Manu Ginobili and James Harden. Manus in different. It comes more from the shoulder but it's a good stroke. Harden has a beautiful jumpshot. Goes right up and through, snaps his wrist. Doesn't lean back. What happens up top is consistent(players biggest problem when shooting). Good to see him showing off that skill. He's without a doubt a 1st round talent. And Harden travels every time he goes up for a shot because he shuffles his feet and has poor footwork. The refs in the NBA never call it anymore and I seen him push off to clear space and yet they call it on the defender. My point is, I wouldn’t pattern myself after James Harden on any part of his game if I were TJD Quote

Both of those two players were much more enjoyable to watch than shuffle on down, shuffle on down, and then shuffle my feet Harden Scotty R 1 Quote

Lefties are just different. Don't know what it is. I agree and being a lefty I can tell you you can't watch anything right-handed and replicate it.Just have to learn it yourself.

Funny you say that… I’m a lefty and yet I’ve shot the ball right handed for as long as I can remember. I obviously went all out in replicating a right handed stroke, albeit with mixed results.

Demo Posted May 22, 2023 Posted May 22, 2023 Want to see an agenda up close? Edey’s lateral movement for his size is really very good, but this is a stone mis-time and he knows it and yet uses it to make a point he’s dying to make. Edey’s actual lane agility time is not better than Kobe Bufkin, I promise. OliviaPope40, lillurk, hoosierbgh and 1 other 4 Quote

Not sure if I agree it’d be that dumb - that draft was infuriating - BUT I do believe there will be some GMs kicking themselves for not grabbing him when they have a chance. He can’t be any worse than Isaiah Jackson and I say that as someone that likes IJ as a deep role player. lillurk 1 Quote

He can play the 4 and 5 depending on what lineup they want to throw out there. Jackson is smaller than TJD and is a 5 because of his skills(or lack thereof). Grabbing Trayce anywhere in the 20s is a good spot. Only reason not drafting OG was a dumber mistake is because they took TJ Leaf.... Freaking morons. thebigweave 1 Quote
