Through three preseason games, Bates is averaging 12.6 points per game while shooting 52% from the field and 45% from the 3-point line. Bates helped the Cavs win the NBA Summer League championship. Bates has plenty of potential as a scorer. Cavs got a big steal selecting him, may not be NBA-ready just yet but has a ton of potential. But going that far for him becoming the 2nd option for CAVS is a bit far 😂😂😂

@hibredtv 8 месяцев назад

Its mainly because of size, he is like 6"11 that weighs 175. Thats a small frame. He still young as hell. So he should start getting bigger in the next few years. Once he gain bout 30 pounds he gonna be a problem. KD 2.0 potentially.

I’m a Cavs fan and I love Emoni game but he not taking DG spot at the 1 DG is a True PG with elite level playmaking you can see it on tape and in the numbers. Emoni has elite scoring potential and at best he’ll be a solid passer but not enough to run the 1. Best case scenario he can take Donovan spot if he do end up leaving or fill out and be the 3 if Donovan stays.

Keeping them all becomes extremely expensive if Bates turns into what we think he can that’s like paying 3 all stars you see how hard it is to build role players and a bench paying 3 all stars especially with people being paid more than ever.

@kevinpayne5511 7 месяцев назад

Two 6'1" guards ain't gon get it done they a defensive liability, so realistically you gotta pick one or get one to come off the bench Think Lillard and Cj tried for years. You don't need two scoring guards one gotta play some defense. Kobe and Mj 6'6" shooting guards.

@IknowMoreThanYou 8 месяцев назад

Hope he does well Gil has a terrible eye for talent that actually contributes to winning so I hope him being high on Emoni doesn't jinx him. If he buys in heavily to becoming a top tier defender he can go to all star level then potential hall of fame.

@hibredtv 8 месяцев назад

Mobley is a great defender. Potential DOPY but he has to get more consistent with his jumper. But he got more than enough time to grow. But the first 5 years of nba players careers typically determines their role on the team. So we will see.

Shouts to underdog though, I ended up getting my money back the same day. I forfeited the bonus cause certain features isn't available in certain states in the US. (Yet) And drafting players isn't my thing, maybe once they've gotten a sports book I'll try back. I still should be good for that bonus cause I didn't use it. 🤷🏿‍♂️😁😁✌🏿

@CutToTheMarrow 8 месяцев назад

I dont see it, he is a pure scorer who is streaky at best when shooting from the games i have seen. If all you can do is score, you are destined to be a role player, six man. He would have to develop court vision and become an above average defender to be the star of the Cavs.

@richwilliams1943 8 месяцев назад

@jonathanbradley3633 8 месяцев назад

With nba spacing he has been taking & making better shots. I don’t expect him to be as streaky in the league. He definitely needs toimprove defensively to get that starting 3 spot. I don’t see him being the star, but eventually the 3rd option that they were waiting for Evan Mobley to be is in play for sure

@jonathanbradley3633 8 месяцев назад

@@CutToTheMarrow yeah if he doesn’t improve defensively that will probably be his ceiling. Defense is going to be the key for him. If he becomes average to above average defender that’s exactly what they need at the 3 spot. They need floor spacing & a big wing who can defend with those 2 small guards. He doesn’t need to be an elite defender either the 2 rim protectors on the floor, just be able to hold his own against the bigger scorers Mitchell & garland can’t guard. It’s not guaranteed but he has a path to getting real minutes here on a team trying to win now & build for the future. I think he is in a great situation.

@evanroder2199 8 месяцев назад

Love the Bates hype but he's not threatening DG or Spida's spot on the team. If anything, Strus and Okoro should be concerned, because he'd be slotting in at SF, and getting minutes at SG as needed. Realistically though, he won't start this year for the Cavs anyway. But if Strus isn't shooting lights out this year, I could see Bates start to steal some minutes later in the season.

Must have not watched Emoni when he was at Eastern Michigan. He was a poor defender, who was a volume shooter on poor efficiency. He was drafted basically on potential. Perhaps his game adapts better in the pros better than college. It's rare, but it can happen. Wish him the best though: focus on improving, getting a bit stronger, and being an integral part of Cleveland's success.
