Message: [QUOTE="rip7774, post: 2373832, member: 320"] I am biased since I know Tacko and his family, but he has good hands and a good offensive arsenal (hook shots with either hand). He works at his craft, he started the year in a huge slump at the FT line and reworked his stroke and improved dramatically. You have to remember BJ Taylor is a shoot first second and third point guard in my opinion. I would be at games and my guy Matt Williams would hit 3 3's to start the game and never see the ball again until the second half. Taylor pounds the ball non stop and while a terrific talent, does not distribute nor does the staff push him to in my estimation (no inside info). His development really reminds me of Thabeet. Starter but limited offensive impact as freshman, big jump his sophomore year, although they got away from him as the season progressed for some reason after dominating early. Certainly remains to be seen if he makes that colossal jump HT did his junior year to be one of the best players in America. And I'm not projecting that just saying the first 2 years were quite similar. May not be possible with BJ Taylor not distributing like a PG. Plus they added a ton of high major transfers that sat out last year. There is a lot to like if they find a shooter to replace Matt Williams, who was a great kid as well. [/QUOTE]
