What has Seraphin proved? that he can be inconsistent? Right now Kevin has been like a poor man's Eddy Curry(eddy Curry when he was actually productive). 1.7 assist is good for a team with 6 play makers or more. I think you're overrate him. If he's 3-4 year from being a allstar, what does that make Kevin? I think Prime Seraphin may average 16 and 8 realistically but he's on a bad team now and that's hard to asset. Thing about Leonard that I like, is that he doesnt make many mistakes and you hardly ever see Pop chewing him out. I see Leonard as a 17pts,8 rb, 2stl kind of player in his prime. Remember he played PF in College.
So basically you're expecting prime gerald wallace out of him? Seraphin has his issues, but he's shown a propensity to improve, I'm not sure if Randy will end up being the right coach for him but he has shown substantial progress. Per 36 seraphin is already averaging around 16-8...i think his ceiling is probably around 19-9 on decent efficiency. But its all a gamble...seraphin's flaws aren't MAJOR imo. like AFM said, he does stupid things like setting bad picks...I think these things are amendable. I don't beleive Leonard's drive to be great is any greater then seraphins, and having an all star big man has more value then borderline all star wing. Again, i'd rather give up beal right now then seraphin.
He plays nothing like Gerald. He's more finesse than power. He doesnt play out of control. It took Gerald years to become the kind of shooter Leonard is now from deep. Poor man's Scottie pippen outside of the playmaking. I don't think Seraphin will ever average more than 16-17 pts. That would mean he'll have to be the #1 or #2 option and if he does, that's not a good thing. Kevin is a very mental player. If you get in his head, it bothers him and if his confidence is low, he's quite useless. I see Beal as a 23pts,5 rb,3ast player in his prime. I would not trade him for Leonard. He may look like some shyt now, but people was counting Harden out his 1st two years saying Demar was the wayyy better player. i remember harden used to get his layups blocked all the time and people considered him a below the basket player. Said he was slow and average athletics. I have faith in Beal. His problem is that he's trying hard not to make mistakes instead of just playing through it, sorta like Kevin but Kevin makes mistakes now that rookie makes. I root for Seraphin every night, so dont get me wrong...especially since he's sorta West Indian like myself.
They literally know me at family court BTW. I had to keep laughing, man, to keep from crying. After a while, even my lawyer liked me. I was like "Nice IPad. Wish I could afford one, at first." Remember that guy on the "People's Court" who says "Don't take the law into your hands. Take them to court." That's true. In real life, just make sure you've got a good lawyer. I did. I got what I paid for.
