KAHHHNNN!! David Kahn is the Matt Millen of the NBA. He tried to justify the back to back guard picks by saying they were stashing Rubio for a couple years, while he secretly begged him to come over to the NBA to minimize the clusterfrick that was passing over Curry and the flameout that was Johnny Flynn

Im not sure what Harrison Barnes yall watched in college, but he could definitely stroke it. His question marks coming out was his ball handling and creating his own shot.

the problem was that he wasn't a slasher and relied too much on his jumper, which isn't elite

the question wasn't his athleticism...it was more if he had the desire to be a driver...or if he'd just try to settle for long Js (without being a great outside shooteR)

yeah that sounds about right. but he did tend to lean on Marshall instead of creating own shite, which led some to believe if he would be able to create in the NBA

Yep. He shot the ball a good bit, but, like SFP said, he wasn't an elite shooter. He's seemed to get more of that slashing mentality at Golden State since he is playing with the best shooter in the league and another top five man from deep.

He settled for contested jumpers way too much at UNC.

This, a lot of people like to bash him but he dropped 40 while in college with multiple game winners. Once he stop acting like a robot he will be a allstar
