Again, when it comes to Wall, we're talking, we has to talk about potential. There is not much else to go on so far. And yes, i would probably agree with nowherman on this, Wall's ceiling is higher than Rose's was (now it is obvious with Rose's injury). He could potentially be just as lethal of a scorer, but a better passer, and maybe a better defender as well.
That's not at all what I meant by "narrow line." I meant that it's difficult to try and parse out pure athleticism versus the ability to smartly use that athleticism.

I never said Wall was better than Rose at any point. I said I thought he might be more athletic.
