Cat was a lot shiftier as a lefty. More slippery.

Maxey is much more physical.

I remember Cat from when he was a young kid in the neighborhood. We (our crew) used to ball up at Stugis many many years ago.

TV says he has a below average jumpshot....not this again lol.


No one who has followed this class closely says they're worried about his jump shot.

TV men bad



They added he shot 32% from 18+ ft.

His shot looked slow and low in his highlights. Hope you are right because we have been terrible at developing shooters and we cant have another subpar shooter in our rotation.

Lowry and Beal seem like way too good of shooters for a comparison unless you have reason to believe he’s much better than the 29% he shot from college 3.

I wanna say Marcus smart because of body type but Maxey is faster and a better scorer off the dribble.

I just hope he can be like a Jamal Crawford type. High energy bench player than can give us 20 mins of instant offense a night


Lowry was NOT a good shooter coming out of college.

I doubt he'll be there at 36... If we want him we need to go get him...

Million dollar question... You worried about Maxey's shot like Fultz's?

I was never worried about Fultz's shot. I was worried that wasn't any good period

... And he isn't

Denver kills it with all these upside picks. I love their draft strategy

Denver really yields a lot out of these high upside picks. Watching his highlights, how does he fall that far? He's so fast and athletic as a 6'6 point guard.

I don't get the Maxey pick at all. Guard who can't shoot and has terrible form.... and I'm a Kentucky fan! Just don't see much potential at all here.

I like Terry but I'm not moving up for him.
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

I KNEW IT. I knew Quickley was going to go first round; I was just afraid it'd be us.

Seems to be some news that Klay Thompson tore his Achilles?
