what's OG anunoby's potential?

[YogurtProducer]

No I do know what a floor or ceiling it. He’s still a prospect, so if you’re judging his floor as what it is now then you’re the one who’s confused as to what it is. I am simply making a comparison to his potential as the tile to this thread.

You’ve listed his floor as a one time allstar and his ceiling as a one time Allstar. In this case I would say you’ve made a very poor application of floor and ceiling.

So you’re comparing Wallace making the Allstar in his prime vs a 20 year old entering the league. Lets compare both guys first year in the league and tell me I’m wrong.

So his floor is rookie Gerald Wallace not all star Gerald Wallace? That makes a lot more sense if that’s what you mean

Career wise, I think his floor would be similar to Wallace’s. All I said was floor: Gearld Wallace. A agenda was made to compare OG now vs prime Wallace which is not right. When talking about potential, should we not consider what their career numbers would be.

So you think he will be Gerald Wallace? That doesn’t make it his floor, that would make what you think is his realistic comparison.

It would be like

Floor:Demarre Carroll
Probable Outcome: Gerald Wallace
Ceiling: Kawhi Leonard

It is ridiculous to say his floor is Gerald Wallace. Completely ridiculous

[bwgood77]

There are other accomplishments OG can reach, such as defensive player of year, etc.

I was joking. He looks like a great pick. I mean if he keeps shooting as well as he is, he will be a two way threat as well. His TS% so far is already better than Wallace or Artest ever were, and they had long careers. So even if it just stays at what it is and never improves, that's a value to stretch the floor. He is shooting better from 3 than they ever really did...Artest maybe had one year a little better.

And obviously defense is his specialty so who knows, but I wouldn't necessarily put a ceiling on what he can become. I think it's premature to put a ceiling on anyone. It depends on how hard they work.

I'm sure a guy like Isaiah Thomas, for example, has blown through any perceived ceilings people had for him.

I don’t think his probable outcome will be Gerald Wallace. We still don’t know if OG can shoot and play as effectively as Ron did. Ron Artest must be the most under appreciated forward of his time. He was great had he not had his bipolar attitude

Edit: for the slack I’m getting about OG’s rookie numbers, you want to throw Kawhi’s name as his ceiling. No way do I think OG could guard LBJ as well as Kawhi did in the finals. Also, Carroll can’t do what OG has shown just in 1 year.

[kulaz3000]

Yeah, comparing OG to Artest so early in his career is unfair to both Artest and OG.

He is still extremely raw, and when Artest came into the league he already had a man's body, and was ready to contribute on the defensive end right away. He was also a very underrated scorer. People forget that he will go down as one of the best defenders of all time, it's just that all his antics allow most people to remember those things, as opposed to what he did on the basketball floor.

OG still has a long ways to go, but he has all the tools to be a really good player, and possibly even surpass the type of career that Artest had, but he has a long long way to go.

I like OG’s chances of becoming a Ron Artest than a Kawhi. He has a similar body shape to Ron’s

I just don’t see him becoming as dominant as Kawhi has. He’s an elite talent who developed nicely in Pop’s system. He’s also much more polished offensively.

I do agree that OG still needs development. Getting him to be a Ron Artest next to DD would suit the Raptors really well moving forward

[Kalela]

I was really big on hi before the injury but I haven't been impressed since he came back from it. He was really athletic before but now he just looks slow and uncoordinated.

Artest was like 265 at 6'7 as a rookie. The guy was built like mack-truck.

That's not to say that OG's body at such a young age isn't impressive, but Artest was an absolute tank.

I doubt the 265 number is actual. His draft profile has him listed at 246. OG is 10 pounds lighter. However we will never know the truth, but taking a look at just the images, they look quite the same at the same age.

The ****? So his floor is Gerald Wallace but it isn’t his probable outcome? You honestly have zero comprehension of the word floor

And Carroll in his best year is better than rookie OG.

[RaptorsLife]

His shoulders are so big for 20 year old

[TurboTitan]

Ppl saying hes a top 5 players in this draft are out of their minds lmao. Top 15 for me

Ill let the probable thing go. However, Carroll is trash

[GreatWhiteStiff]

People concentrate on a guy's three point shooting, and if that's a high enough level he'll be a good player. OG has a lot of size length smarts and finishing ability. He shot 70% on 2pt shots in college, and is 60%ish right now as a rookie in the nba. Inside scoring is probably where most of his offensive strength lies IMHO.

Yea... but he's been assisted on 83% of those... doesn't exactly scream that he's going to be some sort of dynamo in getting to the rim.

[BCbudraptorfan]

Best small forward the raps never had.

[HOOOMAN]

He has such a unique frame and skill compisition, its hard to compare.

His 3pt shot had surprised me. He is not asked at all, to create with the ball right now. I hope this doesnt make him too passive on offense, constantly deferring. Defense is his strength and i really want to see him improve his rebounding. He's also still so fresh off a serious injury..we wont be able to see his true potential until next year i think.

[Mich3006]

Don’t know who‘s responsible for their draft choices but the Nuggets should fire them asap!

We shouldn‘t give too much on mock drafts but most of us knew OG will be a steal.

Raptors are still promising. If they can fetch DJ the East is on fire
