He definitely Batum'd the **** out of that one 3

Darryl might have really cooked this draft huh

Bona is going to hurt himself trying for some of these blocks

Early summer league and all but McCain looks like a lot better on ball than advertised

Edwards is balling out

people said that it could have been moreso the fact that Proctor and Roach couldn't play off ball at all

Bona on the other hand looks more like a project, guy drops too deep and has missed a lot of rotations thus far.

I didn't see the game yesterday tho

He has to harness his energy is all.

he just goes at full speed all the time and his athleticism allowed him to get away with it for his whole career but that becomes something to be used against you over time. He was electric in the combine games IIRC but damn near fouled out lol.

Is there a specific reason we're playing so much zone?

Yeah, his screens look pretty legit, the athleticism is there, but I'm weary of centers that are lost on rotations. Mostly because defense is like 99% of what a center can offer in today's game.

Dowtin = Melton 2.0?

McCain's p&r passing is pretty good. Drummond should get some easy dunks this season

McCain looking good for you all tonight, & Bona wants to yam it on everyone.

Murray_17 · Post #174 » by **Murray_17** » Tue Jul 9, 2024 11:32 pm

Yeah, McCain looks a lot better as a distributor than i thought.

He has Melton potential as a finisher on traffic tho lol

Back to back games Bona's been called for defensive 3 seconds. I think he's struggling in zone

classic sixers drought

Again, he drops too **** deep. He's stays below the basket when the ball is on the top of the key

He's an absolute dawg though. Love his energy

Yeah, these are fixable things that you do by habit.

I just think he's more of a project than what people were saying.

we should resign Dowtin over Lowry IMO
