Markelle Fultz NEEDS to get on the court and work out the kinks so he's as defensively seasoned as a rookie can possibly get.


You're ruining it for me. I was planning to post this as an insider info I got from Brett. :lol:

Lebron hasn't lost a first round playoff game in 5 years.

Im starting to see why DLo is a big negative. His offense is inconsistent, his D is non existent.

If the current situation continues much longer it is only a matter of time until Lavar’s comments start causing problems.

Hey, Jerryd, you're guarding Kyrie every minute you're on the floor in this series.

At least Dlo provides the distributing element that Devin Booker lacks.

If you're going to be a 1-way player, being multi-tooled is preferred.

Dlo heating up. Scored 6 points in the last minute of play.

Josh Jackson was one of my fav players for the last draft. He has been less than impressive thus far. He has an NBA ready body, is speedy and had great defence in college. I know it is early in his career, but what the hell is going on? I thought he would be coming out the gates the fastest.

Hmm.. What if it's LBJ who wants this ISO heavy offense in preparation for his old man post heavy game that he keeps on mentioning lately? Maybe that's why LBJ got defensive with all those workout videos in the offseason.

Like Lonzo, they're not good enough to carry much responsibilities. Put them on a lighter role and they'd provide better impact and efficiency. Higher roles make them toxic

Check out the rookie stat lines for Pippen, Butler, Leonard, McGrady, or more recently Brandon Ingram, and you’ll feel a little better!

He probably just isn't all that good.

Yeah its always easy and fun to make fun of a team that isn't fully healthy with what they got back in the trade.

Isaiah hasn't even played yet, and the Cavs got the Nets pick. They will be fine, at least this year they will be when Isaiah comes back. Seems like when a player is hurt, people always doubt him.....ask Jojo, Ben, and now Markelle.

The Lakers are heading to Boston on Wednesday.

Who would you rather have between Brandon Ingram and Jaylen Brown?
