Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 + scott skiles had brandon jennings and ben gordon... gunners Nothing to do with being a gunner. Hezonja's biggest issue is his attitude or at least the perception of his attitude. Sticking that with a hard ass coach vs a nurturing coach increases that risk. It's more of a gamble than it was pre Skiles. Of course that's the same thing you'd get with thibs. That's not something you have to worry about with Winslow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not something you have to worry about with Winslow It funny to me. I dont see the same upside in winslow. Maybe it is the 6'4 thing or 6'6 with shoe. I do like his defense. I think I like his euro step the most. I am not sold on his shooting. His shooting reminds me of vics coming out. 40%+ in college, because of small sample size.

Very different shooting issues from Vic's. And I think Vic is getting better, to the point that within the next two seasons I expect him to be respectable. Winslow's problems are all about consistency with his release, as much as I can see. That's why he's so bad shooting off the dribble, and why I think it is a problem that can be fixed. Consistency will come with continued hard work and time and drills with a shooting coach. Winslow could be huge if he fixes his shot. He has literally everything else. It's why I liked the Vic pick, and it's why I would like the Winslow pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well the whole thing with Winslow is very Oladipo-like. He's not the most gifted player in the draft but he's got the best chance to be good. He's got enough physical tools to pair with his iq and work ethic that he's probably the safest player in the draft. I'd be shocked if Winslow was a bust where you wouldn't say the same thing about towns or Mudiay or wcs or Hezonja. That's where his value comes from.

Catman 380 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 I just wonder if Stanley Johnson will be a better pro than Winslow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin Jaudon 221 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 I just wonder if Stanley Johnson will be a better pro than Winslow. Very possible. Johnson is already a better range shooter and just as good if not better defender. Could be the best three-and-D guy in the league in a few years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could be the best three-and-D guy in the league in a few years. Just my opinion but I think Winslow is clearly the better defender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been seeing a lot of people question Winslow's 3pt shooting percentage but I don't it's warranted. He shot the 3 a good amount of times in college, and about 40% more than Oladipo did his last year at IU with 110 attempts to Oladipo's 68. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
