Dare I compare Dillingham to ....
- Thread starter Bluedog1
- Start date
Handles of Hunter McClintock, dawg mentality of Ramel Bradley, and pull up floater of Tyler Ulis.
I started saying this early. His ability was pretty obvious watching OTE. He may have looked more aggressively to score and forced things at times but I suspect that is what his coach wanted.
The difference is Dillingham is way quicker and his body control at the rim is light years ahead of Briscoe. Not to mention he has way more confidence in his perimeter shooting.
I can get behind an Iverson light comparison.
Well to be fair his last season was him and Crawford. They basically willed us to the tournament and damn near won a game.
I think that’s the problem with AAU, they play more erratic to show off. This has shown how structured he can actually play though. He has shown a very unselfish nature, but an ability to score when needed.
Yeah but in a different way. Briscoe used his strength, where as Dilly uses his speed and handle.
I think Dilly should get his hair cut like Blade, he already moves as fast as a Superhero.Clearly Dilly and Shep are spending a lot of time in the gym together, they are playing more and more like the same person every game. It's a fun thing to watch. Imagine our opponents if/when we get Bradshaw back and see those three coming off the bench. It's like
Not a perfect comp but I've said for a minute he reminds me of a slightly smaller version of Monk with better handles.
I see a old timer in his game, one of the most underrated players imo. Nate "Tiny" Archibald dude was killer with the ball and good shooter, led NBA in scoring and dimes a time or two, only 5' 11" maybe 6 foot.
Ramel Bradley was a nice player, but he isn’t in the same universe as Dillingham on the talent scale.
He reminds me of a smaller Jamal Crawford, but that might be underselling him long term.
They definitely play with a similar flair, not as athletic or tall. Better handles. Both score in ridiculous ways and can go absolutely nuclear in no time.
Interesting if you look on Rob's official UK page....favorite UK player, Mr. Monk.
There are zero similarities. Briscoe had a terrible shot and limited ball skills. Dillingham is crazy fast and smooth with a ridiculous handle.
James Blackman was one of my all time favs. He didnt show his potential until his Senior year really, and maybe Hall contained him too much But man that kid could play! hes a coach now up in his hometown I think. Glad to hear he is doing well.
