watch him buy an even bigger house there just to spite ppl. I wonder which team is willing to give up the value and salary needed to move him. Maybe the Sixers since Harden is leaving?

I don’t know if Philly has the assets to get it done. They’d have to attach Tobias Harris which is a negative asset as well.

Maxey + Harris + bunch of picks?
That's a young building block and picks from a team with Embiid/Lillard (injury prone/old). Pretty solid offer for the Blazers imo

Sidy rocking the Lamelo's maybe a sign he goes to Charlotte

Seriously, what is with these 18/19 year old kids looking like Jimmy Butler? Sidy and Scoot look physically ready to play in the NBA.

WTF!

He grew like an inch (not 2 or 3 though) since last year and seemed like he gained weight with that growth. Geez, now looks like he's been getting ripped in the off-season. This is scary how quickly he's been able to do it. Could see him bullying Coulibaly around.

Only reason to take Coulibaly over Cissoko is you believe that he will shoot 4-5% higher from 3 than Sidy.

That’s if they’d offer Maxey. I’m not sure that they do.

I hope JRoy celebrates responsibly

Between this and Sergio…I am going to have to accept run it back I think.

EDIT: I fell for click bait…replies are saying he is having another house built in Portland and likely close to being finished.

Honestly, any prospect outside of Wemby is on a two-year development path, so missing out on Bilal is not something you will notice for two years.

Look at how good Ousmane Dieng projected to be and where he is now; same with Poku. It just takes time and it is not like Bilal is head and shoulders above other players - the guy is 6'6" and pretty skinny. He just is playing a lot currently and it skews people's view of him.

I'd probably draft Rupert who I think will be just as good if not better. I think people really underrate how good a defensive prospect Rupert is. He also can run pick and roll and I think he will get to being an average three point shooter more quickly than Sidy and Bilal - but he did have an up and down shooting season compared to Sidy and Bilal but he had a broken wrist which had an impact.

C_Money · Post #1878 » by **C_Money** » Sat Jun 3, 2023 12:38 am

Bilal Coulibaly averages 6.9 FGA per 36 minutes. That is extremely low which leads me to believe he has a hard time getting a shot off or he’s very unaggressive offensively. He also rarely gets to the FT line.

Perhaps Masai can swap the #11 and #13 picks with Orlando as part of a Fred S&T? And/or Raps move all the way up to #3 or #4 as part of big deal.

Watch on YouTube

Wemby looked pretty bad

Coulibaly shaky too but it just confirms he's all flashes and needs time to bake in the oven
