He makes replacing CJ easy




I completely disagree. Hawkins doesnt have the handle, shot creation, or passing that CJ has. 100% of Hawks 3s have been assisted. Hawk has been an excellent off ball player but hasnt shown us anything on ball. CJ is able to play on or off ball because of his handle, creation and craftiness.

One of the best things about Hawkins is how well he should pair with Dyson. They can lift each other's weaknesses.

Kind of like the opposite of Dame/CJ.

He’s really that good as a rookie


Pels talk melted over the pick too.

Makes sense.

In Hawk we trust. Def working wonders for the Pels.

Seems to me...the question will be how good a midrange and "at the rim" game Hawk will develope...once they start running him off the 3-pt line. If he can get anywhere near as good as CJ "off" the 3-pt line...he should be a good one. I'm just not sure what he has...from inside the 3-pt line.
