Message: [QUOTE="Excalibur, post: 3407780, member: 62"] This is what I wrote in another thread: "We're not getting Ja Morant. He's not an explosive athlete. Cole is crafty, deceptively quick and strong, has a very high basketball IQ and strong handle. Quick release on his jump shot and can create space for his shot but is a streaky shooter." He can absolutely play against top level competition. He dropped 27 against Indiana and Georgetown. I think 15 and 5 is a bit much to expect, but 12-13 and 4 or 5 is reasonable. His ceiling will depend on whether he can consistently finish in traffic against high major bigs. Those thinking that we're getting another Tarin Smith or that he's a backup at this level are too dumb to engage with. [/QUOTE]
