Didn't like the kid when his name started to come up more often last year. I also think it's a little disrespectful to Dirk as a comparison. He's arguably the best euro player to ever play in the NBA, so it's usually a cop out comp for draft "experts" - my point is, I didn't mind when Porzingis was compared to Dirk, since I see the talent and similarities. But this kid is no where close to how good Dirk was in those international games as a teen.
