well, what do we have here ? good morning melo.....top of the morning to you

How convenient for you to dodge my Ayton post about you and then you wanna talk about Wiseman now

i didn't see it

also, ayton is way better than wiseman. he's basically unplayable. he's your mo bamba.

Mfer it’s in the last page. Liar :lol:

I refuse to concede about Wiseman until he proves he is a bust in his 3rd year like mo Bamba lol

that’s not even a slight against wiseman as much as it is an idiotic statement by Kerr. “I didn’t know the 19 year old prospect who played in 3 college games was gonna be this raw” :crazy:

How is James Wiseman looking so far? I am seeing not-so-good impressions by other people regarding his fit with GSW.

To me this is a special talent. He's extremely quick, that stands out to me.

Zion gives me a KD vibe in terms of overhype and overreaction. For more than a decade we keep listen how KD is the greatest scorer of all time how easily he can score 40 per game if he wanted it. Well, bruh, he only passed 30 twice.

It's the same with Zion. They are just lazy and inactive. I don't wanna hear what they could do, I'm interested in what they actually do.

Can't tell if serious, but if so, this is easily the worst post of the year or even beyond.

What the **** man, he didn't pass 30 twice, he won a championship twice and Zion's a 2nd year player averaging **** 26.7 ppg, 61 FG%. Is something wrong with you or was there a joke I missed?

A person who will take Immanuel Quickley’s minutes.

I remember having many arguments about Wiseman being raw but being told he wasn't cause of high school highlights

19/10/1 w/ 1.6 blocks on 52/32/63, .552 TS

21/11/1 w/ 1.4 blocks on 50/31/69, .562 TS

One of those is Wiseman's per36. The other is Marvin Bagley's rookie year per36

He did just turn 20 like 2 weeks ago though, and when you watch him, it's clear he does have talent. He's just really raw. I thought going to GS would be the best for him cause he'd have the easiest role and not have the pressure to be the guy from day 1, but it might be the opposite, he needs to be good right away at the things he wasn't good at in HS/college (mainly defense, and of that, the mental aspect of defense), and he's gonna hold them back until he does get good at those things

Granted, this was always gonna be more of a transition year for the Warriors anyways since Klay's missing the whole season, but he needs to put in the work over the summer, and if he does and Klay comes back with no complications, the Warriors are gonna be a force.

I said he was rawer than someone like Ayton. Never disputed that. But I used the high school footage to show he can shoot and he did that this year. He showed flashes of a mid range game, low post game and had games where he shot the 3.

It’s been pretty tough for Wiseman. He missed the majority of his college season, missed training camp, had a wrist injury this season, missed games because of Covid protocols and then tore his meniscus once he finally started to get in a rhythm . Seems odd you’re trying to flex on someone who’s super inexperienced and had to overcome a bunch of adversity just to even get on the court. It’s not really surprising to see him struggle a bit after what he’s been through.

I mean twice 30 points or more per game per season, holy smoke, are you that dumb.

I think you're thinking of Mike James.

The Knicks are looking at Mike James.

Hope this helps.

I have no idea which one you were thinking of but the joke was ripe...

Oh crap!

It did seem like he'd be older by now, but I figured he'd be in his 30s, not 40s

This guy played on three NBA teams in his one season. Now that's a journeyman

Has anyone done a scouting report on the new Mike James

I know what you meant. Make a list of players who eclipsed 30ppg over a full season over the last 30 years and see yourself what he actually does (outside of winning multiple championships).

Kerr talks too much.

He sure likes to hear the sound of his own voice.

Watch on YouTube

(Notice whose team he went off on, if you don’t see him, you can hear him screaming :lol:

)

It also seem he works out with NBA players so he’s a known quantity in the nba world.

Watch on YouTube

He is a star in Euroleague but has a horrible attitude. It’s why he can’t stick no where he gets into with coaches and FO. It seems like it is just considered a foregone conclusion that he will be bought out of his CSKA deal because the relationship has become that toxic. The Knicks might see him as a FVV type player. The talent definitely seems to be there. Short term might be worth it if the rumors are true of him coming to NY is true, we can use the help in our playoff push.
