Suggs is better on defense than offense, and he could be elite offensively.

If Cole passed the ball every time he decides to shoot and shoot every time he decides to pass the ball he would be muuuuch better

Fantastic defense and passing. Wonder if Cole leaving the game has anything to do with it?

Nah, couldn't be. :lol:

Generally not an issue for my old school azz but yeah, these are not seasoned announcers.
And the improper speaking is a little annoying, but I'm probably one out of 100 people who might care about that. :)

I can’t be the only one who muted these two announcers before the first quarter was over?

Omg this is just false lmao. The confidence will come but his defense his IQ and awareness are very good


We are watching different games… But I appreciate your opinion… His inability to recognize situational offense at the end of the first half is about all I need to see—he will be a role player at best for his career…

Why? What did you expect from him? Superstar?

Timma and Suggs already showing much better chemistry and cohesion than Cole and Suggs. Shots really aren’t falling right now though.

There are a lot of things to like about Hampton, but defense is not one of them. He's really noticeably not very good on that end.

Wagners shot doesn't look right. It's a bit concerning.

Suggs will be making multiple all-defense teams barring injuries

As old as I am, I'm okay with Women doing everything Men do.
But they should NOT play with us on the same team.
Like, Women mixed with Men on the same team.
I mean, what happens when the Women start kicking Mens ass. hahah :D

No reason for an athlete like that to be that bad on defense. He's gotta get it fixed.

I think you can draw some more conclusions from summer league for the second year players. By that time Isaac played really well. Look at Okoru and all the Boston’s guys this should be easier. How Cole looks is extremely concerning
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.
