By rodeoclown Go To PostWell there was some Porzingis buzz that hasn't really gone away because he plays in New York.Zingis hit the rookie wall pretty hard
He's way better than Wiggins. I would probably argue that Towns is a way better ball handler and passer than Wiggins. Which is probably not great when the latter is supposed to be the primary scorer. Andrew is still a pretty limited player, who does one thing really, really well: get to the foul line. Not that I'm like totally down on the kid, I just really hoped to see more from Wiggins this year.
By reilo Go To PostgtfoWell, he's a better shooter, at least.
I'm actually feeling slightly better about Zach, now that's playing off ball exclusively. He's an atrocious defender, but he does have value scoring, especially from deep where nobody on the Wolves is good (40% the last two months+ from 3).
By rodeoclown Go To PostWell, he's a better shooter, at least.Wiggins has been shooting it a lot better recently, though. He still takes a small amount (< 2 attempts a game), but it's not atrocious. Since January 20th (22 games), he's shooting 37.5% from three on 1.8 attempts. With a better coach that's not stuck thinking we are still watching the Spurs and Pistons play each other in the Finals, if he can get that number around 35% on 3-4 attempts a game then he'd be golden.

There's other things I really want to see Wiggins expand on, though, like rebounding, ball handling, passing. But I mean, he's barely 21, he has all the time in the world and I think people knew that he was fairly raw coming out of college, except like his post up game, which is solid. He needs to figure out how to impact the game when he's not scoring.
I really caution that you look at Derozan as a 20, 21, and 22 year old. Worse across the board, but look at him now. Still a below-average three-point shooter but you can survive that okay if you got other pieces.

Really? You must have think Jimmer fredette and Austin Rivers was good too.

Same fan base that wanted landry fields to be an all star.
By giririsss Go To PostSame fan base that wanted landry fields to be an all star.Then talked mad shit when he got paid by Toronto.
Larry Sanders said he's interested in coming back to the NBA. He's still only 27, and he has Laker season tickets 🤔
By pilonv1 Go To PostHe'd be killer on the Bucks instead of Monroe.Not making a case for monroe on that team, but they don't need another person who can't shoot.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Posthm +1200 on heat taking the east…Word?
By DY_nasty Go To PostHe'd be smart to come to CharlotteDy with hope.
what a time.
Was for the bench blowup. Apparently he was pissed after the game, too. He's had blowups this year, so an accumulative thing.

You could probably suspend half of the Kings organization for conduct detrimental to the team.

Their defense would be incredible though. Can always add shooters and Jabari could develop some range
RT @ChrisMannixYS DeMarcus Cousins continued to vent at George Karl after the in-game confrontation, per sources. Got into it w/GM Vlade Divac, too.

By Moris Go To PostZingis hit the rookie wall pretty hardIt's hard getting easy shots when you have shitty ass PGs on your roster.
The guy is gassed. Knicks have dropped his minutes all the way down to the 20-24 range and he still has nothing at the end of games. Grind of the season caught up to him, gonna need to eat some burgers and hit the gym.
By rodeoclown Go To PostWell, he's a better shooter, at least.Zach is going to get better too...

Zach is basically JR Smith minus the hood stupid
By DominicanPower Go To PostI like how Lakers fans all of sudden are sticking their chest out.Remember how knicks fans were counting their lucky stara about how fortunate they were to dropping to the 4th pick?
I do
does okafor even exist anymore there is like no news of him. seems like he is injured and his stats look like Zach Randolph 2.0
Does Embiid have any progress? so many unknown
Does Embiid have any progress? so many unknown
By Kuma Go To PostSixers a shit show right nowright now? Not the last 3 years?
I feel like okafor is too skilled not to find a way to improve his defense and rebounding but who knows
By reilo Go To Postoh me oh my
Am I the only one who was happy to hear he's left for good?
By Kuma Go To PostI am being nice :-\hard to sugar coat shit
By Kabro Go To PostDlo>porzyKAT > Booker > *
