Kendall Marshall


Recommended Posts

I think he could be one of the most undervalued players in the draft. As unlikely as it might sound I really don't think picking him in the early lottery would be completely outlandish. With that said it would be near impossible to take him at #2 overall. But couldn't Bobcats trade back just a bit for this unique talent?

I have said Marshall will be a great PG in the NBA but to even take him in the top ten is insane. If anything, Portland wants to trade their two 1st and we then take Marshall with that no.11 pick.

If that happened..the 'cats would probably move DJ (let him walk, RFA), and probably use Kemba as a 6th man. I don't think Marshal would provide much spark off the bench..he might be better served starting and getting other involved.

Just like Michael Kidd-Gilchrist.

MKG is a better scorer defender and all around player then Marshall. Since 1 is a PG and the other is a SF. Why you compared the 2 in the 1st place is dumb on your part. Marshall needs a team of scorer's to make him a good pick for a team. While being a great passer he isn't a good defender, shooter, finisher, or scorer . Which is what we need at PG right now.

I'm a UNC fan and like Marshall, however I question his ability to defend NBA guards. No doubt a great distributor of the basketball, but our so-called "scorers" would put all his talents to waste. I would rather see him end up on the Miami Heat, but know he won't fall that far.

I saw one mock draft of him landing in PHX to eventually replace Nash.

Anybody else think Marshall becomes a Jason Kidd, Eric Snow type guard who runs the team on offense but guards the other team's SG? He clearly wont be quick enough to stay in front of NBA PGs, but if he puts on a little weight I think he could be passable off ball defender. It would certainly help his chances of sticking around in the NBA since he could play next to a Jason Terry type player in the backcourt

    • This is a wild statement it’s to late to save his season with six games left? That mountain of bad film as a rookie with trash coaching a weak azz line and dismal WRs. Guys that can’t catch on with other teams or guys traded to teams that are subpar at best. We put Bryce in a terrible situation to start his career does that matter to you or you feel he should’ve, as a rookie elevate this dumpster fire. If you’re giving him a fair assessment judge him off the last four games a good o-line decent WRs still not comparable to any other young QB WR room Hou (tank/nico..) Tua (Hill/Waddle) Caleb (Moore/Rome/Allen) let’s see what he can do with a decent structure around him for the next few weeks then let’s revisit how we’re going to grade or assess his performances.
    • As a bit of counterpoint, if he wanted to continue his professional career then handling it like a mature adult was the only option. Dude had been playing like absolute ass and needed to own it. It's great that he did but it's not like he didn't have a large amount of self interest in doing so. Not picking on Bryce specifically here, as this applies to any player or even anyone struggling early in their career. And he still has a long way to go, but signs are positive.
    • I agree he could still develop, but I think that could still be developed in practice. Just after a scary injury like that, I'm nervous to see him get reps in a live game situation when the best possible outcome is nothing more than worsening our draft selection. That said, I'm 100% not a doctor, so if he's clear to play, he wants to play, and there's no potential of aggravating this injury (which by all accounts it doesn't seem that is the case for this type of injury) then go for it, I guess.   But you hit the nail on the head. This draft class is really impressive. I can't remember the last time I was so impressed with a rookie that I'd actually prefer shutting him down. His game is so apparent that he doesn't need to prove anything at this point. Can't remember the last time that happened!
