I'll say it until he proves me otherwise, Rozier OVERRATED. I actually watched a bit of Cardinal basketball and Rozier never jumped off the screen to me. He could prove me wrong, but so far not even that impressed with him in the d-league.
Hunter just a gut feeling he's going to be a J.J. Redick at best but could also be a Jimmer Fredette and be a great shooter but just can't make it.
How can you say that a guy who got drafted in the middle of the first round, after projecting to go late first round, is overrated? Especially when said player is an elite athlete who can score and defend.
As for Hunter, I don't get this comparison - he's nothing like Reddick. Reddick never had the tools (at 6'4" with a short wingspan and limited athleticism) to be a good defensive player.
Hunter has excellent size for a SG (6'6" with a 6'10" wingspan) and decent (if not outstanding) athleticism, which gives him pretty good defensive potential. i see him being able to defend positions 1-3 with little trouble. The potential to become a 2-way player does (IMHO) make him a very different player to Reddick. If Hunter can put on muscle mass he has impressive potential.
Rozier I just think is overrated to where he was taken, as I said he never jumped off the screen. Yes, he's a defensive minded point guard, which he's not even truly a point guard, an undersized guard. Just because he's athletic doesn't mean he can't be overrated.
I didn't say J.J. Riddick was a bad thing. He can be a pure scorer which is what Hunter was in college, a shooter. All you said is potential, any player has the ability to have potential. Just because he has size, doesn't mean he will. You're argument is also using the weird IF he does something.
