40 three, 80 free throw guy. It's would pretty rare for him to not develop a respectable three point shot in time.
I generally agree with this line of thinking, but that form does not translate to the NBA 3pt line. It's more of a stroke than a compact form and he's using a lot of his body to get it to the rim. It's not unlike Maxey.

Ben saw everyone having fun and all the good vibes in the first quarter and was like, "**** that, gas up the jet."
They say an analytics man doesn't have a heart, but I ran the numbers and nothing can be further from the truth - Sam Hinkie probably

Looks very Evan Turnerish. Very young though.

I don't think Kork and Joe could pull this off against a team that actually plays perimeter defense but looked very good tonight

What is not Evan Turner-ish is his handle. He's a candidate for league leader in dribbles-taken to dribbles-off-his-own-foot ratio.
Good thing our 2nd year guys are so promising cuz gonna be brutal year for the rooks.

But hopefully Sam can do what he did with Maxey last year. Mold of clay rn
Springer is gonna be a dribble-pass-shoot-defend guy at full development. Major upside. I know Sixers fans are tired of hearing this, but it's going to require patience with him.
Springer’s got bag of moves from Jimmy. Even how he create space with hopsteps and using his legs.
I dont see the Fultz comparison except pulling up at alot of those spots Fultz like to pull up from.
Fultz plays like drunken master in master arts. He looks like he’s out of control and drunk. Lures you. If you bite, he will spin and move past you. If you dont bite, he will hesi pull up at you. And he’s always either quicker than his defender (if you put a wing at him) or bigger than his defender (if you put a guard at him).
On the other hand Springer is a straight line driver. He moves mostly straight to the basket. If he can’t get pass his defender he will make a hop step, put the defender on his behind and pull up.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Agree. Nets key guys played major minutes tonight. This was impressive

Re: The Preseason. All of it.
I dont like this Nets “taking turns” offense. They’d be a lot better when they can run a free flow and surgical offense. Where they can run this “taking turns” offense down the stretch.

Re: The Preseason. All of it.
Damn Korklord appeared for his cameo now it’s back to Korkmaz for another two months. Man he can be random as lol
Also Joe is Joe. I’ll nickname him Joe Dirt Version 2.0 what a film!
Also speak of the devil (Simons) he had a good game.... dammit I want him he’s such a great shooter and can be much more than that sad face

Now without Ben, Drummond and Biid can bulldoze guys in the paint if 3s aint falling. We just need Maxey to be a 16ppg guard off creation
His name is Anfernee Simons
Or easily Cam Thomas. I feel your pain.
Maybe one day a player we like makes it to this team lol

Im still hoping Maxey can. I just feel the game is just so bogus right now that if you have maxey’s skillset and opportunity you can good scoring numbers. Its about reps and opportunity for me.
But who knows.. maybe its kork or maybe its Isaiah Joe..
