That makes no sense. Grant is a pass first PG why would we get a scoring pg to run this offense in terry Rozier??

I see 1st step quickness and pretty good overall speed. There was a reason he was able to get to the ft line. I would not call him an athletic freak but I think he is about as athletic as THjr, Grant just possess better all around qualities and their shooting maybe on par with each other. Hardaway was just an okay shooter coming in and streaky while in the nba. Is okay to be an okay/streaky shooter when you are getting ast, rebs, stls, fts and other things but not so good when all you can do is shoot.
What I want to see is Grant's spot up/ catch n shoot numbers. |

Definitely seemed a bit nervous, and he did not do the things he's known for in college.
Galloway had a poor game, too, but we already know what he is capable of. If he was a rookie there would be a lot of comments about how he played yesterday. PG might be the toughest position for a rookie to prove himself, IMO. More responsibilities. He has a track record and I expect that when he finds that all important "comfort zone" in our offense, he will do fine.

Grant is not an athletic freak or even close. Also he's had trouble his whole career as a game shooter from deep. He's got good size length and smarts-- and when you use all 3 together you should be a reasonable ball player . For Grant to be really good he would need to show
A. Consistency with a jumper This is info we won't have until we get to the nba games. Someone made a point about how deron William would've set up kp many more times-- that's an attribute that makes a great nba pg RIP Crushalot😞

HOLY CRAP. Anyone that is predicting how good/bad any of these players will be off of watching what they can do in the summer league and let alone just one summer league game are absolutely ridiculous. I mean i've heard it all now. This is the summer league and these kids are playing against rookies, lifetime D-league kids, euro kids and undrafted kids and people really think they can predict how they'll be in the fuqing NBA. There were people on this board predicting how good or bad these kids will be in the 1st dang quarter yesterday. Hahahaha

No he is not..He is not even close to what Tim was athletically...Tim didn't fit the offense because they need a ball handler/defender at the position.. |
