CMB looks slow, unathletic and small.

Essengue hasn’t logged a single minute with the Bulls.

This wing heavy Knicks roster is causing problems, they’ve been forced to run McBride in crunch time. The Bulls just trap Brunson, and once he kicks it out, their defense has already won. They’re content letting Mikal, McBride, or OG try to create off the dribble.

Fears looks promising.. skilled, composed, and advanced for his age. Queen, on the other hand, might not even be in the league if he wasn’t a lottery pick and the Pelicans hadn’t overpaid to get him.

Sell high on Banchero.

Still early, but I have my eyes on Flagg.

Embarrassing for Ja - such a bummer to see his talent wasted because of his ego. People talk about why don’t we have American superstars anymore but we did. Problem is that they were Ja & Zion and they fumbled their opportunities.

Mentioning Giddy, it’s crazy that OKC traded him and they don’t even care. In fact, it was the right move and won them a title. Any other team trading Giddey and seeing him blossom elsewhere would be agonizing over it.

I will be extremely happy if the Knicks "window" is already closing.

Agreed, Paolo is ultimately fraudulent and ORL should sell high.

Flagg is being asked to do way too much, and he doesn't even turn 19 until (basically) Christmas.

Forget Ja and Zion. We already have a new young American superstar. His name is Tyrese Maxey.

Maxey has the personality and game to be really huge. Nice like Steph Curry, game like Steph and Iverson mixed together. Been in the league what feels like forever, but only 24 as of today at least. I was really disappointed he didn't go to Olympics last year. Would've been a great experience for him. He'll get there though

I think OKC has what is know as an embarrassment of riches.

If Orlando os going to sell Banchero, then sign me up.
Also, It looks like Memphis and New Orleans might be shaking things up. I can see Ja and Zion being moved this season. Me personally, I've got my eye on Scottie Barnes. Does Toronto move him eventually? Walker Kessler is a usual suspect as is Lauri. It's early, but never too early to talk trades. I don't see us as buyers in any of this unfortunately.

Paolo is such a weird player lol.

on paper he is huge, able to dribble and thus create his own shot, get into the paint and all that jazz but doesnt always use that ability at all.


and I want to blame the teams makeup but ehhh..

however, he showed up in the playoffs while his teammates shat the bed so who knows

Reed Sheppard gambles too much defensively, playing a lot like Robert Covington without Covington’s length to cover for it. He’d be better off tightening up, staying disciplined, and focusing on staying in front of his man and be selective on his gambles, the way Fred Vanvleet does.

Paolo feels like a spiritual cousin of Brandon Ingram. Lots of talent but too in love with difficult midrange jumpers.

Looks like Ja and JJJ might have beef with the coach in MEM?
