Franz shot 38/20/100, and Paolo has shot 32/0/89 in the preseason, but I'm sure they said nothing about them.

The inability to correctly evaluate AB is correlated with either:
a) prior Fultz worship
b) prior Fultz hatewatching
He's either not Fultz (no aura) so not good enough or another Fultz (can't shoot) and not good enough.
Meanwhile he's slowly working on his game, improving his handle and shot. When it is beyond obvious that he's a point guard (scouting reports, nominal labels, and play-by-play data not being good enough for most) everyone will be shocked at how we got here.
I noticed a few posters here that only post when Black does something negative. It's like their first impression of him was negative, so they're always searching for something to justify that.

I too have liked what I seen so far pre season. I am hopeful. I am concerned about the level of effort of opposing teams and players but choosing to ignore that for now. The hope for me is that at worst AB + JR compliment each other much like Suggs + Bane can. The issue being, especially with Tyes (SP) in the background. Where is the give?
My guess is JR shoots to deep bench. Especially early on over Jett. The Jett plane minutes that he has given I am 100% thinking is to restore his current value for a future shopping en-devour.
