By Sharp Go To PostListen these people were pretending he was getting cooked by Rayan Rupert, you have to give them a little time to walk back their hot takes.First of all, I never said about Vic's summer games. Second, I am talking about Pop. Third, do you get paid by the hour to stan for Wemby or is it a salary? Are you French? Just curious
By domino Go To PostPop was hanging it up if they didnt get the #1 pickDoubt. He purposely until Monty got paid to get paid. Also it seems like he can quit, hire a coach and still
get paid for being the president.
From what I understand, his wife dying made him not feeling retirement
By i can get you a toe Go To PostOn team glad Pop has a project with potential and not trying to salvage bullshit, personally.If he had a team full of bullshit, that's on him tho 😂😂
i dunno everyone just wants to see this kid get some grounding, haven't seen this much fervor over one guy in some time
not knocking the efforts of previous prospects and rookies but its a change of pace

By i can get you a toe Go To Posti dunno everyone just wants to see this kid get some grounding, haven't seen this much fervor over one guy in some timeAnd deserved but honestly LeBron who had that hype went to a bullshit franchise and started bullying grown men off rip. I kinda wanted to see the kid change a franchise rather than Pop getting rewarded for a 2nd tank job.

yes Charlotte deserved him
By domino Go To Postyes Charlotte deserved himI thought Charlotte would have been a good look
By DY_nasty Go To Postfuck yalYou guys haven't had the first since LJ right?
By Sharp Go To PostListen these people were pretending he was getting cooked by Rayan Rupert, you have to give them a little time to walk back their hot takes.Who mentioned Rupert's name??
By reilo Go To PostWho mentioned Rupert's name??
By Christberg Go To PostRayan Rupert showed me he needs to get way stronger to be an NBA player last game and he’s still manhandling Wemby
By Sharp Go To PostI'm convinced you didn't watch tonight's game
By diehard Go To Postgetting cooked and manhandled are pretty different thoughThis. Wemby got flailed and couldn't hold onto rebounds. He's just not that physical -- yer. Everyone knows this. It's a valid critique.
I always feel bad when I remember Asik because he had to retired due to a virus or disease he developed while on All-Star break in Mexico.
By reilo Go To PostI'm convinced you didn't watch tonight's gameIt's really not a turnover thing either. Dude just gets knocked off his spots by extremely regular contact.
In kib-speak, he's all wiggle/no ass. And that perimeter talk? That dream belongs on the shelf for a while fr
By DY_nasty Go To PostIt's really not a turnover thing either. Dude just gets knocked off his spots by extremely regular contact.Yea he got slightly bumped trying to dribble above the three point line by a wing and fell to the floor the very next millisecond. Portland was sending two to three guards and wings at him on the offensive rebound and he lost the ball on the bump/boxout a few times.
In kib-speak, he's all wiggle/no ass. And that perimeter talk? That dream belongs on the shelf for a while fr
And we're talking other 19-22 year olds who are a few years away from reaching their physical prime and half a foot shorter.
Boxing out Giannis or Jokic? Forget it. If he even gets to KG's or Hakeem's level of physical capabilities he'll be dangerous but he's so far removed from that.
And like I said that's all okay but we can't just operate here that the most hyped prospect since Lebron isn't without criticism.
By DY_nasty Go To PostIt's really not a turnover thing either. Dude just gets knocked off his spots by extremely regular contact.Someone else said its similar to Embiid's issues...all that giant guard shit is cute until teams simply key in on your big ass and then its free eats. Jokic plays on the perimeter but keeps shit simple ands then big bodies his way. Wemby (and Biid) are too light in the legs and thus are easy as fuck to push out of position
In kib-speak, he's all wiggle/no ass. And that perimeter talk? That dream belongs on the shelf for a while fr
lmao
jose is being interviewed at summer league. doris asked him about repping puerto rico and going up against ingram and team usa a month from now. jose said he is going to give ingram 50.
a minute later, naji marshall (sitting next to jose) passed him a phone. apparently, ingram had facetime running and wanted to talk shit with jose about their matchup next month.

Interesting. LaMelo's contract has a 15% trade kicker 😂 why do I feel like Scoot being talked up had something to do with this
By Kibner Go To PostIt's all fun and games until teammates hurt each other during international play 😂
My guy Podz was one rebound short of a triple double tonight (just don't look at his shooting splits).
I don’t think you need a scouting department to take a 7’5 player who can move like a wing
LeBron got drafted 20 years ago and still has skewed peoples expectations of what a young player can do, let alone one exceeding those expectations. He’s treated as the norm when he’s the anomaly.

By s y Go To PostHe looks awful, Pop is not finishing that contract
I made it about 5 secs before closing, he too dusty looking and loud for me to take seriously.
By DY_nasty Go To PostLet me tell you about a man named Wesley Johnson…Shit, Evan Turner flimflammed in that same draft
By Rob Go To PostI don’t think you need a scouting department to take a 7’5 player who can move like a wingIt is just business. The media needs the number 1 pick to be the next generational player.. they tried to make Blake that dude for a few years.

By reilo Go To PostAnd ZionZion, at least, has played like that guy. When he actually plays, which is a rarity.
By blackace Go To PostIt is just business. The media needs the number 1 pick to be the next generational player.. they tried to make Blake that dude for a few years.Blake had at least as good of a rookie season as LeBron (he was two years older so it's kind of expected), it's just that he didn't improve that much afterwards.
