All I know is I'm really looking forward to watching Shead and CMB on the floor together.

The more clips I watch the more I think he's like Corliss Williamson. I thought Amare as well but if you remember Amare he was quite the strong finisher, and CMB doesn't have that in his game. Kind of the same issue we have with Barnes, doesn't use his length to finish strong

He may also be like Ed Davis - who was automatic and crafty around the basket. I liked him.

thinking on it. masai is probably sort of gambling/hoping that he can possibly make a kawhi-sized leap with his jumper because if that hits, he's basically a kawhi-like with his defense/measurables/playmaking and scoring inside the arc. I don't know that he gets there, because no one can predict shooting, but I think that's part of the rationale beyond that he can be an instant contributor off-the-bench and fits what they like in terms of grit/competitiveness.

obviously that's a very high benchmark but there's a reason why masai drafted him over some of the other prospects out there, who also had lots of potential.

I think they'll envision him ideally as a possible future 3 or 4 instead of a small 4/5 but that would be down the road.

Yeah, I have a feeling those guys are going to have instant rapport on and off the court.

His defense better be damn **** good… is he a lockdown 1 on 1 guy? Or is he just supposed to be another team defender like Scottie Barnes, who’s measurables and athleticism looked even better than cmbs?

Idk man, maybe he’ll pan out, I just don’t understand the direction here.

This may as well be what you post in every draft thread. It's been the case forever, and will likely continue to be the case, that you just don't understand.


You mean like the dick draft where I actually liked the pick at the time because we needed shooting? The actual production hasn’t been what I expected though. Or the Barnes draft where I actually didn’t mind the pick at all.

What drafts are you talking about specifically? I’m sure every draft and every pick the raptors make you agree with yes?

He's pretty young for a sophomore. He's basically going to be the same age as Scottie (2 months younger) was when he entered the league, despite having two years of college experience rather than one.

Yeah, I think they see him as OG's replacement.

Defensive bench line-up of:

Stretch Big
CMB
Mogbo
Ochai
Shead

Mogbo should only be working on 3's all off-season. None of those Scottie Barnes shenanigans where he's working on his mid-range game and floaters, no need for that.

It's kinda funny how mock drafts set the expectations and then fans get upset when the professionals go in another direction. I'd trust the raptors rankings over any other list.

CMB has a high ceiling, hopefully they can fix his shot.

You have been saying you would outline it on realgm for 2 years now. Come on man, you can be the one to take down Masai
