The Official Kristaps Porzingis Thread
I see every other thread is about something Porz did.
Every other board has a main thread for their rookie. I think we should have this one just be focused on everything Porzingis instead of having 10 thread on the 1st page about him.
Anywho, I was hoping that he would average 12/8 in his rookie season because that is close to what Brow averaged his rookie season. I saw this as a benchmark for whatever reason of whether he would be good going forward.
So far
12.3pts/8.3rbs/1.5stls/1.2blks with his shooting percentage slowing creeping up higher than 40 percent and a PER of 20
I know its only 6 games in and HE WILL have slumps throughout but in comparison brow rookie year.
13.5pts/8.2rbs/1.2stls/1.8blks Per 21.7
Just saying...

Re: The Official Kristaps Porzingis Thread
What a unique talent. I hope they allow him to slowly fill out his frame and not try to turn him into a full-time center. I still feel that his final position is the power forward spot. It wouldn't shock me if he has a 20/16 or 20/18 game very soon.

#PutbackPorzingis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not going to pose as a Knicks fan but I'm happy for you guys and I think Kristaps will make you all very happy. I don't recall seeing a skill set like his ever.
Super Eagles GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Let's just change the board name to the "New York Kristaps"....
If you'd rather see your team fail so you can be right
...you are a fan of your opinion not the team.

Wisdom is knowing what to pull out of the bag to do the job

It's like someone went in a laboratory and conjured this kid up out of thought. The love child of KG and Dirk.

Re: The Official Kristaps Porzingis Thread
I think at this point, whatever he evolves into will be a unique player and we can throw all these comparisons out the window. I think in a few years people will be projecting rookie white stretch 4s to porzingis.

"But can he block shots like Porzingis..."
"But can he disrupt perimeter offense like Porzingis with his quickness and ability to play passing lanes..."
"But does he have face up game..."

Also, the most impressive part of the putback dunk last night to me was that the possession actually originated with a missed FT by Galloway that Porzingis pulled down by just throwing himself into the lane and crashing the glass hard - that putback was his second OReb of the play:
