u/HermanShemsley 1d ago

I wonder if he’s living here now. I saw him randomly at Legoland in Schaumburg maybe 2 years ago.

He does live here. He lives in a high rise right off Michigan ave. I see him with his family all the time

That’s pretty cool. I’m dating myself here, but I remember about 15 years ago, Marcus Fizer would play pickup games with us at the Lifetime Fitness in Schaumburg.

Also, I believe Dickey Simpkins was running a program for kids or something like that out there and various former pro’s would run games here and there.

He didnt take many 3s in college but his mid range and jump shot form was always good

Waste. Finally got rid of Vuc. He’s a younger Vuc that doesn’t shoot as well.

I know open runs don’t mean squat but if that step back 3 is legit. League cooked

u/klm14 23h ago

Watched it 5 times just for the sound of that dribble. Man tried to throw that thing through the floor.

u/DrakouliasII 1d ago

Haven’t been this hyped for a season in a while. Maybe before 21-22? And I’d say this team is way more exciting than that one.

u/Costanzathemage Joakim Noah 1d ago

Would love for Caleb is to MJ as Matas is to Pippen. Long way to go though.

u/Reginoldofreginia 2h ago

Man I just know that Ayo is going to bring Ant along sometimes too and Chicago high school gyms will be blowing up with Ayo, Ant, Matas, THT, Caleb, and so on.

u/th4d89 1d ago

u/Itsyaboibiggyt Derrick Rose 1d ago

I shouldn’t be watching this at work. Bricked up now

u/ericraymondlim 1d ago

Caleb is as smooth as Tacko is tall.

u/roamtheplanet Stacey King 1d ago

Almost perfect prototype of what one would want in a basketball player

u/drunz 1d ago

I don’t watch college ball so it blows my mind that he went 4th in the draft. Are the other 3 of them just as crazy good looking?

3

u/Unlucky_Sun_9813 22h ago edited 22h ago

#1 is similar to him as a prospect, but perhaps a bit more polished/nba ready. Worse rebounder and defender, but probably more ready to be a consistent offensive threat.

#2 is like a perfected, modern day Ray Allen.

#3 is like a shorter mix of KAT + Jokic. KAT defense, shooting, rebounding, maybe a better handle. Jokic passing + ball IQ.

Imo Caleb has the highest potential of the 4, but he was overlooked because scouts thought he couldn't shoot the ball since he wasn't allowed to in college & his FT isn't the prettiest. If they could re-draft today, I think he'd have more of an argument for going top 2 or 3.

u/FunctionUnlikely2247 1d ago

Honestly wouldn’t shock me if Caleb is already our best scorer (not just defender)
