The Official John Collins ROY Watch thread

One of the best college players in the country last year at Oregon.
 
Brooks was awesome last night. 4 year college player who has been ready to play since he got to training camp. Missed a shot late in the game and ran down his own miss, which pretty much iced the game. That will win over the hearts of Memphis fans immediately. Looks like a great 2nd round pick.
 
Not sure why Brooks wasn't the Pac-10 senior wing the Spurs took at the end of the first. I'm still pissed they didn't take Bell from Oregon. Whatever.

This is going to be a fun deep rookie class to watch.
 

The amount of "Chris isn't going to work on the Rockets" hot takes out there after one game (in which they beat the "greatest team of all time" on their home floor) is astounding. Yeah they haven't figured out CP3's role when Harden is on the floor but they played close to 30 minutes separately and CP3 led the comeback with Harden on the bench despite having a shitty shooting night.
 
As if Puke bball players haven't done countless alley-oops and reverse dunks at or near the buzzer while up big.......... or thrown elbows to faces when down big at the end. K lecturing on sportsmanship is like.... I can't even think of an analogous situation. Maybe Stalin lecturing Mother Theresa on kindness and ethics.

Didn't he make like a 35 footer with 8 seconds left and Oregon was up big? I thought the drama was over the shot, not the celebration.

Those are steaming hot takes. Part of the beauty of having CP is being able to sit Harden more.

Don't tell Ayo. That dude was convinced this draft is full of busts.
 
 
Maybe means the extra game checks that come with making the playoffs? No clue, but the second contract is as good a guess as any.

He’ll work as a bench player/sixth man. He’s pointless with Harden because he isn’t a good enough defender anymore to justify slowing down the offense as much as he does. They’ll figure it out but Paul’s career as THE GUY is over.
