Around the NBA 11

I remember during the draft I thought Zion would be the closest LJ prospect there had been. He’s really rushed to the “ruined by injury” phase though

Just out of curiosity, what made you say this? I haven't really been tracking him, any highlights I should check out?

That behind the back pass around 3 Celtics defenders was fantastic. I had to rewatch that a few times.

In 24 games so far:

He has 59 assists on the season - which is lovely.

But he also has 41 turn overs on the season - which is not.

Watched him 3 or 4 games this season albeit in limited minutes. He's going to be pretty solid, but I still take the swing for the fences picks in Kai and/or Bouk.

The Pacers lost to the Bucks without Giannis and Middleton.

That Myles Turner statline is the Myles Turner experience.
That team badly needs a shakeup.

does Turner block out at least? it doesn't look like the Bucks dominated the offensive boards, so I guess he must?

It looks like we may have infected the Kings with covid. I feel bad for them, but by the end of the season it will have likely hit every team so it was only a matter of time.

Career shooting splits well under 40% every year he's played in the NBA. Career best FG % of 38.2% in 2019/20. :-?

I'm very happy we didn't pay him.

The Covid-19 outbreaks are getting worse and worse. And the band played on.

Mav's sign Marquese Chriss to fill in. Did that annoy anyone else?

2019/20 season he started 20 games for GSW averaging 9pts, 6 reb, 1 blk and 2 assists in 20 minutes a game.
he could probably start for us

I know Big Frank Kaminsky doens't get alot of love on this forum, but its notable that he is a top 10 defensive center right now some how according to defensive rating. In fact Big Frank has the 11th best net rating among all centers in the NBA, and the 4th best net among centers with 20 or more minutes per game. Quite Frankly he is having an awesome year.

interestingly enough Vernon Carey Jr has the lowest net rating in the nba among centers with an incredible rating of -64.3.

Yeah he would absolutely start for us, the dude is a low key stud and stats do nothing but confirm that. Chriss is one of those net rating superstars with an incredible 29.5 net on 16.4 mpg- being the only player in the top 15 with more than 15 minutes per game (and only 1 of 2 with above 10). Dude is a really solid rebounder and is a really reliable offensive option (again, the best offensive rating of any player with 15+ minutes per game) while still being less of a liability on D then plumdog.

Yeah Frank has had a incredible turn around, I get the vibe he hated it here though so I doubt he wouldn't have stuck around anyway
