If it's any consolation, Jarian Grant (a 23yr PG) is last in the league on 3pt % a woeful .062 shooting 39% overall and Tyrus Jones hasn't made a shot yet. 0-5 .
It's a super small sample size, but he looked like a total bust. You can usually watch the way a guy moves and tell pretty soon if he has a future in this league. He was slow, and not that athletic. Add in the fact that he can't shoot and you don't have a winning combination. Also, if he had the back injury @ Wisconsin, not sure why you spend a 1st rd pick on him knowing this. No doubt Morey goofed this pick up!
i blame this on the Spurs. They lost to the Pelicans in he regular season finale therefore giving us the 18th pick instead of the 14th. Maybe Morey doesnt pick Decker at 14.
Of course I forgot that Spurs lost gave us the second seed. So I blame the Pelicans for being unexpectedly good last year when we had their pick.
Some of you guys need to get a grip lol. You generally don't want players jumping into surgery if it can be avoided hence the delay between the injury and the announcement. They tried to rehab it and it wasn't professing. As to why he's looked so poor as a rocket, well he's needed back surgery since before he put on a jersey. This season will be abuts for him but his future is still wide open.
That guy was right claming he was not a insider, but he had information from his saying mchale told him Dekker might need back surgery.... And people talk so much %hit to that dude SMH
He has struggled at the 3 and probably won't ever be a good 3 pt shooter. He takes a long time getting his shots off, and the Knicks are encouraging him to shoot more (and faster), But he shot 34% in college so its likely that will improve. But he has performed well with assists and TOs so far. And at 6-4" he is a better option on defense than any of our current PGs (yes, IMO better that Beverley).
Didn't someone here say that they heard something from someone about him needing back surgery a few months ago?
Wonderful. Another wasted first rounder by Morey. What's sad is that on those rare occasions he gets one right like Capela, he tries to park him overseas for a year.
