In college he comped with Bruce Brown, Kemba Walker, and SGA. Last season he comped with Bruce Bowen and Andre Iguodala.Skybox wrote:AB looking good...realistically, how high can he ascend?

My projection for him at the moment is Ingles with elite defense but less sharpshooting and more driving. Lonzo Ball-ish.
I’ll be interested to see how much he can improve his scoring since he really doesn’t have any consistent moves yet. Once he finds a spot he likes to score from he can build on that.

He played great against IND but he kinda disappeared the past 2 ganes before that.
I want him to do it every game. Not be like a MoeSwag where he looks like white-hakeem for 1 game followed by 3 games of Pat Garrity.

Unfortunately, for whatever reason, and believe me, we finger pointed the reasons ALL last season. This is Blacks first NBA go at ball handling PG / Point Foward / Whatever.
On top of that, he has been given more opportunity in the first 9 games then all last season combined. I wish he would suddenly blow up for 18ppg too, but this whole "wish he brings us consistency" is both a shared sentiment, but also a super unrealistic one. The time to unfortunately do some of that was sacrificially last year.
Now, with the stakes raised, and again I repeat before Paolo injury the amount of faith Mose put in him was already night and day being the second unit player of the bench. This is like whiplash levels of responsibility. Combine that with suddenly you become 1 tier higher on the scoring depth chart while still being a facilitator. Well. We are going to take our much needed lumps for him to figure it out.

Im not talking about getting near career-highs from him every game. The consistency Im talking about is showing you belong. Do not disappear and look like a GL-call up in some games but get revenge with a big game in the next.
But I guess I am giving a pass esp cuz of Paolo out. Seems like the entire team cannot function well without him. Also.. I admit these 6-9 games are a small sample size. We will see in game 20.
