Austin Reaves Discussion: Overachiever Who Underachieved

Can we sign him to whatever and still have a slot for a max guy or close to it, due to some cap crap?

 

With HEALTH. Whatever locker room ritual B-Ball style this squad uses for good juju.

 

Health is all coming together. Our Malone/Stockton/Hornacek type trio, only better, is coming and there is no MJ in the East to stop them.

 

Game knows Game and for Slick this definitely answers what seems completely obvious by now …. the matter of whom Luka is going to want on the team going forward. LeBron too for that matter. They both know how good and how valuable AR is and HIM will be one of those players for sure.

 

He told the teams not to draft him (in the 2nd round), so he could sign a two way with us. At least that's what i think happened...

 

Austin is off the table, as long as Lebron's here. Hopefully Luka feels the same way in 2 years. A ring should solidify it!

 

Lol..you guys know that Lebron claimed Austin, as his discovery as a rookie!

" Yeah I knew he was a player right away!"
"I went and told Rob that they needed to get that kid on a regular deal ASAP!"

I won't be surprised if Austin is a Klutch client by the time he's up for a new contract.

 

He's always had the crossover, the behind the back escape dribble, the mid range stop on a dime pullup, and the passing

Don't remember the stepback or the spin move much from his first few years - feels like he added those



Yeah he has a few pull up 3's off the dribble and I think one spin but the Luka like stepback is something that a new wrinkle for him and it's opening the floor for him. (he does have a luka like stepback near the end of the video which means closer to the end of the last season - he's been working on that shot a lot I suspect)

 

That spin move he put on last night after the crossover and before the planting of his pivot foot and subsequent rotation and step through to put the shot up with his left hand (which did get blocked) .... was crazy high speed and perfect with no traveling step like some of LeBron's.

 

pretty much. He said his top 2 teams he wanted to play for were the bucks and us. Bucks were his first option actually. Wonder what happened.

Still not a point guard…

 

Indeed #notapg

 

I am pretty sure he's going by highlights and box scores

 

Piss off, Lou, you useless womanizer.

1. I would ABSOLUTELY take AR over that fat midget
2. Norman Powell is a third option now? After calcified remains of Kawhi and over-the-hill and just as fat flop master? He is the 1st option and it's sad.

 

nothing better than ammunition to load your gun with.
