Great game by him tonight fuck anyone who shits on this dude. He's a legit good player.
I can't wait til he gets better because it makes no sense than a guard that can drop 20 points a night get ignore by basketball fans and the media....Especially,when he has a better three-point percentage than Luka and Trae,so far in their career.
Spike been calling for a legit full rebuild for at least a decade. And it's not like he's wrong. The Knicks ain't attracting a big time free agent. Dolan needs to let that pipe dream go and except facts. A full rebuild is the only way to go.
I'm starting to think it just that the media is biased against anything coming out of Cleveland. For anyone who actually watches the games, you know that Sexton is the best thing they got going right now.
It stems from this article the local newspaper reported last season about veterans on the team saying he can't play...Tristan,Love and probably Brandon McKnight(the rumored players)
Tristan mostly backed off but had a few issues with Collin this season but the main culprit is Love...imo
They talked about it on the Jump last season,a few days after the article was posted.
The faster this team gets rid of Mr. Talc the better because he's toxic..
With, the fans they don't view him as a boxoffice player like a Morant,Zion,Trae,Luka and all these other players. Hell,he's not the flashiest player on the team. The fans gravitate towards Garland and Porter because they do alot of highlight plays and Sexton doesn't.
To,me I would have thought the fans would embrace Sexton because he plays a chip on his shoulder and plays extremely hard on every play. Sure,he messes up but he learns from his mistakes and tries to get better.
I've never seen a player get so scrutinized in his second year,especially when he's on his fourth coach in his very short career...Not,even Kyrie went through this with the fans.
Lastly,alot of fans wanted Shai Gilgeous-Alexander but he told the organization not to come to his workout before the draft...Still,til this day they still bitching about the pick.
What's funny,Sexton is playing better than SGA...imo..but you can't tell morons anything..
I do find it fucked up that a player that can drop 20 pts a night cant get any love in the national media. He had better numbers than most of the players in his draft and the rookies this year but gets criticized by basketball fans. The only two players that scored more points than Sexton are Trae and Luka. He has a better three-point percentage than those two.
