how do you know?

Kris is taller then 6'4"

 

[Freshtown]

Seems like Dame might have influenced this as well

 

[LayneStaley]

lol

 

[Ed O]

Yeah but why? Is one twin really that more athletic than the other?

Look at the stats I posted above. Keegan is just a much, much better player than Kris. Why that is, I don't know but it's hard to deny.

No doubt Keegan is better...he played in front of his twin sort of like Amen and Ausar Thompson...the good is that his jr year Kris played almost as well as Keegan did earlier on. At 23 that's worth a shot.

3 and D guy. Role players…..how to build a roster

also a rebounder and good passer

he's a big !! Portland might grab more then 1 offensive rebound

I hear you. There's no "h" in "Kris", though, just so you know

Great pick IMO

 

[TheGoldRanger]

Great pick IMO

I agree.

We may have a "run you outta the gym" bench mob this season

Hard to deny?

Comparing their last year...who had way more rebounds?

Yes Keegan was a much better 3pt shooter but Kris scored more with a better 2pt %

 

[tykendo]

Great pick IMO

1st time i've been happy all day. I think Kris will surprise. He's ready NOW! Nice pick.

He scored less than Keegan on worse efficiency lol.

Sounds like when the Heat took Shabazz Napier cause LeBron loved his game lol.

You guys are right. Not sure what I was looking at.

What are you talking about?

Kris:


Keegan:


Points: Keegan led 23.5 to 20.2
Rebounds: Keegan led 8.7 to 7.9
2p%: Keegan led 62.1% to 58.3%

I think you're confused or not reading the stats correctly.

Edit: sorry for being so abrupt. I replied before I saw the other replied. Hard to keep up tonight *hugs*

If there are brothers in the league, you can bet the Blazers will get the least of each of them.

Seems logical to me. One dude was a top 5 pick and the other was 23

 

[KeepOnRollin]

None of that means Kris can't be a good player though. Solid pickup.

i've said before the right move for guys in late first round is to go after upperclassmen who have some sorta pedigree in college.

just don't think murray has NBA chops, but it is what it is.

 

[cheesehoff]

I wonder if Billups saw a Tayshaun Prince clone with Murray?

 

[Whyachi]

I hear you. There's no "h" in "Kris", though, just so you know

I'm pretty sure I saw an Ed O poll spelling Damian Lillard > Damien

 

[Paine Tablet]

also a rebounder and good passer

2 assists per game on almost 16 shots a game. He has the ball, quite apparently, but 2 assists does not suggest that he is good at passing it for buckets. Also, 7.9 rebounds at his height is kind of meh to me. Not terrible by any stretch, but nothing screams that he's a good rebounder.

When you want to do a troll petition, you have to give some indication it's not serious. Spelling Lillard's and Sharpe's first names incorrectly should have been an indication to anyone who knows me that it wasn't a serious petition.

The scouting report I read said he was an extremely good rebounder and a very accurate passer...good passer...in Iowa he was the go to guy his jr year so he wasn't a distributer...he's 6'9..report said he was NBA ready. I saw him play maybe 3 games so I'm going on scouting reports. I think he's a total player with good instincts
