Or maybe he just really likes to play for the greatest sports team in history? Lots to like with this guy. He's a lock to make the roster for me. And a good shot at making the regular season (10-man) rotation.
He’s talented and has good feel but I still worry about him “juanchoing” aka in real games everything would be close but not in. If he hits he can be Fournier but man that defense is pretty atrocious. I like him though
He plays when he makes shots. If he doesnt makes shots, and his defense is awful, he sits. Not every player on the team has to be a high ceiling guy. THat's what got us in trouble in the inge era. Too many players who were developmentally, theoretically, with high ceilings but with no developed high-level skill.
Brad is doing opposite. He is like Miami and Pat Riley. He has his stars, and core players -- the top 6. He is filling in vet role players around them who can play off those guys. The role players will have their strengths amplified playing with that core 6, and their weaknesses hidden.
But none of our 7-15 is going to be mistaken or sold as a future all-star, or as a potential high leverage trade piece. The only one I see that even has potential to develop like that is Walsh since he is young, has a wiry body and athletic, great skills and was a top 10 kid out of high school. But he's years away.
That's why PP is gonna be a monster off the bench this season.
