Oh I'm just comparinf their game and size and who yhey could be. I'm not saying that they already are. Go watch Iverson and LeBron in in high school, very similar at same stage.

I actually briefly thought Westbrook just because of how relentless sexton looks. On the other side, pretty much no one is as athletic as Westbrook. So ha yeah, I agree.

Iverson is in a league by himself. Watching him with the ball, even in high school was amazing. I'm not sure if there has ever been a faster player.

I think Smith will definitely get a ratings boost and possibly Jones and Petty. Smith has only played for 2 yrs and has high upside,just raw. Once the s3ason starts and people see jim more I think he gets a bump. If Petty dedicates himself, he can be a top 10 guy. The only knock on him is sometimes he doesn't always play as hard as he can.

I don't know about the Iverson lebron talk but I believe Westbrook comparison is legit. We are comparing games not saying they will be them just to give the guy some insight on their game...chill

Yeah, Iverson was one bad dude! Sexton has some dang good handles,he brreaks people's ankles on his highlights. You're right though, nobody will ever probably have his handle but Sexton is pretty close or could be in a few yrs.

Exactly...that's the reason that I said less athletic but he gets to the hole when he wants to and can shoot better than Russ could at this point.

I see where Sexton averaged 28 points a game, but I can't find anything on Petty. What does he average?

As a shooting guard?

Damn. I was hoping for around 30.
