Just curious, but how does Hood compare to Harden, PG, and Thompson in their second years as a pro?

When I saw him shooting in warm ups at the jazz scrimmage after we drafted him I was certain he would be deadly from outside. Beautiful shot.

The fact that he can put it on the floor, hit the midrange shot, and pass is all just icing on the cake.

I think we all saw it and hoped, but then we remembered C.J. Miles and that he had a beautiful shot that made us think he would be deadly from outside.

I know it's not a one to one comparison, but just the memory of Miles makes me hold back a bit.

I'm beyond that now for the most part. I think he's proven he can do some nice things fairly consistently.

Yes, good point. Cj miles was fantastic on paper. Great looking shot, good size, athletic... yet horrible

His fg/3 point % are a little low but he's also had some abysmal stretches. If he continues on his torrid pace for another couple weeks, these will go up some and be really, really impressive.

How does his age compare to these guy's ages in their second years?
 
Here is an interesting question. At this point, who says no in a jabari/rodney swap?

I would rather have hood.

Me too. Hood is a better natural shooter, passer (and for this, team player imo), and has more upside defensively.

Same age as klay. One year younger than pg and harden. Same years experience as those two though.

Yet horrible? That is kind of overboard. He was pretty decent in Utah.

Eh, I always liked cj more than almost everyone. Seemed like all jazz fans hated him. Still to this day if you bring him up, jazz fans will talk about how sucky he was.

I guess he was hated so much because he didn't suck?

Hood has already done more then CJ ever did.

Not true. Hood is 23. The two guys I mentioned were 21.

I thought PG was drafted as a senior?
 
Having said that, Indy is the 8th seed in the East and nothing special. Would you trade Burke, Burks, Hood, Lyles, the OKC 1st AND fairly protected 1st of our own for Paul George? Would they do it?

Has been an absolute monster.

17.9 ppg
4 rpg
2.4 apg
3.8 FTA per game @ 91%
6.3 3pa per game @ 47%

Pretty decent numbers... Still not as good as marvin williams though
 
Anti cake-bakers: name one FA wing that could have been had last offseason that is playing better than Hood right now.



And ppl wanted him to come off the bench. Lolz.
