 Do you have a parasocial relationship with Basketball Players or something? 

Nah just a fair minded individual.

 

How can a less successful person call a more successful person a loser?

 

Kid 20 years old and now has generational wealth. If that's a loser then damn I want to experience that.

I honestly dont understand why Scoot is the better nba prospect. Never have. Whatever. Miller should be a stud 

Hard to describe. When you watch him, you can tell he wants to be the best and just has that IT factor. Super explosive and athletic and can dunk on 6'9" defenders. While I don't think Miller is going to be bad and is going to be solid player, I think Scoot has that mentality you want on your team. 

I also like watching basketball for entertainment 1st and love watching those kind of players so I am biased.

So Scoot has the "it factor" because he's athletic and can dunk on 6'9 defenders?

 

No disrespect, but if that's your reason for having the "it factor" then half the NBA has those players. 

 

Scoot needs to develop a jumpshot. All that dunking is cool, but to win games you need to be able to shoot the basketball. Miller is arguably the best shooter in this draft. When you need a bucket Miller will always be a threat because of his shot making ability. 

 

Scoot is the more exciting player, but Miller to me is the better overall player at 6'9 with guard skills and 3pt shot making ability. I think he will end up being a better player when all is said and done.

I don't see it either, a short athletic guard who can't shoot. Guess I'm missing something. It's like wanting Westbrook over Curry or Durant.

It’s like @WOW!!said. Scoot’s marketing team has him hyped up for years now. He actually didn’t progress as much this year as people projected but no one seems to care. He is a highlight reel which is what most of his fans see, but a 3 and D 6’9” shooter who has handles is a much more rare thing to come by. We already have a taller Scoot in Melo.

Harold Miner should have been the best SG ever by that definition…

Exactly!

 

We as fans fall in love with the athletic rim attacking guards. I get it they are fun to watch, but every single one of them have never won a championship. They simply sell tickets and play exciting style basketball. At the end of the day can you shoot the basketball and make shots in late game situations when teams pack the paint to stop you from driving. It all comes down to is shot making.

Yes .. I like Scoot as a prospect but the analysis of his talents have gone overboard and possibly could set this kid up for failure.. Just based on living up to unrealistic expectations..

Yes and the reality ppl don’t talk about is once the athleticism goes.. That player becomes a bad contract or a backup journey man.. If they don’t add the other stuff to their game..
