So a center version of Ajax?

Ultra Ajax

I had high hopes for Delon. But he has lost complete confidence in his shot and became unplayable.

Who's going to start the Hugo Besson Appreciation thread?

Sims is nice... Position of need and athletic

Sims can set a screen. Dame to Sims pick and roll unleashed

drone3 · Post #871 » by **drone3** » Thu Feb 6, 2025 4:10 am

Dame / Rollins
Green / GTJ
Kuzma / Prince / Ajax
Giannis / Portis
Brook / Sims

We have a lot of stretch 4s. Next on list of needs is backup PG and defensive wing

Mathias Lessort apparently wanted to come over to the NBA last year but was stuck under contract and didn't have a buyout. Sounds like he might try again this summer, b2b 1st team All Euro League. 29 years old.

Dame’s gonna make this dude a useful player.

Khris should tank the medical. It wouldn't be a stretch.

If Kuzma really shouldn’t play SF…then we should really do something about our reliance on Prince.

RealGM is the most fragile site on the internet. A little activity and it goes down.

Not gonna lie, I thought Besson looked pretty decent during our awful SL this year. Bit bummed to toss him in there, but Delon was poopy.

Kuzma is a 4 but I think he prefers to play the 3

Sims is a dunker spot operator/lob threat. We’ve literally never had someone next to Giannis who can do that. He’ll throw down the occasional highlight dunk and clean up some stuff around the rim. I’m not expecting much but hopefully he shows out and earns a role here.

Like someone just said, he’s the center version of Ajax but he’s not afraid to dunk, which is a plus.

He’s at least worth a flier.

*This team desperately needs a backup PG who we can actually trust come playoff time.

Ok, but I’m not sure I’d want to trade it for the internet version of Kuzma.

I’m thinking of changing my name to kuzmectomy.

I would love to hear what the insider knows about Middleton’s health. I could imagine Middleton was aware all season he was
1) cooked and
2) going to be traded and was using all his last reserves in loyalty to Giannis.

I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

Middleton is an all time favorite Buck for me, up there with Moncrief, Pressey, Giannis and Marques Johnson.
