You're certainly not alone and I'm probably in the minority, but we'll have to agree to disagree about that one.
All of your (valid) gripes about RJ's self-creation to this point, are just as true about Hali except Hali hasn't shown the kind of progress at the NBA level that RJ has...so far...not to mention that RJ is the younger of the two. I wouldn't do that straight up and I don't view Julius as a negative asset, dumping whom would make up the difference.
Agree to disagree. Won't go into the specifics unless you're interested in a more in-depth convo about it.
Not really looking to get into a big debate about it so I probably won't respond with an essay, but if you've got the time and quote me when you post your thoughts, I'll definitely take a look and see if you don't change my mind.
Hali touches a lot of my buttons, but I'm starting to wonder if I just don't place enough value on self-creation with kids...and Hali (like RJ, Pat & Ziaire Williams) feels like a poster boy for the kind of kid I over-rate in this sport.
He's certainly much more efficient than RJ, but when I watch Hali, I see even less self-creation skils than what we've been seeing out of RJ recently.
