It's the passing and his defense. Scottie basically played PG for Florida State last year and guarded 1-5. But yeah they're almost the same

Precious is the ultimate project. He shows glimpses of everything, but he doesn't know how to put it together yet. Precious can bring it up the floor and shows flashes of making great reads, but he gets nervous and just turns the ball over. He can hit a pull-up 3 in college and FIBA but somehow can't hit his FTs in the NBA. He's a great defender, but any chance of him becoming a starter/star rotation player lives and dies with him learning how to shoot and finishing through contact (which he couldn't do in Miami).

Only difference I can see now is one guy is more a traditional big and the other more of a stretch (that can't shoot :dry:).

There skill sets are in the same ball park.

You are correct. Obviously Masai hasn't gotten over losing Giannis in the draft, and is swinging for the fences with these guys, but neither of these guys have the natural gifts or quickness of Giannis. Scottie is more OG than Giannis, and Precious is intriguing but he is such a big project, he might not finish developing until he's on the tail end of his second or third contract like Jerami Grant

Khem Birch probably. I'm a big fan of Hami since he seems to have fixed his jumper and stretched his range out to 3, but I doubt they'll sign him away from Detroit.

Thank god Trey Lyles signed with the Pistons. Nurse seems to love him even though he's completely garbage
