The offense wasn't terrible, it was just tailored to focus on defense, kinda like Coach Thibs and the Bulls (when Rose is healthy).

Stop it, in key moments their was no motion in the offense just lebron iso at the top & wait for a double or take his man 1 on 1, tailored to focus on defense is a terrible cop out

Umm thats's be they only had LeBron! The 2nd option was Mo Williams, who was role player previously before coming to Cleveland and a spot up shooter. You can't blame a coach for lack of talent on the roster. Scott Brooks has KD, Westbrook, and at one point James Harden, and still couldn't close out games. Mike Brown, had back to back 60+ win seasons. LeBron is one of the all-time greats, but he's not winning 60+ games with just any average coach.

Sometimes I think about making a fake draft prospect and get a bunch of NTers in on it to hype the guy up and call him a "sleeper" and "break out" player, just to see how many people pretend to know the guy and comment on him.

Sometime Draftexpress and NBAdraft.net have the most bizarre conclusions. I feel like they troll hardcore at times, especially with NBAdraft.net's comparisons

Somewhat, I mean they are who they are for a reason. But yeah, their word isn't gospel by any means

NBAdraft.net is great with keeping up with trades and still has a nice database for eligible draftees. That's more what I use it for. Don't take their comparisons too seriously but they do other things decently.

nbadraft.net used to be my go-to site before DX and ESPN took over.

To be honest, those draft express videos are almost all you need. From there, you can make your own evaluations. Will his strength translate to the next level? Can he improve on his weaknesses? Are his weaknesses the kind of stuff that'll make him fail or just be a minor detail? DX doesn't really make any crazy conclusions like NBA Draft does. They're normally outrageously conservative and just let the film/stats/scouting reports speak for themselves.

Flashback to Wiggins Senior Year
is the "potential" there for him to have an elite handle?

Considering that was a high school mix and he really didn't show much handle in the vid anyway...

pretty muchI mean, I'm not a regular in the CBB thread and don't get to watch as much as I would like.. so for guys I'm not really familiar with.. I'll try not to make outlandish comparisons or act like my analysis is 100% factual
It's okay to say "I don't know a lot about this guy"shoeking2101

Considering a role where he was actually the star player, and not playing a mario chalmers esque role. The kid shoulda never been in college.
