Hasn't shown meaningful flashes in defence, dribbling or shooting and is undersized?

I disagree. This is a high-floor kind of guy.

I legit feel bad for CMB about that stupid "f*ck" moment lol "smh" it was so badly misinterpreted by so many idiots.

Even at first glance, live in the moment I interpreted the "shaking his head" as what he says it was - disbelief. Like "I can't believe this moment is happening as a 4 star recruit that NEVER got the attention the other top prospects did" -- and "F*CK" was just "f*ck this is just so crazy that's it's happening, I'm a top 10 pick as just some almost unknown prior to college and playing at small program (on the men's side) from South Carolina"...

It had to be a mindblowing moment to go from almost unknown to top 10 (period) and he just reacted without thinking for a second what it does it look like.

And all the dumb Canadian inferiority complex "fans"/casuals (ie/ cried about OG, cried about Walter lol) just had to pounce all over that with their pathetic insecurity. I just hope that all the real Raps fans QUICKLY drown out that vocal minority because I heard a real sincerity to what CMB said and what his bro has echoed. Ofc I wish he was a better shooter (and hopefully that improves) but I'm legit happy to have the kid on the team and love everything else about his whole vibe & game. I think by the time he hits his prime, he's gonna be one of the better forwards in the league.

... what?

The whole scouting report is about his defensive potential, and how he has more handles than some expect.

What are you talking about?

I don’t think players should get assists for passing to open players behind the arc.
It’s too easy.

Some players refuse to make those passes.

You get an assist for making the appropriate/ intelligent play that leads to a score.

Yeah, that's about as long as I can go watching both teams not score a basket.

I'm seeing him in the Zion mould.

Obviously less athletic, but a bulky, undersized PF who can handle the ball and pass.

He's going to bully people in Summer League and start the fap-fest.

I see Zion too minus the flashy dunks. CMB is plenty athletic to do the things he needs to do; he is just not the jump out of the gym type.

I see this too. CMB is going to be dominant. People are saying he just used his physical advantage to get numbers in college. That isn't correct he uses a combination of size and skills. He could be dominant similar to Zion it'll be seen in the SL.
