Those dunks are Iverson-esque...and he's already got a smoother J than AI ever did

Not quite Iversonesque in terms of speed...looks more like Bibby but with better hops. He distributes well and is so smooth and calm with the ball in his hands. This kid has NBA talent. No wonder BBA has a mancrush on him...I think I do too.

This guy is no where near the type of player Iverson was and that is good, Iverson wouldn't work in this era of basketball.

I was only comparing him to AI b/c you don't see many 6'0-ers rising up to dunk in traffic or finishing off alley oops, that's all. I didn't see any other part of that video that made me think he was a similar type of player to AI - don't let my earlier comment derail this thread.

I can't think of a player he reminds me of. I've never seen this combination of quickness, handles, lateral movement and explosiveness from a 16 year old point guard. His body control is at an elite level already. He's not done growing. He has 2 more years of high school. I expect he'll end up around 6'2 before he enters College.

How is this related to JF? i'm thinking this kid will play for no schnacks at some point... They shout out No Shnacks at the end of the video, so you might be right. Haha

His pull up jumper off the dribble to either direction is seriously at an elite level. He creates his shot off the dribble with such speed, timing, and vertical that there isnt a hand in his face to defend it, just shooting right over kids. Very impressive game.

We get this guy by making it to the FINAL Four this year. That's what will put Tony Bland in the West Coast Drivers Seat.

Haha didn't notice it. while i couldn't really care less, and like you've said there's no reason you should say "who" you are, my shot in the dark is that you are part of the no shnacks staff. explains the woody for jamaal, and the more recent crush on stephens. also could explain the negativity towards winston, since if i recall he played like 10 minutes total for the team and it wasn't spectacular. you also bring in highlight vids that seem to be produced by someone with ties to that team. like i said, don't care at all. some have wondered aloud, this is just my guess

If he can get up to 6' 3", he may be the next Russell Westbrook.

Jordan's recruitment is basically just starting. There has been schools like SDSU, UNLV, AZ, USC and UCLA that have been on him for awhile, but soon the east coast blue bloods will attack even harder. His game is nuts though. Excited to see how him and Parker Jackson-Cartwright fill out over the next 2 years.

It will be interesting to see how Jordan's recruitment plays out especially after PJC makes his decision which should be sometimes soon, it has been well documented that he doesn't like the recruiting process, UA is the leader there though UCLA has a shot. If UCLA misses out on PCJ, UCLA will be really tough to beat for McLaughlin. I think McLaughlin will stay west. In 2014 other elite cali guys I get the feeling Stanley will end up at UK and Pope will probably not stay west, Daniel obviously ends up where Isaac goes.
