pascal didn't have no problems stop capping on that front. It was FVV. Also you are missing out on the fact that Masai had to come down and sit down and talk to Barnes about his attitude and his willingness to tgive consistent effort.
The pressure doesn’t matter. After his rookie yr scottie is expected to be the raps future. Young or not. By the 3rd yr superstar players pretty much show us who they are. If he has another yr of no or minimal growth, that’ll pretty much be it. Not saying he won’t be able to still become an all star level guy or an amazing piece. But the likelihood of superstar to fully build around might be gone. Not saying that’s what I expect either. Just being realistic.
Scottie is going into his 3rd season. If he's going to take that leap as the man this is when you would expect it to start happening he's definitely not too young to take that jump. The question is about his maturity and if he is willing to bring that Tim Duncan like consistent effort to every game.
Winning roty was the best and worst 😢for Scottie he has a ton of potential but he has never been a #1 he has always been support he has to play outside himself to achieve what some of you expect!
Being a leader, has nothing to do with age is something inside of you some people having some people don't but age has nothing to do with it
I think Dennis Schroder can help Scottie Barnes a lot in terms of leadership and taking off some of the pressure from him
