He's scored 18 points in 3 of the last 5 games.

Yea man, we got a future All-Star.

Apologize to Masai.

Still want them to use him for trailing 3s. Was a weapon for Dick at Kansas. Plus its demoralizing for the other team.

he's really improved defensively as well since the start of the season as well. Was impressed with how battled on that end tonight.

The way he got knocked to the floor by Scottie after trying to win the rebound was kind of amusing. :lol:

Also goes to show that he needs to get a bit stronger. The future is bright for the kid.

Unless my drunk calculations are off his TS is at 57.4% after a half season slump. I believe he's up to 38% from 3 as well.

I think Gradey is a future star. He's so raw, but his jumper is just butter. Offensively he knows where to be, and he actually throws some very nice dimes. Hes not just a shooter, the kid is a scorer. He's becoming pretty close to untouchable for me.

I can't wait to see what he does next season with a full offseason of NBA training. I think he's going to have a huge year next season, and many people will be put on notice. A comparision I've been throwing out lately has been pre injury Gordon Hayward and I'm sticking to it. Kid has allstar potential.

Olynyk has really opened things up for him with the way he moves the ball so quickly, they play off each other very well already.

This was all created by Gradey’s gravity. Guy creates so much space.

Here is the same play, this one leading to a KO three:

Like a rag doll :lol:

I seriously thought Scottie may have hurt him on that play. It took him a bit to get back into the play.

Another we the north kiddie. I'm sure you thought Ujiri made a mistake with all the extensive scouting you did on Dick.

I do think calling Dick a future AllStar is a bit extreme. Heck Barnes barely made it this year. Even Charlie V who scored 50points in his rookie and never made it.

I joined the forum before the We The North era, you clown.

Gradey is first team all defense compared to Charlie V…

BC getting TJ for him was an absolute robbery and doesn’t get the credit it deserves.

I was comparing him to Reggie Miller and Ray Allen on draft day and I'm just happy that it's actually starting to look like it will happen

Barnes was going for the triple double there.

Dick is already a better passer than both of them

Defense is day and night. He was completely lost, at the beginning. It was the area of concern for me (including when he was playing for 905) but he adapted to the speed of the game. Early on he was consistently half a second behind the play.
