Haven't really dug into this draft much, but I see the physicality, athleticism, motor, flashes of pull up middies. Can't pass that up.

Cooper Flagg is basically a white Jayson Tatum. Less offensive talent but higher motor and athleticism and passing.

I have friends that turned 18 in November/December of their freshman year. Things definitely may have changed since then though.

This man's a career DOG as a jump shooter and puts on a Dallas jersey over 100+ games now and turns into an absolute sniper. Makes no sense.

Tired of draft analysts hiding behind avatars. Not looking like they can hoop at all. Not balancing eye test and metrics

Guy was practically Ben Simmons last season with the Nets and Lakers. Then he decides to let it fly with the Mavs.
I did appreciate the defense he played though. That surprised me.

That’s KD-ish. And he can get that all day in the pros with the spacing.

Flagg had a pull up on a defender from Kentucky that was VERY Kawhi like. This looks like him too

Kawhi and Kobe the flattest shooters everIf his arc was a flatter, that's Kawhi to a tee.

I agree with young Kobe. Not sure about prime Kobe.

The energy and effort on that end feels drastically different than it did through his first Mavs stint... He's been able to play in closing lineups with Luka/Ky/PJ/Lively and they've actually been damned solid defensively in crunch time.Guy was practically Ben Simmons last season with the Nets and Lakers. Then he decides to let it fly with the Mavs.

That should be called a travel though. His pivot was moving. Of course **** would be hard to defend.
i feel likes it’s the same with him and Tatum. People have been expecting them to be top 3 players in the league but they are all around just solid superstars. Just not the LeBron , Curry level.

Somebody said Kawhi and now I cant un see it. Tatum/Kawhi/Butler. I like those. Because they are all functionally athletic but they not great run and jump athletes like Lebron or MJ
