It's funny that Collin has been getting talked about in every other thread than his own. I guess that means he's polarizing and people don't know what to make of him. Everyone talking trash should know you're (most likely) wrong. Maybe you're spoiled because of Kyrie, but he wasn't everything right away, either.
The kid has (insert superlative) drive and that 'Mamba Mentality', we're lucky to have drafted him. There's so many people in this league who need to be baby sit - Colin is not one of those people. His increased shooting percentage, especially from deep, in his first year should alone be note of that. The kid has confidence in himself and his work ethic and knows he'll get to where he wants to be with experience (we're talking about someone who can't legally drink until Jan 4th 2020).
He pulled together some great games for us and probably cost us a couple draft pick percentages in the process last year, but as opposed to Kyrie and Dion I'm so much more excited for Collin and Darius. I'll be really upset if they don't gel because they are the perfect mix of fast and slow. It feels as if we split Andre Miller into his two separate parts (Edit: plus long range shooting) and made two players.
Knowing we'll be in the mix for another top-pick doesn't deter me at all from wanting to watching this team. Just please get rid of Nance and Tristan and Clarkson.
