Fyp. You're right, it's time to stop putting limits on this guy. Maybe I was too conservative. Time to shoot for the moon, reach for the stars... Someday he'll be a 30, 5 & 10 All Star!
Still can't get over how clean that pass was. Caught me off guard when it happen and on the thousandth watch
This guy is a gamer. First playoff game and he played like it was his 100th. 4th quarter...tight game...with LeBron/AD/DLO on the court, who do we go to? Reaves. Unreal. Guy is gonna get paid $20M+ at this rate...and to be honest, I probably give it to him if he plays like this throughout the playoffs and we're winning. He's THAT good. And he's only 24 years old.
If anyone tries to poach Reaves the most they can offer him is 11 million for the 1st two years. His contract must be backloaded so it'll be easy to match since by then James will be off the books.
Still can’t get over how perfect that behind the back dish to Rui was. The balls to pull off that pass in the moment, yet at the same time it wasn’t just some risky play for the sake of being flashy, it was actually the only real angle to get the ball to Rui from his position. And the execution was just flawless!
For years on the old Clublakers site, many fans longed for us to sign Kirk Hinrich to play alongside Kobe. Who knew we’d get a version of him 10 years later in HBK.
The only real Nash comp I see is that both could sniff out the contact and knew how to get the shot up and absorb the hit without doing the human torpedoe s*** Harden and others do today. That, some of his bucket percentages project to Nash-like. And both are unassuming NBA white guards. That's about it from where I'm sitting.
The best comp is probably Ginobili the more I watch Reaves SG size, great handle, plays like a PG, good defender, good shooter, deadly on the PnR. Both willing to bring the sauce out and create something out of nothing Reaves is less careless then Ginobili but Manu was an athletic freak who could get away with that stuff. Maybe Reaves jumper will be more consistent to make up for the hops
