No, because they're too busy worshipping Bronny james

OKI am sold if we going to take a lefty big man. I would prefer kenny loften junior over omari williams

For whatever that is worth

Walsh might be good but he makes bad decisions when he has too much time to think. When he hesitates he hurts the ballclub.

Don't think meat, Just throw.

Lofton is a bum but you watch him move and the way he plays, at least he’s giving maximum effort out there. Watch Amari Williams “play” and the difference is drastic. I don’t think Williams or Schluga have earned a two way quite frankly

Already..from day 1 as a rookie is one of the better passing bigs in the league:

Nice pass by Bronny to Norris

bucknersrevenge · Post #1688 » by **bucknersrevenge** » Fri Jul 18, 2025 2:25 am

Not saying he makes the team but Lofton looks better the last 2 games.

What's Lofton's 3pt percentage, all-time?

cut amari and sign lofton. he's younger and probably has way more upside if he gets his weight under control lol

He’s trying to announce his presence with authority

Going to be interesting to see what Brad does with the two ways. Could be people not even in the organization

the way the crowd cheers for bronny reminds me of whenever scal used to get into games in the latter part of his career

It will be more interesting when they finally go to 5 x Two-Ways.

I'd keep him over Norris; I know that.

They were just drafted so signing a 2-way is a formality.

No team would draft a guy and then cut them right afterwards. That's just not something that teams do.

Watson was 54th pick last year and it was a formality that he'd be on a 2-way..and remember how shocked everyone was when he was waived? He was waived in March..it was even more shocking when the pacers waived Tristen Newton, after they just drafted him in the 2nd round and he was on a 2-way.

Those 2 cases were very rare, outlier cases. Most times, if you draft a guy and put them on a 2-way, they're on your team for at least a year.

If you draft a guy, they're guaranteed to be either on the standard roster or a 2-way (unless they're a draft and stash). And if they're on a 2-way, they never get waived until January at the earliest.

Drafting a guy and then waiving them after SL would be poor asset management. Teams don't do that.

If you draft a guy, it's because you believe in them. You wouldn't just give up on them after 4 meaningless SL games.

Not that I love either player but definitely Wong > Shulga
