To be fair, playing Scoot 37 minutes typically leads to a loss...


PG is one of the hardest positions to move into in the NBA, he needs to improve but it's way too early to act like he is a bust or a done deal.

If we would have drafted a 19 year old Lillard he also likely would have needed more time on the court to even hit that rookie level he showed back in 2012-2013 season.


I never said Scoot was a bust. But he is certainly not ready for prime time. I was just calling out Wizenheimer for his "We're trying to tank! Why are you playing Scoot 37 minutes?" hot take.
