Starter by year 2 is interesting


How?? At the 4? the 5? No way we go into next season with Pascal at the 4 and really think we are trying to win the chip. He would have to turn into Ibalka 2.0 overnight.


Dude can play!

I honestly think norman powell can take this team to that next level and turn us into a championship contender.

You haven't even seen him play in Year 1 and you already say he can't possibly start in Year 2? If he's a draft steal, overlooked playing in a small conference, of course he can start on a good team. Kawhi Leonard started in Year 2, no? And I think there are some pretty good guys in last year's draft class who I think could start on elite teams had they been drafted by them. So you can't just shut the door and make assumptions. Not without a little more evidence.

Yes! Definitely the most dynamic young player we've had in years. The fact that he gets it done on both sides of the ball is so encouraging. He and Jonas are the future of this squad. I just hope Demar doesn't get in the way financially when it's time to re-negotiate his deal.

Sully reads RealGM confirmed.

I can already imagine the Matt Devlin call when Kyle throws him an alley-oop. "Microbooty to Megabooty, with the slam!"

You nor even the raptor staff have seen him play pro ball outside of a 1st quarter in SL. He was drafted 28th? Kawhi was still late lottery. So pardon me if I have some caution about the fact that our end of the 1st round Pascal will be our starter by yr 2 and we go into that season trying to upset Clv

It's just the management covering their butt so they don't have to pay PP.

They know if they pay PP and Lowry they'll be over the cap by almost 35 million. That's a lot of luxury tax right there. They're preparing us to believe we can let PP walk and be okay

There got to be a reason why they considered Skal and Davis at 9, but then passed on them when they were still there at 27. Prior to this draft, Raps 905 drafted Pascal's brother James. When you look at was Sac got for the 9th pick, it wasn't much. We could very easily went up a spot and drafted Chriss as a potential long term 4 if we wanted to. I think the reason we didn't, is the same reason we didn't take Skal or Davis at 9, because we felt we had another hidden gem in Siakam. Maybe we knew more about him? Maybe there hunch will be right, this time. To me, it does seem they are higher on Pascal. And it seemed like that the day of the draft.

It also fits the mould. Before Bruno was drafted, there was no mention of who it was, but there was a talk internally that they felt really good about the prospects for their 2nd round pick, which was the hiding game they played with Bruno. Except, they got so excited they took him in the 1st round instead of waiting. I'm not saying Pascal's gonna be like that, because i could tell from him 1 half of summer league that he's already better. If he can get a shot, he can be really good, imo.
