I’d like to hear who you all think each player compares to.

I’d say:
Quickley - Jeff Teague
Herro - Seth Curry
EJ - Trey Lyles
KJ - Keith Bogans
And I’ll include Hagans - SGA. But with better passing and not as good of a shooter

What about you guys?

Quickley - shoots like lamb from 3 but plays pg like Teague ( crafty and smart )
Herro - easy one - Booker
EJ - again easy - Lyles but twice the passer
Johnson - MKG with 2x the offense and 2x less Defense.
Hagans - Fox with a slightly better J at this point in his career ( his J is like fox at UK and not Fox in HS if that makes sense)

I like the Johnson/Bogans comparison. Johnson needs to work to be as good an outside shooter as Bogans was though. They are pretty comparable as freshmen.

Quickley - Lamb with PG skills
Herro - Booker
Montgomery - Poor man Chris Bosh
Hagans - Flashier Brandon Knight

Remember swole Bogans his freshmam yr vs his svelte body Jr yr.
If KJ can shoot like bogans, we are in for a treat.

I wonder if some of you even watch basketball.

1. EJ as a poor man Bosh...and then another as Trey Lyles...WTH have you seen to make these absurd comparisons?
2. Hagans isn't anything like Brandon...he's a clone of Collin Sexton as a big PG with nutty athleticism. That is nothing like Brandon Knight
