While I am one of the biggest Suggs haters at the moment, I really dont understand how Green and Cade get a pass for playing awful so far, but Suggs gets bashed so bad that he falls out of the top 10? The 3 of them have all had good games, with the majority of their games being very bad.
Cade- 34%FG 24%3pt 13ppg 5ast 6rebs 31mpg
Green- 37%FG 27%3pt 14ppg 2ast 3reb 32mpg
Suggs- 32%FG 25%3pt 12ppg 3ast 3reb 27mpg
These three have all played bad. If Sugg falls out of top 10 how can the other two remain in top 3?
Fans are always looking for flashes, those games where a young player demonstrates his potential even if he can't repeat it. I'm not sure Suggs has put together one complete game (box score wise) so far, and that's likely why people are down on him.
Not to mention, but Suggs as a PG prospect is expected to do more than Green as a SG prospect ... but if we take things like defense and +/- in to account there's a strong case to put Suggs over Green.
This but I will say Green isn't playing with a real PG. Cade also has strung together more good games than Suggs without a co creator like Cole Anthony to ease the burden and less shooting on the roster.
Suggs isnt a PG, he is a SG. This is how I know people only check the box score. Calling Cole Anthony a creator is laughable! Cole is a scoring guard which hurts Suggs more than anything. Cole tries to get Cole involved and everyone else is an after thought. Suggs has also put a few good games together, Raptors , Brooklyn and has put up really good halves. I think playing with a true PG like Fultz will help Suggs.
