BBarton Walk-on

Sorry, He's not as quick laterally as Emery, and Yes Marty

Was a great athlete and faster than any point guard around, but he also should have been quicker laterally considering he was a 10.6 100m guy. I think that his lack of lateral quickness cost him a shot at the NBA.

Tyler had almost no lateral quickness. TJ is better than Tyler but no where near his dad. Mom was probably not a collegiate athlete. Neither have dads athletic ability. Watch a few YouTube vids on TJ. Great shooter and handler but rarely gets around athletic AAU types. Pulls up for Jumpers. Very good shooter.

If KC was a shooting guard, he wouldn't be very good.

Passes the ball beter than KC? Then that's something very new to Bryant's game.

Nothing new about Bryant being an outstanding passer. Wouldn't say he is better at that than KC but

Hmmmmmm.......Kyle has no shot playing point in the NBA

TNT

2/14/16 1:13pm

To me he projects as a three who cant shoot the three.

Y'zFan

2/14/16 1:32pm

Without shooting TNT doesn't see it

TNT

2/14/16 1:36pm

I agree. If you cant shoot the deep ball, you have a slim chance making it

Y'zFan

2/14/16 2:09pm

You can, but like I said below, you need to make up for it in another area.

That's what they said about Jack the Ripper, but he proved them wrong

CougarThug

He can barely finish strong as it is.

southernfriedcougar

2/14/16 3:05pm

He has no shot at all in the NBA.

GeraldGarner

2/14/16 1:55pm

KC needs to be at the 3. But can't shoot the way a 3 needs to.

lightmann

2/14/16 2:12pm

He demanded to play the point as a HS senior?

Dillinger

TNT has learned this much. You never can tell how a guy will do when moving

TNT

But how is Haws' handle? His bro's was not PG quality.

2/14/16 2:53pm

He has better ball-handling skills than Tyler

TNT

2/14/16 3:00pm

Too bad disinterested TNT will never watch TJ play for BYU 😞

Haws not quick enough to play the true point guard or guard an opposing point

BBarton

2/14/16 3:00pm

I totally disagree with this.

StealingHome

Yes he is quick enough to play point guard at BYU

KC has zero chance of playing PG in the NBA.

Care to explain Rajon Rondo?

2/14/16 3:02pm

An outlier

hessrp

...& KC is no outlier?

2/14/16 4:49pm

...and Jason Kidd

HootnHoller

2/14/16 5:35pm

We're not really comparing KC to Kidd and Rondo are we?

GeraldGarner

2/14/16 5:37pm

Jason Kidd shot 35% from the three and averaged 9 assists for his career.

OpusX

2/14/16 5:55pm

He also shot 38% FG and 27% 3pt his first year, and 40% FG for his career

CougarThug

2/14/16 6:02pm

can't shoot but great handles.

thebruce

2/14/16 6:22pm

He is an elite passer, was an elite defender, and could get to the rim and finis

Dillinger

Bryant a KC clone with a jump shot?

blucoug18

2/14/16 2:33pm

I doubt KC is dumb enough to think that.

southernfriedcougar

2/14/16 3:00pm

The team generally plays worse with KC out and Emery running the point.

Michicoug

2/14/16 4:30pm

well that's because KC is our best player.

thebruce

2/14/16 6:26pm

That was my response to his comment that the team would be better with Emery at

Michicoug

2/15/16 6:16am

And I'm saying byu would be just as good or better with KC playing the 4.

thebruce

2/15/16 7:08am

I don't think so. The things he does well do not include posting up. He's better

Michicoug

2/15/16 10:28am

You are way off IMO.

thebruce

2/15/16 10:53am

But the point is, pun intended, the team doesn't play well when Emery does run

Michicoug

2/15/16 12:05pm

umm yes, IMO KC plays the 4 well. Our team isn't deep.

thebruce

2/15/16 12:10pm

KC is definitely bent on being the PG...

thebruce

Hard to know if this is completely made up or bot

Coaches have been publicly comparing Elijah to KC so everyone is running with that. I don't see it either.
