Not being high on Grayson Allen is fine, but just don't spout falsehoods like he doesn't have an NBA body and he's not a great athlete.

Everyone should tune in for Chinanu Onuaku. I think he's gonna be good NBA starter.

I always enjoy your scouting. Two players that are mentioned as possible 76er point guards are Melo Trimble and Demetrius Jackson.

Personally, I haven't watched much Maryland or Notre Dame basketball so I don't have a good feel for either of these players. Do you like either of them for our team?

Not super high on either of them.

Trimble was hot last year. Looked like a young Lou Williams clone. He came back for his sophomore year and tried to become more of a facilitator. Which is good. But he hasn't been able to balance that with maintaining his dynamic scoring ability from last year. His shooting percentages went to s***, too. And he still doesn't play any defense.

Similarly to Trimble, Jackson also came back to add a facilitating element to his game (due to the absence of Jerian Grant). He's had a little more luck in successfully pulling off the transition without letting other areas of his game fall off. But he plays even less D than Trimble.

More skilled player: Trimble
Better athlete: Jackson

I'd take quite a few guards over either of them.

Maybe you's should put some of those real defenders to work trying to stop Grayson Allen because he's tearing you a new a**hole right now.

lmaooo, umm its a matchup zone, only way to win to keep spraying away 3s, more power to em if they keep shooting like this...the press always wears you down in the 2nd half. Grayson better drop 37 to win

He has the handle to, he needs to grow into the body to. The people that think he's in the same class as Simmons are kidding themselves, tho.

Kobble, aint seen this dude do a crossover pull up in a while...being small has 0 to do with being able to dribble and manuever around defenders, Ingram is a either spot up or dribble step in kinda guy. Cannot iso for anything right now, also why we dont need him, very very weak

I like Ingram. He's growing on me. He's also very young so his lack of strength isn't a concern to me. He will get stronger. It's not imperative he has to be that strong since he's a wing player. Ingram does need more moves though. He either jab steps and tries to blow by the defender or he backs you down and shoots over them. His handles aren't all that but with all that said I think I might rate him as a better prospect than Parker and Wiggins.

Ur buggin, Jabari has a much bigger range of moves, anddddd he plays against 4s in the league currently, Ingram would be bbq chicken if u put him at the 4, Parker is a wayyyy more complete player than Ingram, Ingram is just a glorified 3 chucker...not too high on him

He's nowhere near the KD and TMac comparisons made him out to be. But it's not like he's Robert Covington, either. Are you basing his inability to iso on this game or have you watched him a lot this year? I've seen him have a couple impressive takes in just about every game this season.
