Any thoughts? If you can handle the occasional FT hit, sure. I actually paired him with Giannis as well but in a dynasty, fun times ahead for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He would literally be untouchable for me. Durant & Davis nah, Boogie Kyrie and Lebron, nope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah he's at least a top 10 asset in dynasty in my book, for pure rebuilding teams like mine it goes up to top 5 I'd say. Actually got him at #21 in the start up draft which I though were cheap but some others thought it was a major reach. Just imagining what he can do in his prime is just scary really, even if he never does develop his three (which I think he will eventually, albeit to maybe just 1/game).

RCRanger03 608 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 As soon a as he was mentioned out I had a big time offer to his owner. This sounds like Rookie maintenance to me from a mega cautious organization. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"silly nba rule". He's shooting 3s. Why wouldn't it count? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whos_House 32 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Because he's not measuring up and actually shooting three's, he's tossing prayers with a second left on the clock from beyond halfway. As he mentions in the article a lot of contracts are tied to statistics and percentages and players will shy away from taking that last second shot for fear or lowering their percentages. Which detracts from the spectacle of the game. Ben being 0/7 from 3's paints the illusion that he's actually taken 3's and bricked them all. In reality he's just thrown hail Mary's. 3's aren't a part of his game yet and the stats should reflect that. I'm not sure how they should tackle it, but I don't think a halfcourt prayer (whether they make it or not) should be included in the FGm/FGa/FG% categories. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
