But wouldn’t it be better to be super athletic AND still developing? Even if he meant what you said, isn’t that true about ANY 19yo? It takes a lot of mental gymnastics to view not being super-athletic as a positive in any sense.

Yeah, I’m not saying it’s some great point. 😉

Brian Cronin: He’s saying that he likes that Barrett is still growing, so there is room for him to develop physically and he isn’t already at his peak athleticism. It was just phrased rather oddly.

“Is Melo the Antichrist?”

alsep73:

Really should have gone with Caron Butler.

He’s not going to want a farewell tour to be waving from the bench. He’s going to want to play 25+ minutes a game. If you don’t play him that much it’s bad optics and will be a tedious news story all year long. So he’ll suck time from RJ at the 3, or from Mitch at the 5 (if our remaining 4s end up playing center to make room for Melo). I’d say also taking time away from seeing if Knox got any better, but I find that a difficult argument to make.

And I’m pretty sure that his idea of a farewell tour is not going to be about emulating LeBron’s latest point forward passing magic. He’ll be lofting terrible shots over Mitch and RJ’s wide-open rolls again and again. I have less than zero interest in (re)living that.

The only spin that makes sense is that he likes that RJ has to use his noggin rather than just his athleticism to succeed. Sort of saying he’s glad he isn’t Wiggins or DSjr.

Obviously the two traits aren’t mutually exclusive, so yeah, it’s a strange statement.

He’s saying that he likes that Barrett is still growing, so there is room for him to develop physically and he isn’t already at his peak athleticism. It was just phrased rather oddly.
