Best thing about him. He plays with an EDGE.
We need that badly.
I doubt Coby is feeling good after today however. Today's moved are frankly a direct inditement on how far short coby fell last year. Two significant 4 year contracts for the other guard spot. Add in the Ayo pick and I'm struggling to visualize Cobys place on this team. My feeling is AKME would love to salvage some value out of coby via trade if a taker was out there.
Adding Lonzo, Caruso, Ayo, and TBJ and drafting PWill last year....it's pretty clear AK/ME value two way players. So Coby better work hard on his defense once he can resume workouts. In the meantime he should be watching tape on his opponents. Learn their tendencies and favorite moves so he can react and not think. His matador defense isn't going to cut it with all that competition. You have to like our length in the back court. Ball is 6-6", Zach is 6-5", Caruso is 6-5", Ayo is 6-5" with a huge positive wingspan, and Coby is 6-5". Even Javonte Green is 6-4". Dotson is our only short guard at this point, and I doubt he even makes the roster. I expect Valentine to be gone. So we are stacked at guard. Tall and deep. And we have some guys now who can defend at the point of attack.
