Do you guys think that Jordan Hamilton could kinda be like Kevin Durrant? they are both a SF and they both have really good range, I have never seen him play but some people said he is like KD but idk. what do you guys think?

[the27guyParticipant]

I don’t think so. Durant is an epic scorer. From what I’ve seen of Hamilton he’s not as good as Durant was in college in any aspect of the game.

 

Oh, and I never answered your question a little while ago about Biyombo (yes I said the bad word… neg me now if you wish). I don’t think Biyombo will be around when they draft at 12. I think he’ll go somwhere between 5 and 10. In a draft like this where there aren’t any players that can do anything great, there’s at least a chance that Biombo could be a great defender, so I think he’s gone by 10, but I could be wrong.

Hamilton can be a really good scorer in the NBA but not unstoppable.  Durant is unstoppable and his length and athletism gives him versatility that Hamilton doenst have.

this is a stupid thread. Hamilton might be ok but never an all star or anything.

Could be like Paul Peirce at best imo. Bout the same type of player at the same stage except Jordan has the better jumper

What does like Paul Pierce at best mean? PP is a HOFer….

Jordan Hamilton very similar to Danny Grenger!

I like Hamilton’s game and he seems like a player who will improve a lot with NBA seasoning.  He does have to be on the right team and under the right coach.  He is a good rebounder which is why I think he will be successful in the league.  Hamilton may have a better jumpshot than Pierce at the same stage and probably more athletic, but Pierce is one of the craftiest scorers ever so I cant see the comparison yet.

I’ve said Pierce all along, but I’m seeing that Granger comparison as a little more accurate.

I see Hamilton’s career probably being somewhere in between a Rasual Butler and Danny Granger. I say that because at a minimum, he’ll be able to come into the league at 6’7, play that wing position, and space the floor, while knocking down shots from 3 pt range, along with minimal one dribble pull ups with ease. If he works hard on his off the bounce game, and the nba caliber of athlete doesn’t overwhelm him, he should be a guy who can learn to operate in the mid-range, with his nice soft touch in the lane with those floaters and push shots. He can even back down smaller wing players if you try to put em on him, similar to Granger, but I think Granger has more size and has the post up background playing mainly inside in college. Don’t think he can play the 2 though, not enough foot speed to guard those guys. Should have a long pro career though, just has to buy in to the team concept and play hard defensively and not get down on himself too easily when the going gets tough, as this league can be very unforgiving.

I see alot of Stephen Jackson in Jordan Hamilton’s game and demeanor. Both are good scorers who have nice shots, smooth off the dribble games, nice physical ability, and can rebound. Hamilton can’t play PG in spurts like Jackson has done as he’s not quite the ball handler or passer, but he’ll have a niche in the NBA scoring the ball as a swingman.

[AKOOParticipant]

More like Dorrel Wright who once played with Miami but had a breakout year for Golden State last year. I can’t see him being a all-star within his first 5 years in the league.
