i think less than halfway into anyone's first season in any sport is waaay to soon to label anyone a bust. and i don't think alot of people felt he'd be an immediate impact player. And he will probably never be a superstar either, he just has to find his role so we'll see. but fuck that bitch and that shot he made
 
he's only played in what 15 games. too early to call him a bust. i like his game but he does have to work on the form in his jumper, needs to get stronger and become a more willing passer.
 
yeah pretty much the defintion of austin rivers is a kid who thinks he's a superstar with no actual ability to be a superstar.

and its not like hes kyrie who makes up for his slight lack of athleticism/explosiveness with an incredibly high bbiq, a sweet shot, and an impeccable ability to score. in fact hes pretty much the opposite of kyrie in every way.
 
wont call him a bust just yet but it is interesting that i haven't heard much about him so far this season considering the hype he got coming in....is he even starting?

what's Davis' #'s looking like?

he's frail. can't get him back on the court cause of a sore ankle

davis has been good when he's played but he can't stay healthy. I never thought rivers was gonna be shit but it's too early to call him a bust. I actually think his confidence hurts him, he thinks he's better than he is. He's not a great defender, he can't get to the hoop like he did at duke and he doesn't have an nba body. If Monty and Doc weren't good friends I doubt NO even drafts him...
 
Bradley Beal can't shoot I'm ready for his ass to go already my bad i just go off on wizards rants for know reason

Yea Rivers career path not looking great but it's too early to go all out bust on him. he just gotta improve
 
So Rivers who's only 20 is a bust after 15 games....interesting

i don't think he'll be a star but he can def. become a Lou Williams type player , that's not a bust.

he'll be a 14-16ppg player eventually

No , he's only played 15 games and has been fighting injuries since draft workouts I'll give him a couple of seasons to figure what his niche is going to be in the league.
 
Rivers is getting 27.0 mpg really??? Im rooting for him to do better but he probably should have stayed in school I dont see him being more than journeyman scorer but he got to get his mid range game together

man i had never even heard of bradley beal until the draft came around. alot of these players need to stay in school longer than a year

Beal won National Gatorade HS Player of the year , and he was nice at UF you could see what they like about him.

Beal is gonna be really good , People expect way too many of these 19/20 year olds to step in right away and average 23ppg from the jump and fail to realize how hard the NBA is and how big of an adjustment it is.
 
I dont know how anybody couldn't see this coming

Im almost positive im on record on here when he came out saying it wasnt smart

Dude is not a good basketball player
