Can't believe I'm typing this but I'm a Boliever

If he can just not do dumb **** he's useful because his ridiculous length gets in the heads or opponents.

Yea, Bol kinda grew on me - might need to get it checked with a doctor

Jokes aside, in the last 10 or so games that he played he has been better (or had a better overall effect to be exact) than any of our bench bigs/wings in the season. That is a bit encouraging, but also speaks volumes on how bad (in no order of preference) Okogie, Little, KDB, Yuta, Eubanks, Metu, Azubike have been...

I thought he still passed up so many open threes last night, but dude is just too big.

There was one of them that I yelled 'jusy shoot' at the TV but I actually took this as a good sign that Bol is trying to be a good little soldier out there. His biggest issue in his career so far is thinking he's KD so him not yolo'ing every possible 3 might be a sign of maturity.

I think a major theme to this whole season has been guys not quite sure when to let it fly or defer to teammates. Both the big 3 and the role players have been guilty as they try to learn to play together.

Bol Bol > Eric Gordon

Not sure about Bol yet.

Still has the same weaknesses 3 point shooting and turnovers.

Won't be shooting 81% from 2 forever to offset that.

If he shoots 30% from 3 and 80% from 2 teams will give him the Okogie defense and defend the drive and dare him to shoot.

I don't know if he's in the playoff rotation but damn if I'm not enjoy every minute he's on the court right now

When Bol Bol was starting for the Orlando Magic ,he passed up 3's and slowly brought it into his game .He's doing exactly what he did when he began starting with Banchero and Wagner. He's cautious but as you look at his stats right now he's piling up positive stats .

The real question is could Bol Bol become an all star and MVP one day or is that too far fetched?

If a bum with a similar frame and skillset like this Kevon Durand can become MVP, Bol is basically guaranteed

Bol just needs to bulk up and learn to play defense. For the ppl who said that he's not a good 3pt shooter are wrong, he just always hesitate to shoot the ball because maybe he feels like its isn't his place to shoot which annoys me with him because he's a very good shooter. He can play for me anyday, I'm a fan of his game

he cant defend in space AT ALL.
better positioning should do the trick for him bc hes just a gigantic human being.

Bump? It was poetry in motion seeing him and KD play off each other last night. 25pts 14 boards.

Needs to start going forward. Beal should be leader of bench unit when he returns. He can be #1 when KD/Book sit. The experiment of having them all play together should be put to rest.

Starters: Grayson/Booker/KD/Bol/Nurk
Bench/Reserves: Beal/Gordon/Oneal/Young/(one of Book/KD)

"He's been more than I expected. His intangibles, his work ethic, his IQ, all the stuff that I didn't really think about when it comes to Bol, that's the foundation of his game."

His 3p shooting has been a great surprise so far this season. Only 1 attempt per game but shooting a solid 37%

Last three games:

1/1 against Detroit
2/3 @ Houston
1/4 against LA

Man, I love Bol Bol. It's strange that this is the case, but aside from health, his development is the most important factor in our championship hopes, IMO. Without him as a positive contributor in our rotation, I don't think we have a shot. But if he can get close to meeting his potential, then... maybe?

[Frank Lee]

Enjoy him now because I don’t think there is any way we can keep him next yr. He will be due a decent raise. Clearly a contributor. Turns out he may be the best off season grab Junkyard made last yr. Neck and neck with Gordan, who is benefiting nicely with Beal always on the heal.

Bol Bol and his 7'8 wingspan single handedly salvaged our offseason.

Glad to have been wrong about this guy. Good contributions so far. Eubanks was giving me Ayton flashbacks with his stone hands and stiff movement.
