| I doubt anyone here is going to comprehend this, as 85%+ of the posters are just in complain only mode and the other 14.99% are lost in some fantasy trade scenario computations, but here goes anyway.
I think Hardy could have a major career break through playing on a team with Luka. Let me break down why.
Steph Curry is arguably the best shooter in NBA history. Actually it's not really arguable. He is. Steph figured out a way to train his shot beyond anything any shooter has even done. In my opinion, I do not believe there is anyway that Klay Thompson becomes the shooter he is without modeling his game after Steph. It is obvious that Steph influenced Klay and whatever training Steph was doing, Klay adopted it. Same with Jordan Poole. Poole never becomes the shooter he was last season without modeling Steph.
Now Luka has a different game than Steph. It's not based on pure shooting and movement without the ball. Luka is all about controlling the pace, using dribbling and footwork to create separation and then making shots in traffic or dishing dimes as the defense collapses. He is the best in the world currently at this type of game play. Brunson modeled his game after Luka. No surprise, Luka was right in front of his face, so why not? People said Brunson was redundant because he has the same style as Luka. Yeah, he does, because he modeled his game after Luka.
Hardy is a gym rat. He wants to get better. Hardy will probably study Luka. And it just so happens that Hardy's current weaknesses are Luka's strengths. Hardy lacks change of pace, decision making with the ball and getting separation with patience and control. If Hardy models after Luka, these things will become strengths. Hardy already has the pure shooting stroke and ability to move without the ball. If he adds Luka style magic to his game the way Brunson did, in 2-3 years he will be an all-star. His ceiling is high.
Very high. |
