And again, no one is saying he isn't athletic. He is. I just don't use the term "elite" lightly; and in watching Ayton, I wouldn't classify his athleticism as elite.
Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.

Ya I think that's fair. If we draft him hopefully he figures out how to use his athleticism better and teaches Chriss in the process. He's another guy who is more athletic on paper than on the court.

Yeah, Young is an elite spot up shooter, check the stats.
I'm not sure I get why you responded this way.
I'll tell you why. He's not in the NBA yet, so the best way to predict it is off his college numbers. All you're doing is being speculative based on whatever. I doubt he is an elite shooter in his rookie year, that's basically unheard of. But over time, I could see it happen.

Of course I am. I'm just giving my opinion based on what I saw from him. I'm not sure any of us do anything else other than speculate. I'm not claiming to be offering anything more than opinions and analysis.

I don’t think there’s anything elite about Young’s shooting. He had a hot start to the year and then crashed back to earth very hard. He shot average percentages and had a ridiculously high turnover rate. I’d take him in the late lottery.

Hilarious! I never expected the Suns to be featured on Game of Zones. Love it! Especially the dragon part.

That was hilarious.

I was wondering what the hell Bledsoe was doing in it, but the punchline made it worth it.

Fizdale is the new Knicks coach. Gotta think the bucks job is Bud's if he wants it. Would love to see what he can do with Antetokounmpo.

That could cost us a couple of spots with that pick.

Fiz just liked the prostitutes in New York better.

I don't know what to believe. We've got reports that Fizdale and Bud both turned us down, as well as reports that "there were no finalists" in the Suns coaching search until Igor blew us away with the interview.

Whatever happened, I'm so glad we didn't get Fiz. I wonder where Jeff H will land.

Didn't want Fitzdale or Clifford. After Bud, I was all for Kokoskov.

Who cares about this? I am thrilled with the coach we got. You can't hire them all. Its like Suns fans can't have anything good happen to them without trying to find some way to make themselves miserable about it.
