Wares mobility as a big was probably at the absolute top of the list of necessary traits.

Some of ya'll don't get how big it is to a find a player that is :

1) Legit Huge
2) Legit athletic
3) legit skilled


Those guys are **** RARE.

We worked him out, so his mental must be good.

This kid can be top 3 in a re-draft after he showes he's not a headcase...the talent was never the issue.......

You mean like Niko?

You're welcome LeBron.

Tyler Herro is a TURD.
Bam is NOT elite but is getting better.
Fire Spoelstra!
Josh Heupel is coming for you.

I’m a proud admirer and lover of BBWs!

No more defending for three straight possessions cause we can't get a board. No more getting outrebounded by 20 a night. No more 6'5" shooting guards being forced to play out of position at power foward. It's time to back to Miami Heat basketball. Defense, rebounds, size.

Knecht to Lakers is a gold mine for them. He's exactly what they need.

Lol!!! All this means ware better be able to guard the perimeter because he's going to be out there defending the opposing pg/sgs while Herro and Rozier fight the center's ankle

Same here on the Ware pick.... So so on it but more interested on what direction the FO goes with JB.
