Fox TYPE of player, not Fox himself.

He is saying that Kira can learn how to play more controlled with his speed, in the style of which Fox plays, not that he will ever be as good as Fox or does everything Fox does.

The comparison is only in learning to play controlled with speed.

“Fox learned to control that speed with playing time,”

- this is false. Fox played with speed and made layups even at KY which made him a top pick. He didn’t learn this after he got drafted. It was a skill he already before he got the pros, a skill kira never has had.

This part is a fair argument. Fox did use his speed well in college, but he did have an adjustment period in the NBA in learning to play with his speed at that level.

You must not remember to much of Fox’s early years in Sacramento, he played a little out of control which is why he was always in trade rumors until recently.

Saying 2 players have a similar play style doesn't mean that they have the same skill level, nor does that mean that's what the person that said it means.

Don't be stupid here.

He had an adjustment in getting better at what he does and how that can benefit his team. Agree to that. But he didn’t have to learn a whole new skill of finishing at the rim with his speed which he was already doing at college on a regular basis.

In what world do you think Kira plays like Fox on his style? The guy doesn’t even attack the rim most the time. Fox has always attacked the rim in college and rookie year. Yeah its silly to sit here and compare Fox and Kira playing styles.

Dont be an idiot here as well.

Yes he always had good finishing. Kira does not have that. But he did struggle with control, and that's where Kira is as well. But Kira needs to learn control and finishing.

He can learn to be the same style of player as Fox. He will never be at the same skill level as Fox. I don't anyone was suggesting such a delusion.

You did by saying he can learn to play like Fox. You dont just LEARN to play like great players. Especially when those players have been elite at that at a young age.

Kira will be out the rotation soon and traded by deadline Then he will be out the league come summer. I didn't ever think we'd draft a worse player than Austin Rivers but here we are now. At least one played with heart, this one is to indecisive with the ball and you can't be that as a point guard in this league.

“Ok I get it, you’re just a fricking moron”

- I missed this so you’re saying I’m not a moron because my argument maybe moron like but you’re not comparing me to a moron by saying that. Yup got it according to your logic.

This is what people do when they can’t explain moronic comparisons and have to backtrack.

Its ok Griffin is excused because according to some people here he could been De’aaron Fox like but he just didn’t get the playing time. Not that I’m comparing him to Fox though smh.

You are so butthurt it’s sad. Get over the fact that it was an attempt to compare him in what he should try to be not what he is

Lol I love how you want to insert yourself in conversations. I bet you love gossiping with your wife as well. Soggy literally said I’m not comparing him to Fox when he clearly was. When your comparing playing styles of one player to another- you’re literally comparing the player to another player.

But im sure you know better since you love to come in and argue shite you dont frick about.

No no please respond. Its the whole premise of the thread right? Just like you said.

Imagine arguing with someone and some ahole comes in saying stop being so butthurt with no other interest in the argument. Then acts like a pussy when I call him out on it. You’re damn right I’m getting the last word.
