Cooper will be an amazing player going fowards but being talked/hyped up about as being the best white American prospect since Larry Bird is a very heavy and unfair burden.


Lol. Who is he competing against? Hayward? Morrison? Flagg clears all of them easily

McDermott was not a great prospect. And Bird didn't even go number 1 in his own draft class. Rick Robey was a white American prospect that went 3 picks ahead of Bird.

Pels are like the title team Warriors in the 3rd quarter. Except the very exact opposite.

The Mavericks in theory should be one of the best equipped teams to defend Victor and he is completely eating them alive. Scary for the rest of the league

I mean, if this is what Wemby is going to look like this season, he might be the best player in the NBA. Not sure there's a single player, asset, or combination of players and assets you'd trade Wemby for if he's going to look like this consistently.

That said, it's one game, so we'll see.
