We have to hope he isn't mentally unstable like Jaime.

He compares his own game to KD. Definitely not the range KD had at Texas, but could be more of a defensive threat.


I'm as excited about Naz as the next guy, but he plays nothing like KD on the court.

We all think we shoot like Steph Curry on the playground.

Sorry. But I just don't see that comparison at all. Lloreda was a dominant rebounder who used effort and position to operate in the paint. However, his effectivness was limted to about 7-10 feet from the basket. His scoring was largely a byproduct of effort and cleaning up on the glass.

Reid is a MUCH more skilled player than Lloreda. Reid can handle the ball, knock down shots from the perimeter and pass. If I had to compare him to a recent LSU player, I'd say he's comparable to a more skilled JOBIII. Ried isn't necessarily an above the rim player, but he can do some uncanny things for a kid his size.

The key for Wade will be convincing Reid to play like a more like a SF (in a big man's body) vs. a PG. There's no doubt Reid has perimeter ability. However, I think he forgets sometimes (particularly on offense) that he is 6'9 240. While he can knock down 3's here and there and handle the ball up top, he can be a dominant player from 15 ft and in.

Darius Days, Josh LeBlanc, and Kaden Archie won't stay uncommitted for long. They should all be on board before the early signing period. All three are top 100 players. As far as surprises go, the only one I can think of that we have an actual shot at is 5 star PF Emmitt Williams. Oregon definently leads right now, but I'd say we're sitting second. We should be getting an OV from him soon.

To some extent. But if we're making an NBA comparison, I'd say Reid compares to the guy in your profile pic (Obviously not nearly as good at this point in his life. But he has the tools to get there).

Reid is a big body who is very comfortable with the ball in his hands away from the basket.

This what I have been saying for a while. The way he uses his body under the rim get shots off and his comfort handling and shooting from the perimeter screams Boogie to me. Obviously he is a little shorter (6'10 vs 6'11) and a little lighter (240 vs 270) than Boogie but he has the same effect on the HS level as Boogie did and will likely do the same in college. He also seems to have more quickness than Boogie from the tapes that i've watched him. He will still be bigger than most college 4s and can slide over to the 5 too if necessary.
