sounds like a passive player.
same story in AAU and HS ball.
he's never been an aggressive player at any level.

And what happens when he falls on his face like Aminu?
You gonna bump them then?
Are you gonna show up and eat crow when we bump them for you?
Just curious...

Aminu was never the prospect(or at least shouldn't have been) that PJIII is. His upside accrued from his massive wing span.

At the high levels, a basketball game is complex and fast. You need to be aware of all that's happening and process how to react,respond,act.. You need to do it again a quarter second later.
some players basically know how the game works,have the physical tools, but can't keep pace and don't have the instincts or creative side to get beyond a reliance on training.
Aggressive/passive also can reflect how a player deals with the reality that the game is quite physical for anyone,and especially the big men. A guy does not need to weigh 255,but he has to be able to battle in the paint with the guys who ARE 255. Some, like PJ3,tend to avoid the dirty work,the bump and bang stuff. I remember when Marvin Williams was hyped as a great pick,a future star. Well...he had muscles. He didn't make a lot of use of them. Even in college, he really did not want to get in there and battle with the big boys. It seemed that way with Perry. Q Acy was banging inside...I was amazed to find out he is just 6-7. He plays like 6-10. Perry...plays like 6-7.

He is weak and has an undeveloped offensive game.
Anyone picking him near 7th will regret it.
