For you guys comparing Harris to Powell because you clearly only know Raptors players (smh), its a bad comparison. Plays more like Jordan Clarkson but he has more playmaking ability. Powell is a straightline driver, north south guy, pull out outside of the three point line and pull up, transition scorer. Harris is an iso creator. He creates plays and he doesnt trap himself, much better ballhandler, similar athleticism.

Whether he will end up as good as Powell who knows but they are very different.

Yes they did. You miss it? Keep laughing hes gonna be the steal of the draft.

No they didn't. They came back from commercial having already missed the pick, and then just showed a picture with his name underneath. They spoke about him for about 10-15 seconds and then moved on to another commercial.

One more vid coming. Gotta find it was looking for it the other day. Its the Rico Hines workout where Lamelo was wearing a pink tank top. He was dunking on everyone and dropping threes.

Thought of this comp when I watched his highlights last week.

He'll take contact and get to the line. Another guard. Norm replacement

Apparently his issue is off ball and his commitment on defence according to what I've read.

Not agreeing with the Powell comparison. I see more Evan Turner with not as much size and strength, but much better shooting and range.

Joe Rose?

He looks a lot smoother/more in control than Norm. A lot closer to looking like Wade than Norm did coming out of the draft.
