Lol nah man, the guy is really good and going to be top 10 player in the league, but yeah second year slump Hey i ain't mad he plays for the jazz so am actually happy
You think so? A top 10 player? He is pretty damn small. 6-1 without shoes. He is shorter than SF3 was, and he seems incapable of playing PG.
He was ridiculous in his rookie year, very fun to watch. He's slumping pretty hard now, but last year he has shown what he's capable of. That didn't just go away at age 22. The main reason for his lower PER is his shooting slump. The efficiency really affects that stat.
As good as he was last year, I was surprised to see his relatively mediocre PER, even in the playoffs.
Yeah his efficiency dropped during the playoffs (42% from the field, 31% from three), but it's not very surprising since he was carrying Utah's offense by himself as a 21-year old rookie. They've put him in that high volume scorer role because they just didn't have too many other options.
Imo he has the potential to be top 10 in about 3 or 4 years from now, but he definitely needs to work on his game because so far this season he hasn't shown any kind of improvements from his first and I think part of it has to due with teams figuring out how to guard him
Cat was a lot of fun to watch when he was in Houston. It seemed like he could get to the rim at will. Had a good 3pt shot also. Ohhh the glory iso days of the late 90s early 2000s lol
Not sure how I feel about Adidas... too many injuries to good players who have worn Adidas and Reebok shoes. For me it’s Nike, always.
That's a mistake... Adidas is vastly superior right now in almost every way. The boost technology is amazing. Also the adidas curse has been long extinct.
What is Mitchel? Seems like a gunner who is a poor man’s Kyrie Irving right now. He doesn’t really run an offense at this point.
Fox is great no doubt, but I think Mitchell would also look much better than he does now, if he was on the Kings.
And Fox would suck on Utah? Say what you want about the Kings’ past, but they are winning now. I wouldn’t be saying that about Fox, if they weren’t winning. Shooting 40% threes as a high assist PG is pretty big no matter where you play, and he currently is 2nd among sophomores in 3P%. Mitchell is last among sophmores
