Hard to scout defense on troll teams like Rutgers in college
i mean... Kon kind of already IS an elite role player as a rookie. hes averaging 19/5.5/3.5 on 49/43/89 splits while being a respectable defender as well. he leads the NBA in 3PM for the season, so his efficiency is not being inflated by selective shots on low volume
I agree. Initially wasn't too comfortable with drafting another player with a meddlesome relative, and while I still don't like Harper Sr., I have to say watching Dylan's demeanor is reassuring. He seems like a genuinely good kid, with the right mindset, hardworking, humble, appreciative. The Spurs have built a great core around Wemby, all high character kids and vets, and winning cures a lot of ego issues. My guess is, as long as the Spurs are realistic about his path forward (let's be realistic, there's only one Manu that will accept coming off the bench consistently as a star), I'm optimistic they can thread the needle and move Fox when he's ready to take over (say, in a couple of years).
Also, don't forget, Ron Harper is kind of a pain in the ass of a parent, but he's a champion. He's a winner. He understands what it means to be a champion and a winner, and he knows that he's not going to be the person to interfere with that.
I imagine if we drafted Kon then not many, if any, would say, "man I wished we drafted Harper." But I get it. One thing is for sure, Kon is just as legit.i mean...

his rookie numberse are already on par with Klay's career averages
and look, the better Kon is, the more wrong i'd have been on him during the draft, so its not like im pumping him up here to prove i was right about him all along
Harper has a higher ceiling.
Harden was the worst player you could've compared him to lol...Great player. Never won anything being the system. And make no mistake, Vic is the engine. And if Castle improves his 3, he's the backup engine. Why you just want to put Harper ahead of them is quite puzzling to me but maybe it makes sense to you. Idk.
he'd make a perfect poster for this site.
And the strength and body control to bump with power players with the mental habits to forget mistakes and just keep coming back.
Can we get this printed out and framed near the forum water cooler?
Only now after I fixed the typos... am I drunk?
I've wondered the same thing. Maybe she wants to keep a lower profile or her own coaching is keeping her away?
Agreed. He ducks his head and shrugs his shoulders for a couple seconds when he gets beat or makes a bad play. He'll learn to snap back faster and not let other players know he's bothered by his mistakes and bad plays.
