Kyle Collingsworth only had a brief NBA career. But Hall will?

TNT

11:42am

Strictly as a PG, he's more qualified than Kyle in all things NBA except size, imo.

SinkingQuffa

11:44am

Kyle was a much better athlete

TNT

11:45am

I wouldn't say much better. His length & height made it seem so. They're both okay athletes w/ better-than-ave strength.

SinkingQuffa

11:49am

That is not accurate at all

Charles Darwin

11:56am

So KC was quicker than Hall? (Not really.) Faster than Hall? (Not really.) More vertical than Hall? If he were,

SinkingQuffa

11:58am

Too Slow to be an NBA PG, Too Poor a Shooter to be Anything Else

Homo Erectus

11:50am

His shooting was too limited. That's what killed his chance to stay

TNT

11:50am

Hall has better handles and is a better shooter. I don't think he makes the NBA

johnnybyu

11:50am

Don't disagree there

TNT

11:50am

KC was way more athletic and at least as good as a passer.

Charles Darwin

11:52am

Had KC been 6'2-6'3 — even w his superior reach — I doubt you'd confuse him as a much better athlete than Hall.

SinkingQuffa

11:56am

If he keeps improving his shooting, he has a chance. It's not a great chance

rcbyufan

11:44am

Like you said wingspan is important in the NBA. And the shorter you are

TNT

11:46am

I think predicting an NBA career may be the hardest thing to do in sports.

Thrill

11:52am

It's unfair in a way. Now that it's a world league the talent pool is crazy

TNT

once you carve out a role and last for ~2-3 years, you tend to stay

One of the holes I see in Hall's game is finishing around the rim.

He's an idiot for even asking that question. Young is coaching in the playoffs.
