I can envision him being on the court and him doing the dirty work. Will he get there? Not sure. I want to be cautious saying he regressed. Summer league is tough to evaluate. I thought his G league was up and down...despite good stats. I was hoping he would take on more responsibility this summer and really have the look of NBA player. I don't think we have seen that yet, but there are also a lot of variables that makes this hard to evaluate imo.
take my opinion with a grain of salt though, I talked myself into Nate Hinton 3 years ago. I tried doing the same with Tyrell Terry...that was hard after they hype leading up to the draft and then seeing him on the floor in summer league. I tried though.
I hear you. I've swung and missed on many players (I was the biggest CWood fan here). That's why we're on a fan forum and not in a front office.
I was huge on OMax last SL. I do see a regression, though. IMO, he looks like an athlete from another sport trying to learn basketball, like MJ in baseball. I just don't see that trending anywhere it needs to be.
