Sexton is one of those players that looks to have a near elite NBA skill (scoring) and is passable in a few other categories..... but all anyone wants to talk about is what he isn't good at. He's like the black Kevin Love on here. With the 8th pick, the Cavs got a guy who looks like he can be a 20 PPG NBA scorer and do so efficiently. There's only 20 or so of those guys in the league.
Everyone also speaks about Collin like he is 28. Think about how much better he is from game 9 of last year to game 9 of this year. He has yet to turn 21 and he's gotten noticeably better with decision making, shot selection, defensive effort. Shot 40% from 3 on 3.6 3PA as a rookie.....42% on 5.0 3PA on his fast start this year. He is a LIGHTS OUT NBA shooter when many people weren't sure he'd be an average one.
I think he has some short comings that will likely remain, like his passing vision will probably always be below average......but you can easily envision him being one of the best 6 players on a title team. If we continue to draft above that cut line with our first round picks, this team is going to be very very fun (and good), especially with this coaching staff.
