball handler Trae is as you say nor did he posses the passing vision of Trae ... as I said these kinds of dudes are scary
:lupe:

So much tantalizing talent :noah:




But also real bust potential :lupe:
