JR Smith Top 5 young guys

[twobullz]

Just saw this and thought it was interesting that he picked Ant as one of his top 5 young guys. I question him leaving off Shai and Edwards up in Minnesota, but wonder if Ant has more trade value around the league then maybe we think? This is just J R Smiths list off the top of his head, but Ant was the third name he came up with .

Yeah we should keep Ant unless it's a star. Dumping him for an average role player could literally be Jermaine 2.0

Poole is garbage so this calls into question his judgement.

JR Smith doesn’t know shit imo, that’s like anyone in this forum making a list.

I doubt that Smith is a good gauge of player value. Maybe better than most here....maybe not

it's a really stupid list anyhow. Ant is essentially 24, and Doncic is 24, so what is the cut-off? Say 25 and under?

Michael Porter Jr.
Desmond Bane
Jaren Jackson
DeAndre Ayton
Austin Reaves
Anthony Edwards
Zion
Trey Murphy
SGA
Josh Giddey
Lauri Markkanen (just under the wire)
Kevin Porter Jr
Jalen Green
Keldon Johnson
Devin Vassell
Jaysun Tatum
Darius Garland
Evan Mobley
Jarret Allen
RJ Barrett
Bam Adebayo
Tyler Herro
Trae Young
Scottie Barnes
OG Anunoby
Tyreses Haliburton
Paolo Banchero
Franz Wagner
Wendal Carter Jr
Lamelo Ball
Cade Cunningham

there are a bunch of young guys better than Ant. And there are even more when you add the players with more value because of position and length

What he meant was, top 5 guys LIKE ME - i.e., no-defense gunners who will kill your team.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

[Whyachi]

I sat next to the guy in the green at the Celtics game (in Boston) and couldn't figure out who he was for the life of me. Super cool guy and he was rooting for the Blazers, so we hit if off!
