Re: Cameron Reddish
A good article from the Stepien. https://www.thestepien.com/2018/12/30/draft-notes-cam-reddish-importance-eye-level/
It analyzes why Cam Reddish has tons of TOs when dribble. He looked down to court too often and missed the target and defender, which I thought is low level mistake that only starter will have this trouble. But it seems to be other way.

Re: Cameron Reddish
He wasn't as bad as the stats in ways. He would get clean looks, get to spots at will and really put pressure on the defense but for whatever reason, we are not seeing him finish. Very Rudy Gayish at UCONN his freshman seasonDon7 wrote:Last five ;

Re: Cameron Reddish
he's been okay defensively, good length and recognition on that side but he has been brutal offensively tbh. assist-to-TO ratio really bad given his usage.

I actually think his defense has been his best skill so far this year. At the very least, it's been the most consistent at a pretty high level.

Re: Cameron Reddish
I'm at a bit of a loss with Reddish. I didn't expect him to be this bad offensively. I was more concerned about the defense coming in, and I thought if he lives up to his potential on that end then it's hard to see him not being a top 3-4 guy. I wasn't expecting a complete inability to score in 2 point range and a lack of facilitating. The latter might be a product of role a bit, though the A/TO ratio doesn't scream 'put the ball in this guys hands more' as it is, but the inefficiency is just plain damning.
I think he might be a guy whose better in the NBA, but that's not a likelihood I want to bet on. HS hype/rep is keeping his value afloat right now. For all the talk about Little underwhelming, Reddish has been worse.

Re: Cameron Reddish
Defense is the only thing that has kept him playable. Honestly if he doesn't turn it around soon, I feel like it will be pretty hard to find a good reason to take him in the lotto. I get potential and all, but let's be honest, out of all the other guys talked about at 1st round prospects, he's been by far the worst.

can't justify taking him in the lotto at this point, and unlike most people, I like this draft.

Re: Cameron Reddish
He's going to look a lot better in the NBA with more space and a reduced role.
Shot mechanics need work, but if he can tighten those up he's got a really nice foundation to be 2nd/3rd option 2-way wing.

Re: Cameron Reddish
Just rewatched the Clemson game. The 1st half might be the worst half of basketball I've seen from a projected lotto guy in the last couple years.
The 2nd half gave me a little light at the end of the tunnel though. He was still playing hard nosed D (that's big that he kept that energy on that end even with the horrible offense), I've actually been quite blown away with his defense, I think he has been tremendous on that end. And he also had the two strongest takes I've seen from him attacking the basket. One he made a nice long layup and the other he got fouled. He had the nice finesse layups against Auburn, but these two were there first 2 strong attempts I've seen him take.
Again it's a small light, just looking for any light at the end of the tunnel for this kid, it's been a really rough last two months for him on the court and I think it's taking its toll on him. He looked shook in that first half.

Re: Cameron Reddish
Cam in the first 4 minutes of tonights game. 3 touches and 2 turnovers. Just wow. The guy looks like he is second guessing not every basketball move, but every movement of his body. Its so weird.

Even in garbage time when he had a chance to get it going with RJ and Zion out for the night — nope. He’d catch it on the perimeter, make a spasmic little non-move, then pass out. It’s beyond frustrating. I’d love to know what’s going on inside his head.

Sounds good to me. I'd like to see him be the next one in a long line of Marks' draft day steals.

for sure. there is a lot of untapped potential with Cam (as well as Nas) and if they can land in a situation that can unlock it, look out. I just can't justify spending a lotto pick on him at this point, but that could obviously change.

Re: Cameron Reddish
I disagree with most. Love Reddish. His main issues are that he’s trying to do a little too much with the ball, and decent looks just aren’t falling.
But his quickness, length, ball handling ability, shot mechanics, and defense make him an easy top 10 pick for me, borderline top 5. A lot of risk - figuring out the cause of the shot problem and if it is fixable, but a lot of upside - a better version of Batum or Middleton.
Actually like him long term more than Barrett, who gives me a Rodney Hood/ Jabari Parker vibe (though more aggressive).

Sadly, you need to watch more RECENT film. Your Draftexpress report is from 1 year ago for an high school kids. A high school kids can develop a lot in couple of months. RJ Barrett recently joined Canadian team playing two friend game with China and two FIBA America world cup game, and made 8-9, 7-9, 4-5, 5-7 free throws in these 4 games. And without doubt, China, Dominica and Virgin Islands NATIONAL TEAM are much more better and more persuasive stats than your outdated April 2017 report data. In a nutshell. I don't really worry about RJ Barrett's free throw at all.
Looks like you have no idea what you're talking and you are just going off off youtube rather than watching real games of Barrett like what i do. I wouldn't comment especially if you don't know what you're talking about.
Barrett had another bad shooting game, and no surprise to m, also another bad free throw shooting game. Going 7 for 14 from the free throw line against a D3 team. (1 for 9 from college three)
Barretts a great 'college' athlete, but for now just looks more like another Harrison Barnes, or Justice Winslow.
Nice for you to wait a whole month to try to reply my post. There are two more games tonight and Sunday. And please go back to check your local ophthalmologist. Either you cannot read the stats sheet correctly or you are full of **** lairs. The free throw and three stats are wrong...

2nd preseason game for Duke and RJ Barrett. Still another poor shooting night for Barrett going for 1 for 5 from the free throw line, and 3 for 9 from college three. I don't know what is wrong with your nutshell, maybe you should find a ophthalmologist to help you out.
So you admit you were deliberately reporting wrong stats about FT and 3 pts, which make you a liar.
The 2nd game is VS UTronto, and RJ is 3 for 8 about 3 pt shooting. Go back do your homework, then write your post. You are welcome. https://twitter.com/search?q=duke%20toronto%20stats&src=typd
Its obvious you don't know basketball. Barrett shot is broken, he is another Justice Winslow. The only positive about Barrett is that he doesn't fear chucking.
Zion is the MVP of Duke
Cam and his shooting is the Most Important Player of Duke, it became painfully obvious in the Syracuse game when Duke had nobody who could hit a three against an unranked team in a home game.
and Barrett is just left hanging as the 3rd man out.

Re: Cameron Reddish
Reddish needs to have a unanimous drop in stock across all of the draft sites.
Something tells me he'll start hitting his shots again once he sees that. Duke will not win a title unless Cam is one of the best shooters in the country.

Re: Cameron Reddish
what's the difference between MVP and most important player.
Cam is two things away from being a legit elite prospect: a better handle and a more consistent shot. obviously easier said than done but the baseline talent is there in spades
other than Jones, he's been Duke's most impressive defender IMO.

Cam is in a 2nd tier all by himself if he can do those two things. You can see it in his movements, the dude just has so much potential. Just can't put it all together right now.
