Vonleh observation / concern

Watching this summer league game and it's the first full game i've watched of Vonleh. 

 

He has a great frame, athletic, and pretty coordinated but something just seems off. And I am gonna have to put this on instincts. Just seems a bit slow in reacting. This goes for offense and defense. Which is probably why he didn't do a bit better at IU. 

 

Def not a fast twitch guy compared to the Davis kid out there who was making plays all over. 

 

Can instincts and reaction be improved? I am not sure on this. He is young so I am hoping I am either dead wrong or if I am right he is able to develop / improve this over his career, preferably sooner than later.

He's a project... simple as that.

I was telling people that this draft was not as great as people were making it out to be. Outside of Parker Wiggins, and possibly Exum there are a lot of project type players in this draft.

real funny because he was top 5 material. I don't think you are a good talent evaluater.

I am not talking about his stat line / performance in one summer league game. 

 

He just looks slow (reaction wise) and sluggish to me out on the court. 

 

I have a feeling this is how he appears in every game regardless if he scored 2 points or 18. 

 

I could be wrong, and for the record I hope I am.

Exum is a project as well, he can't shoot worth diddly. He can definitely drive to the rim though.

      No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.

      I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.

      I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
