Oh, I realize that; that's kind of what I find intriguing... I wonder if having a natural player analog speaks to the ease of player transition into the NBA (effectively, representing fit in modern NBA play style)
Really???
That's quite the comparison...
Very intriguing!
You know, the more I watch JJJ, the more I see an athletic Horford
I feel like I should be offended for not being in this list, but I have been slacking compared to the tank years lol.
How is it possible that guys like Jaren Jackson and Ayton have wingspans of 7’0”, which is great on guys that talk but Mo Bamba has a wingspans full FOOT longer at 8’0”
That’s just insane. But then I guess not unprecedented because both Gobert and Whiteside are listed as having 8’0” wingspans as well. Supposedly McHalechad a wingspan our to 8’0” which is impressive being 6’10” in height where most of the other 8’0” wingspan guys are 7 ft or taller.
By the end of this you are going to be going crazy trying to decide if one of these guys has to be kept or should be traded and who for.
Take no offense; just the other day I mentioned you in a post as being one of my college hoops gurus on RCF...
But, I see you have Bamba and Ayton as your 1-2. I also have noted your preference towards big men in the league... Do you think this translates as well today as it did just ten years ago?
Also noted you left off Young? Where do you have him?
Thanks.Last measurements I saw had Bamba at 7'9" and JJJ at 7'4"
@gourimoko this is how I break them down for the cavs.
Doncic: he can do it all apart from jump immediate impact and flexible enough to fit in as spot up shooter and pock and roll ball handler. Won't be able to guard 1 in Nba but should be able to switch between 2 and 4 and hold his own.
Bamba: high ceiling has excellent footwork and potential to expand his game out to the perimeter. Should be elite defender in the space of the nba game.
Jaren Jackson Jr: instant 3 and D big. Should fill out and be able to cover the 5 great fit for the cavs. pros pro. Lower ceiling offensively than Bamba
Can you give 2 NBA players as comparative projections for these 3 players? Floor/ceiling?
