    I don’t think people realize how technical Harden’s game is. Combine that with his elite anticipation skills and it’s no wonder why he’s a special player.

    Primo needs to continue honing the technical aspects of the game. If he does, then maybe he can be at least 25% the player Harden is.
    Primo has no burst.

    I think the starter will depend on the defensive abilities of the opposing guards.
    Jones will start against the better defenders.
    Primo will start against the worst defenders.
    25 minutes each.

    I don’t think he’s working on “burst” in that video. From the caption, it seems like he’s working on rapid deceleration a La Harden. Here’s an interesting article on Harden’s ability to decelerate quickly: https://rocketswire.usatoday.com/202...ation-ability/

    No , man. I’m saying that you’re too fixated on a player having burst and athleticism when there are plenty of stars that don’t rely on it.

    Harden has more burst and athleticisn going to the basket and also shoots the ball better than Primo.

    While Primo is still working on his overall game.

    Harden breaks down his man enough to take it strong to the basket. That's why he can drop 30 points on you.

    Primo struggles in everything.

    I'm beginning to see Primo as Slo Mo 2.0, or perhaps DDR 2.0--hopefully with a better perimeter shot. There are SG who depend on a burst of speed to score, but that presupposes that their "go to" shot is off a drive, or a drive and pull-up. Tony Parker was that kinda shooter as a guard. But he had no 3pt. shot. Didn't need it to score. If Primo is going to be that type of scorer, then building strength to absorb the bumps and shoves while driving down low is a good development. Malaki looks to be a scorer who uses guile and angles to get down into his preferred shooting territory rather than using sheer speed to get into scoring position. DDR 2?

    On the other hand, Primo has shown flashes of good 3 pt. range, and am I wrong, or was he more likely to launch it at the beginning of the season. Maybe he lost some confidence when his average wasn't that impressive or maybe the coaches asked him to dial back his aggressiveness on that shot. I thought he was supposed to be a 3&D when we drafted him. But We'd all like to see him competent at all three tiers of shots if he is going to be one of our go-to scorers at whatever position.

    It's really impossible to equate one player's style with another player. They can remind you of someone that is similar, but each player has his own quirks and style developed over time in how to get free for a shot.

    Yeah, Primo is starting I imagine. He was already starting to end the year. Who else starts might be more of the mystery.
