I’m glad you mentioned Ausar and his off dribble pull up shots. He jumps so high on those mid ranges, and he seems to kinda float in the air just a split second longer than everyone else. I’m very confident of his mid range game because that’s a legit weapon not many can guard. He just has to learn to use it more, which is hard to do on a team full on non shooters lol.
@michaelahurt

Yeah his short mid-range game is actually already really good and he has good touch on those but I'm not sure how well that translates further out. His overall touch is still not very good. I think he's kind of the exception to the rule about non-shooting wings because he can function so well as lob threat from the dunker spot and as a cutter -- which basically means if you hide your big on him that big can't leave him which is the same effect as if he was actually a good shooter -- and if you have a wing on him he'll beat them on the glass. (At least in a functional NBA offense, as opposed to what Detroit does.) And I think he can develop as a hub and roller because of that short mid-range game, his finishing and passing ability.

You are most certainly right with the last part you wrote. The mid range isn't really a high impact regular season weapon and especially surrounded by a bunch of other non-shooters. With the way the Pistons are built and with their GM not as aggressive in being able to change things up, I think Asuar will probably flourish with his skillset in another team who will trade for him. Probably one that is a playoff threat with shooting talents. Could sorta play out like Aaron Gordon's situation being moved from the Magic to the Nuggets.

@@wutangboss Turnovers are a noisy stat for playmakers especially in the modern era. Lebron has a career TOV/game of 3.5 with 3.6 in his last six seasons. But you still give him the ball because he's got the handles and he's still got the court vision to hook up a teammate anywhere on the floor. Jokic in his last 3 seasons has 3.5 TOV/game but if you see the passes he makes on the regularity along with the high difficulty of it, the turnovers that are a byproduct are nebulous. But as you wrote if Brown can turn to a plus defender and be more decisive with his decision making on offense, he'll be fine. Plus he doesn't have be hidden in matchups either in comparison to smaller point guard types.

Still, that connective passing you mentioned is at a premium with those guys, especially Scottie and Pascal.

I second this. Blake Griffin was an example of mine from the last decade who took 8 years to have a respectable 3-ball jumper. Isaac Okoro was one of the prospects who was physical and had great defensive tools but he would certainly see more time if he had a working jumper. There is a reason why he comes off the bench with limited minutes nowadays. Also a big reason why some mid-late drat talents who were ignored because they were junior/senior standouts in some backwater school/division flourished in their roles coming in as rookies. Because they have complete games (for the most part) and they just need NBA reps to catch up.

@@conehed1138 So out of curiosity I wanted to compare Ausar to Scoot and found that the G-League has scrubbed 15 games off Scoot's career (and so has BB-Ref) and it makes his G-League career look much better than it was. Thankfully RealGM stiill has the data. Ausar at OTE: .486/.298/.667 Scoot at GLI: .429/.275/.764 Scoot's FT at least might give you a ray of hope, but learning to shoot at the same time as learning how to play in the best league in the world is a huge ask. This is why I was so surprised at how so many Ringer hoops writers (and fans) were so high on Scoot. He has the worst eFG of any player in the draft for over a decade (at least), and he went 3rd!

I think the Thompson twins would greatly benefit from a shooting coach(es) that tells them to keep their right shoulder down at all costs all the way through the shooting motion. They have so much muscle, so guaranteeing that they stay engaged is the trick. That engagement question is the reason why Ausar is better off the dribble than in catch-and-shoot. Anthony Black has a different engagement area he needs to work on: his hips. This is the root cause of his "reclining" behavior on his 3pt shot, a lack of lower core and hip engagement on the moment of launch. I think this is fixable as well, and he could, like Kyle Anderson, turn into a passable catch-and-shoot player with some work.

AB was definitely a bewildering pick on draft night when we already have Markelle Fultz as our point guard, who has similar shooting deficiencies. But not with Fultz being down again, the pick makes more long term sense. AB has been a surprisingly willing and decent set shooter from 3. The way he navigates the floor on defense is truly impressive. But to be a long term fixture he will need to expand the offensive game. It certainly won't be for lack of effort. He's consistently seen after games getting up extra shots.

Great video. I used to be one of those guys who say take the shooter, but there is a conundrum. In the playoffs those guys can’t do anything. So I wanted the Magic to take some shooting and while I didn’t think Black was a bad player, I definitely did not want him in Orlando. Of course they took him. I have seen him live now and watched the games. You can’t teach how good he is defensively. You described him perfectly. He lets his feet guide him, he fights through screens, he has amazing defensive positioning awareness, and he is just flat out huge. Fultz has been out pretty much the whole season and he has started and we have a top 5 defense. He and Suggs(man…he is a top 4 or 5 best defensive guard in the league) hound opposing backcourts. And with Suggs developing a shot(thank you basketball gods), if Fultz were to move on, I’m totally on board with a Suggs/Black back court. Ausar(I have seen Detroit live twice in two different states) is really good and honestly Detroit should build around him. After watching Cade his rookie season, I have felt that he isn’t extremely skilled enough to overcome his lack of athleticism and the fact he somehow lost 2” from college. Move him off ball and he can excel in that role. Ausar is explosive and sees the court well. Always get the elite defensive player. You can figure out ways to make them work on offense. The Zero on defense??? He better be Steph Curry or Luka Doncic.

My initial thought was this guy is not going to be good in the NBA if he continues to train like this. He is playing exactly how I thought he would. Until he starts training like an NBA player, he will continue to play like a kid. Ik he’s young but his coaches should be better or he will be a wasted talent.
