He can probably defend SF, offensively he is more a PF. SB’s can take SF.

If Barnes turns into Giannis and Ingram is healthy, And Barrett becomes a sniper 3 point shooter....Sure...
But thats a 6th/7th/8th seed first round exit team.

I think if CMB gets a decent shot he will be. OGs ability to put the ball on the floor and get to the basket is pretty bad. CMB is already way better than him at that it seems. You could say CMB is Sabonis with Kawhi defence with Randles ability to attack the rim. He is a very unique player build and I don't think there's really anyone like him in the NBA.
Scottie and CMB gotta be able to play 3-5 from now on.

Huh...are you being sarcastic?Edit: I understand what you meant now but I don't think he ever becomes a shooter.

A big do it all forward with question marks shooting wise are like the definition of high ceilings
He reminds me of Yang.raincityraptors wrote:My favorite Raptor of all time is Gasol. He was a maestro on offence and defense. You could watch him on any play and see how he was contributing to winning.
On some plays, CMB is like that. His floor is high but I hope his ceiling is too. He's worth developing, can contribute on day one and will make a playoff rotation.
If we end up trading RJ, I know who my new favorite player on the team is.
Thanks Masai, Bobby and the scouting team.
