Thomas was also a good starter in only 2 seasons of his career and it was on his third team. If you told me Isaiah Thomas was completely healthy I wouldn't want him on the magic. You have to build around him so much for only moderate gain. Guys like that pick up a couple typical regular season sprained ankles or tendonitis and their game falls off a cliff.

Basically, at best I think he will be a very good offensive player whose defensive deficiencies make his actual impact difficult to ascertain. This is fair.

That's a completely subjective stance considering that his freshman year is better than either players 2nd 3rd or 4th years. he's an outlier player who's upside is higher than either players respectively at the same age Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both are outrageously stupid comparisons. If you asked me if I think Young has a better chance of winning a league MVP or being out of the league in 5 years—id say be out of the league in 5 years. Neither super likely. I see more of a Monta Ellis with better passing but even less driving ability. No defense. Bad shot selection. Terrible efficiency. He’ll have moments but too many deficiencies to win with. Do i truly think he’ll be Jimmer? No. Not entirely. But saying he’s the next Curry is even more dumb.

If we take him we should grab another PG in the 2nd too in case he's a bust. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
