Official Scottie Barnes Thread

[Son Goku 25]

Must see game now.

Top 2 choices for ROY + both with most potential in draft.

FVV GON teach Sexland he hasn't forgotten.

Revenge on Sexton - specifically.

I don't believe that the Raps faced SexLand last season. One was injured during each matchup, if I am remembering this correctly?

Honestly didn't even realize his name was Sexton

[niQ]

Was hoping Scottie would return against the Cavs so that he could notch another win against his ROY competition.

Yeah, he really is that irrelevant. Only know of him because 'Sex' is in his family surname

18% fg percentage and 4.7% from 3
LOL

[Bruin]

Cade had 18 points but that was heavily carried by getting 10 FTA. Imagine if Barnes got calls and got to the line that many times

yep, 4 -17 from the field yet goes to the line more in one game than scottie has practically all season despite getting 90% of his baskets in the paint lol

Fade for Cade starting to sound prophetic. The shine on the rookie has faded fast.

There’s a skill in getting to the line. That’s how superstars get 6-8 points extra a game.
Not saying Cade is a superstar, but something Scottie needs to learn over time.

Yes there’s a skill but there’s also a bias towards some players. Most rookies don’t get calls but somehow Cade did

Scottie gets hammered multiple times a game without a call

I just love that the 2 guys who were supposed to be projects and struggle offensively early on are the ones actually not struggling

I missed this in the summer but a lot of this was spot on except I’m sure even David couldn’t believe how fast Scottie has progressed

I watched every Evan Mobley play and highlight and am actually very, very disappointed.

People are simply looking at box scores and videos of blocked shots that really don't prove any notable impact.

The comparisons to previous elite bigs are so, so incredibly off that all it takes is watching any rookie video of AD, Bosh, KG, even KP to see how inferior he is physically and athletically to those type of prospects.

I'm actually kind of shocked tbh.

Barnes is on a completely other level IMO. He's better at literally everything and has a physical package Mobley can never have as he's so skinny with narrow shoulders, twig legs, smaller hands with a weak grip.

Last time I checked Mobley had +17 Net Rating with a +9.2 On/Off, which is pretty crazy for a rookie big. His defense is legit game changing, his offense will grow in time.

Go watch his tape.

Analytics don't tell the story.

He's being hidden away and protected without having any key responsibilities.

Anatlytics dont tell the whole story, but they reinforce what the eye test shows. Nothing about Mobley say's he doesn't have "notable impact" look at what he's done with these loser cavs in such a short time. Also for fun

Player A: 19 yrs old, 13.5 pts, 8.2 reb, 1.0 ast, 1.8 blk, 1.2 stl, 52 FG%
Player B: 19 yrs old, 10.4 pts, 6.3 reb, 1.8 ast, 1.6 blk, 1.1 stl, 49 FG%
Player C: 20 yrs old, 13.8 pts, 8.6 reb, 2.2 ast, 2.0 blk, 1.2 stl, 50 FG%

Who do you like more?

Spoiler:

Player A: Anthony Davis during his rookie season in 2012-13
Player B: Kevin Garnett during his rookie season in 1995-96
Player C: Evan Mobley during his rookie season right now
