I'm not seeing the big deal about him, personally.
Seems like he could be a solid player, but his jumper looks broke, he turns it over a bunch, and he gets about half of his shots swatted when he takes it at the rim.
And yes, I know that he's a rookie and rookies make mistakes.
I'm wondering if you guys are sold, not sold or if the jury is still out on Stuckey.
Is he a future SUPERSTAR, as we have been promised?
I like the kid a lot. His jumper will come, and his mistakes will go down. He is still in the first 15 games of his career. The thing that sticks out the most with him is his defense is already solid, and he can get by anyone with his first step. What he needs to learn is how not to get blocked by the second and third line of defenders.
SUPERSTAR is way premature, but the one thing that he brings that no one else on the Pistons can do is blow by guys...breaking downn the defense.
Just mho, but like I said the other night in the game thread, I'd already rather have Stuckey up top with the clock ticking down than CBill during regular season games. He can bust by a guy and dish, or go to the hole for some hoop and harm.
That aspect of his game is why I'm pumped about having him.
I agree that it's nice to have another player on the team (along with Max) that realizes that there is another way to score besides shooting from the perimeter.
hes phenomenal. he creates so much space just because hes fast. i like him a ton. him playing like crap isnt too surprising, we're asking alot of him by converting him into a point guard.
Been souring on his the past couple weeks. Like you said Glenn, that midrange game he was famed for coming out of college looks like junk. Gotta hit that shot to play in this league.
I'm still up in the air on him. He's shown flashes of being a solid player, but he's shown a lot of flaws too. He's definitely got to get more playing time before we can make any true assessments on him. Are these real flaws or is he just a rookie that hasn't played in a long time? Will his jumper come around, and will he be willing to put in the work to make it great?
Haven't seen him enough/Not comfortable making an early decision about him yet.
I knew I shouldn't have put that third, cop-out option into the poll.
Looks like I Tahoe'd it.
I should never assume that y'all would take a firm position.
"Sold" or "not sold" should have been it.
What do you expect from a ballboy with only 17 posts?
Glenn, do you think he's better than Flip?
