The thing is, he already shows potential for a jumper. He's taking those shots, maybe at as often, but if he keeps working on it, it is very realistic that he will have a reliable jumper.

Love 'Reke & 'Rio off the bench

Hopefully, Parsons moves into the starting line up sooner than later. If somehow the Griz can just go back in time and draft Harden instead of Hasheem lol

With how well Ennis fits the starting unit, Parsons is almost better off staying on the bench in the stretch 4 role. Not 100% on this, but his best numbers came at the 4 throughout his career (in stretches).

The main guy that needs to exit the rotation is Harrison. Not sure if Ben Mclemore or Wayne Selden will be the answer at SG when they return, but they have to be better than Harrison cuz he ***

On another note, has Ricky Rubio become a reliable spot up 3 pt shooter?

It seems like every time I tune in a Jazz game (which is not a lot), he takes an open three. 4/7 last night.

If Lonzo hadn't gone as high as he did it would have made a lot more sense. That and if they hadn't made a certain trade. The "haters" spoke about it extensively, his flaws prevent him from being what he's billed as. He's not a franchise changing player by himself. Had he been picked closer to 10 than 1, we don't have the same discussions as the expectation is completely different. He just got thrown into a terrible situation for who he is as a player. He'll be good, I just don't see superstar in the cards.

Bingo. You hating though.

What more can you say about Dirk

It was a thrill for Joel Embiid to face Dirk Nowitzki for the first time. "I wanted to use his move against him. I almost did, but the ball got stripped." Embiid worked out with Nowitzki in Africa this summer and calls him "one of my big brothers."

6 games man . This hot take culture is something else.

There are like 15 different 6 game stretches during the season.

With that said....I'm hoping this "superteam" in okc continues to play at a 47 win pace

 

[NickFolarin]

Melo was robbed of the ROTY & African Dirk praise

This thread is off to a good start this morning!!!

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Don't care if it's 6 games or not, The Mask knows what's good. Let this take live on for eternity idc

Rick Carlisle on Ben Simmons (23 points, 7 rebounds, 8 assists): "Everybody knew he was gonna be good, but he's way better than expected."

They did dummy dirty in 04

All to "build L3/8ron's "Legacy" smh. This was good guy Melo. Baltimore Melo. Myrtle Ave, westide melo. When Melo used to talk like us



How you average 21 & 6 as a rookie...on better efficiency than Bron. In the Western Conference. And be the #1 option on a team that won 17 games the year prior....to 43 wins and a playoff birth when they added you as a 19 year old. Smh

**** Bron.

Melo when he wore PE’s >>>
