Class of 2022 SG/SF Justin Taylor (VA / IMG) COMMITTED/SIGNED TO SYRACUSE

[SU in Hershey]

They are always hooping in the shire. Sam still dominates the paint.

Not to be too geeky, but I think Pippin is the new man in the middle since he drank the Ent-draught
(Or did Merry one-up him? I don’t recall...)

 

[721Comstock]

I was going to make the Cooney comparison, for the [two handed dunking] reasons you mention -- but figured that would be loaded, because there's a portion of the fanbase that fervently believes he was slow and unathletic.

Cooney dunked more times in one half @ BC, than Andy Rautins and Buddy have for the totality of both of their careers in Orange to date.

I still kinda giggle about how I thought they kept showing the replay of his steal and slam, when in fact it was him doing the same thing 3 different times over the span of like 5 minutes.

 

[Orangezoo]

Yeah, take clips from HS / AAU with a slight grain of salt, but he looks to be more than just a shooter.

And he's at least slightly above average athletically -- more explosive than say a Buddy or Andy [not criticizing those guys].

Yeah sometimes aggressiveness on the drive can be misconstrued as athleticism especially for a kid with his size. That said, just the aggressive tendencies is a major positive. It can only help his game and getting good looks if he is a willing driver and can finish.

 

[orangepassion]

Yeah, he's a lot more like Cooney in terms of his hops and driving skills.

As has been posted prior, he's like Buddy, but with the sports package upgrades.

Does he like his Potatoes shaky?

Come on, Doc, you were in a band in high school. You shouldn’t have had to resort to reading fantasy books!

I will blindly give likes to any mention of shaky potatoes for the next decade

Cooney had hops!

If we're using that as a point of reference, we already have Lands, a 5* in some circles.

If Taylor likes to play with other guys that can dribble, pass and shoot, it should help us.
