Tibor Pleiss

[bbms]

Unfortunately the only thing we can really do about is read, take a look at stats and watch youtube videos. From watching the tape and analysing the stats, he isn't nearly on the same level of offensive polish Scola is, and he loses to Splitter too. But he's indeed a fine rebounder. Most of his highlight points come of pick and roll and putbacks, which is what we should look forward to have him around.

His defense looks promising too.

Anyone have more info on our other european prospect, Abrines? I heard he has a smooth stroke and looks like a promising shooter. Any player comparisons, how is his year going?

I would say he looks like he may have a decent chance to pull the Cook role his first year. I've heard he wanted to be a 2nd rndr so he could sign for more....dont know if there's truth behind that.

Thanks, what exactly would the Cook role look like then? When is he supposed to come over?

[Podirk]

Cook role:
5- 10 min depending on if he's hot or someone is in foul trouble.

I think he is Lamb back up, he runs around and hits threes. I would think he will wait at least another year after this one to get two years after draft but I'm not sure if that means anything for a 2nd rounder? He was also drafted at a young age. I would think another 3 years and he will come over. May need to come over earlier if Thabo and Fisher are gone? but I'd think we find someone else with a bit of exp.

Has anyone seen anywhere listing Pleiss's wingspan? I have searched all over for it and just see "has a huge wingspan" or other general phrases but no record of what it actually is.

[Podirk]

Have seen some social media recently around another team (overseas) possibly looking to buyout his contract, which would mean more money for his current team then an NBA buyout. Not sure the impact it would have on him coming over next season.

I'll say again the quote from a few months back..'NBA is the goal in 2014' we shall see if he meets that goal.

Sup guys? German Basketballfan here. Just dropping in to tell you that Tibor exploded for 30 Points 13 Reb in 27 minutes two days ago vs Milano. Both are Euroleague highs for him. I think he can be a great addtion for your team in the coming years and I hope he will make the jump to the nba next season.

Heres the statsheet vs milano

Impressive.

I believe it was earlier this week Presti was overseas watching a game of Tibors. I think he got in early foul trouble but finished with 25 min and a double double.

Presti may be trying to sort out his priorities, buyouts, other offers, etc.
