The Gradey Dick Thread Part 3

The midrange shooting isn't sustainable but he likely starts finishing better at the rim as well. Pretty tough to imagine he's a FVV level finisher there.

Future face of the league.

As his body develops by mid 20's he'll be able to take more contact.

He’s got guys jumping at him all over on the perimeter now. Another step in his development will be learning to turn those into fouls like all the best grifter shooters in this league do.

I was doing a lot of dick bashing but mid season last year i totally understood Dick's a grower and not a shower.

But face it, nobody in here predicted this level of growth. Hopefully its sustained long term.

I predicted it.

I also predicted 16-18 PPG. You could tell the kid was a natural scorer the last season during his last 20 games.

Yep me too. I think I may have even predicted 20.

The handle, passing, and finishing can be a lot better. The mid range is great but we need to see other areas of his game more than that part of his game.

He's thus maintained last year's three point percentage (it's slightly higher) on higher volume so that's a plus.

Also his FTr has more than doubled from .115 to .234.

He was .638 from 3 feet, so his finishing should increase.

The season is still very new though so his numbers can go any direction at this point. (downwards or upwards)

Besides Scottie, I don't remember any of our wing draft picks putting numbers like these in their 2nd year. Not T-Ross, not Bruno or OG.

Darko grew all these kids in 5 months. Crazy to see

Random thought, I don't think Gradey would go for it, but there could be some decent money to be made in the sex toy industry. E.g. Dildos with Gradey's head as the head

it's just business

a lot of athletes are involved in the sex industry, usually as clients though

I’ll delete it, but not replying would help a lot

You delete it actually, seems like I can’t

He's incredibly fun to watch. I always notice he rarely makes the wrong shot choice

ConSarnit · Post #1059 » by **ConSarnit** » Mon Nov 4, 2024 4:40 pm

Funnily enough he's playing like Trent if Gary actually kept developing his game. All the benefits of volume ATB 3pt shooting but when he actually dribbles into a midrange shot he'll make it. Getting better at getting to the rim. Still nothing to write home about when it comes to passing or rebounding but it will get better. Basically, you know, everything we hoped Trent would become.
