Ja Morant is like a better Westbrook the way he carved his competition. He's a good consolation prize I'd be ok with.

Isn’t the fact that he played in an inferior league his biggest question mark? How about the turnovers? Thought those were quite assumed

It is an inferior league, but he still willed his team to the touranment. In 33 games this past season, he had 10+ assist games 19 times. Turnovers....yes a bit concerning but only because he's not playing with NBA teammates with better skill sets.
FYI...Curry averages 3 TOs for his career. Literally no one uses that as a barometer for him because he does so many other things great.

You are kinda throwing around weight and shooting and then making light of everything else Morant

Weight has killed many NBA careers, lack of shooting in today's NBA...same thing. In today's possession heavy NBA, why would the learning process on turnovers end careers. Shooting is the hardest thing to improve...took years for someone like Lebron. How would it be any easier for Barrett?

What’s his leverage? Play in Europe? China?

There is no way Zion would be so stupid. He seems like a smart and humble enough kid as is. He’s a Pelican. Get over it.

Barrett hit his first five tries from 3-point range for the Blue Devils (21-2, 9-1 Atlantic Coast Conference). His fifth one gave them a 29-15 lead after less than 12 minutes of play.

I watched this game live. Somebody who can't shoot, doesn't get that lucky and hit 5 straight 3's. He clearly has a jumper, so lets stop that rumor.

He clearly has a take over mentality. And thats very difficult when you are playing with the #1 player in the country. In fact, I've watched games where Zion deferred to RJ down the stretch a little too much. That told me a lot about RJ. He has that it you can't teach.

What he's lacking is something you can teach, which is consistency. But what I like most is that he's not afraid of the moment. He's not intimidated by other star players. And before Zion came on the scene, he held the #1 college player position for a long time early in the season.

I can clearly see RJ and Ja having a similar impact on the NBA, over the course of their career. And I said this during the college season. I said too much attention is on Zion, but what if RJ is the better player. It all depends on how great he wants to be.

RJ is the best all around player in college. He can play a Draymon Green roll, as a tripple double threat. And he's a two way player.

Also Ja Morant never seems particularly enthused about playing for the Knicks when asked.

No.

At least Beal can shoot

his contract is bananas , but i would trade for him over AD if kyrie and kD are on board..it makes the most sense, and balances the roster with a real SG, a real pg, and a bona fide sf/pf..it also help that all three are good ball handlers.
