Perry Jones III. Jones had an ACL tear in college that derailed his career but showed flashes of his talent level with the Thunder. McCullough has a mirroring skill set.

How about for Memphis Shareef Abdur Rahim for upside?

I think he was a back to the basket type?

It doesn't look to me like CMC is going become like that.

He's probably closer to a Stroshow who can shoot and rebound?

That would be incredible, but Shareef was a close to unstoppable midrange scorer who happened to be on bad teams. Physically there is a resemblance but not so much in their play.

Shareef Abdur Rahim was a stud. Let's not get ahead of ourselves, Chris has a long ways to go.

He looks like a totally different player from the kid we saw last year. I want him to get some serious NBA reps in another few weeks. I think it's time.

I know things are bad right now, but the Nets have four young kids with MAJOR upside on this roster. We're hopefully going to add another one in the summer.

Things aren't as bad as people think. We could end up being a better team in a few years that we expected if they all pan out properly.

I am pretty certain that if we didn't have a D-League team like the previous years, CMC would've just languished on the bench getting no reps. Glad we finally have one now.

I don't believe Sean Marks takes the job without a D league franchise being purchased. Major props to Prokhorov.

The initial glimpse of Brooklyn’s utilization of Long Island was seen at the start of the D-League season where they assigned McCullough for the team’s debut against the Windy City Bulls. McCullough impressed during that initial game for the Nets as he put up 16 points on 6-11 from the field and 1-2 from beyond the arc.

Since then, McCullough has spent most of his time moving between Brooklyn and Long Island. With the Long Island Nets, McCullough continuously impresses as he’s currently averaging 19.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game on 48% from the field and 36% from beyond the arc. As evident from those impressive numbers, McCullough has shined as a very versatile offensive weapon that’s both effective from the perimeter and inside the paint.

From a perimeter perspective, McCullough shows incredible confidence with shooting from well beyond the NBA three-point line. For a 2nd year player that rarely ventured out to shooting from beyond the arc before this season, McCullough has impressed with how effective he’s been from beyond the arc. McCullough’s confidence and efficiency is definitely warranted as the 6’9 forward has a quick shooting stroke with a high release point.

After fifteen games with the Long Island Nets, Chris McCullough has arguably played his basketball since he was in high school. While that’s probably not enough for him to transition into the Nets rotation, McCullough has shined as someone that you should keep a close eye on, whether or not you’re a fan of the Brooklyn Nets.

With Long Island, McCullough has shown himself as someone that can take that spot-up three or make that quick on-ball cut. Those skills have allowed him to be one of the most exciting players in the NBADL. Hopefully soon, NBA fans can feel that same type of excitement around McCullough that D-League enthusiasts currently experience.

Honestly, when will he be put into the regular line up? it's time for him to get NBA reps.

Net Sentence wrote:McCullough is 6'9"-6'10" and is one of the fastest players on the floor who can also jump through the roof. God only makes a handful of guys like this. Add in a smooth jumper to go with that athleticism and you have all the ingredients for a superstar.

That sounds like a description of Anthony Randolph

vincecarter4pres · Post #280 » by **vincecarter4pres** » Mon Feb 6, 2017 9:07 pm

Honestly, I feel like he must be really awful if he can't get a call up and some legit and consistent burn at this point, on this Siberian roster.

Like they're scared he's going to suck so bad again at this level that it will either shatter his confidence or submarine his trade value to the depths of unrecoverable.
