Jalen Hood-Schifino Discussion: Team Declining 3rd Year Option!

Last two games is a regression.

 

Bronny 4 points and + 17
Shifino 3 and +12 lol

 

He sucks, nothing new.

 

Meanwhile ESPN just posted their top 100 players. Jaime is #86 and Podz is #78.

Guess JHS

 

My boy will show up in the playoffs…just need a better substitute for vegan protein

 

lol, i take it all back!

 

he's just a kid

I think he'll eventually get there if we have time to groom him. But seems his ceiling is just solid, not outstanding.

Kids that come out too early from college to get the bag take the risk of having a much shorter career and flaming out if they can't take the leap to the pro level quickly. Adding injury to the mix, and wala, you're a sucky has been with no potential at the ripe old age of 20-21. Pretty wild really.

 

Yeah he seems off. I still don't grasp what is his profile. He's not a shooter, not a orchestrator, not a dribbler, not a lock down defender. He doesn't have a specific skill where he excels and is below average in most of them

Hopefully some team bites and believes in him but he's not doing us any favors at rising his stock

 

yeah, I'm not as down on him; as I've said, he needs another year in the G-league. PG's take longer to develop. Typically, you could see an NBA skill early, though. Just don't see it w/him quite yet. don't know if we ever will. problem is, Rob and JJ want to call this a "program" and "develop" our players when I know in a minute, if Rob had a deal on the table he liked, he would cobble all these young pieces together and trade them in a sec for all-star. f*** the development. lol. and that's okay if it's right deal. IMO.

sometimes, instead of being optimistic, we just have to call it as we see it, and and JHS sucks a** right now.

 

Olivari hopefully gets some good burn in this 2nd of the back to backs along with the chance to actually handle the ball and not have to run down to the corner where JHS is not looking to do him any favors. In the brief minutes he played last night again you could see the Schroder like speed on D packaged in a bigger and stronger body.

 

He loves that pull up jump shot and he likes to shoot. That's all I got.

 

maybe he turns into Andre Miller. Solid NBA career, but not the guy to get you to the promised land.

But then again, neither is CP2

 

The kid was rehabbing from back surgery all summer, and still found a way, to be in excellent shape for training camp. That shows a level of professionalism to me. I know he wasn't able to hoop any, so let's see how he looks after ramping up his game, with some heavy minutes in the G league.

 

i've said a few times that i think this is really why we drafted him. he's got good positional size, and he's a hard worker and not a head case.

he has a long way to go before he's playable on a winning team. i was hoping to see more positives from him in the preseason, but it looks like another year of g league seasoning is in order. if he looks like this still next year, he's done.

 

It's frustrating that this guy keeps passing up on threes and instead going for 10-15 footers, but he's still missing them. Redick probably hates that.

 

Well, if nothing else we learned from this pick and took the best guy available this year in Dalton.

I don’t see it but still hope he can become a contributor

 

They have, BUT when the next few selections directly after us are hitting... man it's frustrating. Usually there's one. One guy, you're like damn, he would've been nice. But multiple consecutive picks after JHS is rough. To me that's much more frustrating than seeing a Cam Thomas at the end of the 1st in his draft or even Kessler 5 picks from a 17th slot in his draft, because there was more uncertainty and more teams passed.

Had this been 2022 it would have been: Terry, LaRavia and Branham
21: Tre Mann, Kai nutjob Jones, and Jalen Johnson (JJ is one but at 17 you landed Trey Murphy so you're good)


This would've been closer to 2020 when the following picks were Josh Green, Bey, Precious, Maxey

 

It was a wistful fanciful drafting by a blind man which was corrected this past draft… Chaz would have never picked my boy because Chaz lacks imagination, he would have picked a specimen like he did Bynum
