Bol Bol was such a sad story in terms of how he fell in the draft.

I hope the kid finds success beyond these scrimmages.

Looking good here.

I don't think the issue with him was every really his talent but the perception that he would never be able to stay healthy. He's made it through a couple scrimmages and looks good, but time will tell if his body holds up

I still follow Tommy Dee for the comedy, but he barely shows up on my feed anymore. This video makes up for it. Also, check out this bonus gem:

I think they have big plans for him. They ran a front court of Jokic, Plumlee, Bol. He just spotted up on the 3pt line. Just a huge front line.

I remember years ago you said that we shouldn’t settle in terms of being a follower on the current NBA trends and perhaps finding a way to make big lineups work could push us quicker to contender status.

Could you imagine a 7'2" swing man who can shoot the 3 at 40% and can cover the wings?

Lots of players look really rusty. Not sure 3 scrimmages is enough to get them back into rhythm

I like how he's able to make jumpers and shoot right over people in traffic, nice body control and follow thru for such a tall/slight frame

Yeah, agree. Mystery as to how he went undrafted. & we here (and most other people) are talking about Poku as a realistic lottery pick.

Denver and Dallas the two most dangerous non-top 4 record teams in the West.

Its easier to take chances when you have foundation types like the Joker already in place. Many teams are still looking for that first.

He didn't go undrafted he was selected 44th but yeah point taken. poku isn't a lottery pick btw.

The remaining 8 season games are useless to the majority of the teams. Their function is to give rhythm to the players.

No Brunson or Powell. Luka will be fine but looks a bit sluggish compared to some. Mavs don’t have a lot of experience, it’s a roster full of guys who’ve never played deep into the playoffs. I don’t think in a normal NBA world, which we are clearly not in, they’d pose a challenge to a top team.

I still hope the Nets make it to the playoffs. Better them getting steamrolled in the first round than getting that slim chance to leapfrog us in the lottery.

with the wizards not have any good players playing for them I doubt them leapfrog 5 games or so with 8 to play...they will be lucky to win 1 or 2 games with that roster.
