Lol, Vasquez prolly telling him how he has half his ability and he's 10X better than him. Some dude on bleacher report said he should get an F grade because he's a volume scorer who can't score. Well damn...

Lmao @ the stats for this month.... How you average 2.9pts on 27% Fg???? Shit is jus sad, but i hope he does turnout to be raw down the road and not a bust.....

it still amazes me some didnt see this coming

Forget Duke, you could watch the HS tapes and see this coming

Maybe he can become a 16 ppg player down the line but anything better than that is overachieving for him

Random but somebody like Rashad McCants was twice as good as this dude but got half the hype

soooo...exactly how many games have you non hornets/pelicans fans actually watched? I would bet you've seen more box scores than games...but i actually agree with a lot of you...he should've stayed in school, but i've asked this to coworkers and other people who have called him a bust only at the midway point of the season...who else was the hornets going to take at 10? Should they have traded the pick? With who? And who do they still pick?

i dont think anybody that knows a lick about basketball expected rivers to be the next AI or kobe or ~insert star player~...well let me speak for myself...i knew this was going to be a rough season for him...but he does a lot of things off ball that dont go into the stat sheet...

These are the areas he needs to improve on in the offseason and even if he does, i dont really expect him to be an impact to maybe year 3..

-get stronger

-improve FTs

-improve scoring at the basket after contact (see first improvement listed)

-mid range jumper instead of doing that 20ft floater

this is what commentators say for their favorite white boy benchwarmers...........Its not just bad its a historically bad season with amount of minutes especially he was getting b4 Jan he was avg like 24 mins per game with @ least showing some potential. Im rooting for the kid but its hard to watch him play ball out there

It's to early to call him a bust, but He shoulda stayed in college another year or 2,I have no idea why rivers left after one season His fam isn't hurtin for dough

Damn you took the words right out my mouth where was Doc you can't tell me Doc didn't know he wasn't ready

Was niggas really that gassed after he made that shot against Carolina?
