I thought he’d show a really high motor based on watching him in hs and college but he really hasn’t so far. Maybe he needs to get in better physical shape?


He's playing out of position. He is most comfortable at the 4 but it's where AD usually plays. And with AD in the lineup he's very hesitant to attack or even shoot.


The Mavs were the absolutely worst team he could have gone to in terms of fit for him to have a breakout first season.

8 Bulls in double figures tonight (without Coby White). Something worth monitoring as we move forward.

Spurs may go 82-0 with Wemby if he's healthy all season. League is officially cooked.

RIP NBA 1946-2025.

So far Cam Johnson has not found his rhythm with the Nuggets.

Statkeeping is wrong, he definitely had a block in the 3rd already. At least, I think I remember a 2nd as well

Lakers will trade Ayton +expirings +FRP, Pel will do it. Zion then turned up for games as a Laker, everyone starts talking how the league is rigged again :lol:

He is such a player, and really fills a need for OKC (backup ball handler).

I'll be really curious what the rotations look like when Jalen Williams, Caruso, Isaiah Joe and Topic come back. It's a great problem to have but that guard rotation is going to leave somebody out unless they just deal with injuries all year.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Joe and Topic dealt at the deadline.

Spurs looking scary without Fox, Sochan, Kornet and Olynyk (he's gonna be deep bench, but still better than Biyombo).

How are the Nuggets losing to the ANT-less Wolves? They should have this.
