Did anyone else watch the game on ESPN today?
I was really impressed with both.
They are comparing Scoot to a young Derrick Rose.
Victor reminds me of a taller Giannis.
Does anyone know their final stats for the two?

Don't remember Giannis ever shooting the ball like Victor does to be honest... he hit 7 triples today if I'm not mistaken.

Scoot is already a better shooter than Rose too. He does look like him when getting to the rim though.
Victor looks incredible. Again, already a much better shooter than any other comparison aside from "7'4 KD". Obviously he doesn't (yet) have the shot creating of KD, the shot is smooth.
Top two picks next season are gonna be worth the tank

To be honest, I don't think Giannis has ever shot the ball as well as Victor does; if memory serves, he made 7 triples today.

France could win gold at the Olympics with the team they're producing

They'd have the tools to win through to any final but I’d always worry about their resilience and ability to handle pressure.
Traditionally, they’d be great when things were going well, but tended to get narky when not. They played with much more emotion than, say, the US, Germany, Serbia or Australia

Yes emotion does get the French teams but even there football team became world champions after having been great for years but falling. France like most countries now has a wide mix of nationalities now making the selection pool massive.

What can really be funny is if the Lakers miss the playoffs again and win the lottery, New Orleans can swap the pick and get Wanbayama.
