Mo will end up being an elite 3 point shooter from the center spot.

You claimed he will be averaging 20-12-4 last year

Players do improve over time!
I will say this, Mo is not a finished product and hopefully this summer he will continue to improve his overall game!
Right now his game is shooting 3s and protecting the rim!
Both look like they'll be elite shooting big men.drsd wrote:basketballRob wrote:Mo will end up being an elite 3 point shooter from the center spot.
So, you project Bamba's shooting upside as Wendell Carter Jr.

The problem with Mo isnt real his skill, IMO. The guy is a Sports Car with a Hyundai engine.
Nice body but his motor is bad.
Like I’ve been saying before, I don’t see how you really improve the motor over time. Its either you bring it every game or not, it is that simple. And yet, Mo’s games leaves a lot to be desired.
In fact, his impressive start to the season did him no good. Because we all saw how impressive he can be, but his performance just went down, slowly.
I still wish he’d succeed, but this is a recurring issue since college.

The 1990's called and they want their car analogies back.
In 2021, Hyundai (also Genesis) makes some of the best motors in the industry.
How about we change the analogy to "a Sportscar body with a Yugo motor"?

We coulda had a Luka type player on our hands...

Mamba even with his weight, with Suggs or Franz attitude could be a beast.
Sometimes it seems that he only cares about shooting threes.
I always liked his skillset but he needs to work seriously on the attitudinal part.

Bamba is second on the team in minutes played, he just needs to get adjusted to that many minutes.Knightro wrote:basketballRob wrote:I think Mo will look better to fans here once he's on another team. WCJ used to get the same kind of hate on the Bulls board, now he's getting some praise.
Wendell is getting more praise than he used to get because he's actually playing better this year than he did the first three years of his career, not because he's on another team.
Bamba is not getting similar praise because he's the same not very good guy he's always been. He's just playing more minutes.

WCJ wasn't that bad when he was with the Bulls. They constantly trashed him. I asked them if he could play PF and it was a unanimous no, according to them he was too slow.
I think Bamba needs to get a fresh start somewhere else asap.
The point I was trying to make is that he was a good player for the Bulls, given his age. What WCJ is doing now isn't surprising to me.Knightro wrote:basketballRob wrote:Bamba is second on the team in minutes played, he just needs to get adjusted to that many minutes.

But you're missing the point. The fact that Bulls fans didn't like Carter is irrelevant to why he's getting more praise now. He's getting more praise now because he's playing better than he did before. He wouldn't be getting more praise if he was playing bad.
If Bamba was playing better, he'd be getting more praise. But he's not. So he's not.
