Absolutely. I would say MKG is something of a bust now. But RHJ is progressing beautifully. I like this kid. He's one of my favorite players on the team. Him, Dinwiddie and CLV. And I like Fro, too.

hot take

every single person that **** talked RHJ over the last 6 months has been quiet as hell on these boards. at least own up to it. if i'm wrong about something i'd gladly admit it. don't let pride get in the way. feast on the plate of crow willingly.

Does "gladly" mean fighting for something like a crazed man with no real argument before admitting they were wrong the next day after you came to your senses?

On another note RHJ's improved midrange game has helped him tremendously

If I were in the NBA and were a center or forward. I'd hate to have to defend this guy. He's literally a headache. I cut off his strong side drive, and this mofo has the audacity to turn around fade on me

RHJ seems to be a bad shot maker. That's really nice to see this early into his development. When he doesn't need to be leaned on as heavily and in turn his shot selection gets better that should aid in making him more confident and efficient.

We have a lot of guys that could be truly special. Rondae is one of them.

I could’ve never imagined Rondae turning out to be the kind of scorer he is today. I truly thought we was going to be a poor mans MKG/Gerald Wallace.

If he can maintain his 34% from 3 on more attempts then the league better watch out. We might even be able to move him back to SF.

Look at what Winslow and Stanley Johnson are doing. No one thought that Rondae would turn out to be the best forward from that draft class.

I guess he’s the one thing we can thank Billy King for.

nah bruh, f' Billy King.

Kenny Atkinson is a genius. You see what Covington turned into? at 26. Look at Hollis-Jefferson at 22.

I must have hurt your feelings really bad sometime ago. My apologies, hopefully you'll recover from it in time before you attempt to derail another thread.

Haha you know who else was a bad shot maker? Vince.

Rondae has become so nice with the mid range J that I get shocked when he misses one. He's automatic now

His jump shot looks way smoother and less mechanical/robotic. Bigger body means he can drive with more confidence. Once we start winning more games he get more respect from the ref's hence more and 1's will follow. Will have so much fun following our big3. RHJ,CLV and JA in the coming years.

Our big3 as in guys we have drafted and moulded into NBA players. Not traded for or signed as a free agent. No disrespect intended to DLo. It's just how my basketball brain is wired. lol

And yes I do realise that we traded players to get that Big3.

If he adds even a Moe Harkless level 3pt shot does Rondae become an all star?

So wait, I know I'm 3 years late to the party, but RHJ has an enormous tattoo of himself, on his own back???

Oh lawdy... :lol:
