Who's ready for Sengun to be the best player in the game again?

right, and your human too. so complaining about things when there's evidence to suggest that the front office is more well equipped to draft than people in this forum is just a waste of time.

I 100% agree about Champagnie. He is going to be really good. I also really like Johnson. Toronto is doing a big experiment and that is cool. Having all this length and quickness will clog up opposing team's offenses. Especially in Nurse's zone defense this length will be fun. I just think that defense is tough for fans and players to get excited about. High powered offenses really defined the last playoffs.

Cade should be in the same role as a Doncic. Not off ball.

You’re really gonna judge based on 2 summer league games for Cooper and only 1 game for Banton. It’s Summer league ffs.

Do you know how many guys sucked in summer league and turned out great? And how many guys looked amazing in summer league and literally did nothing in the nba?

Banton is a project, that’s been known. Idk why you’re saying he can’t play in the nba after 1 summer league game

Banton's going to feast on the second unit or the 905 for a good portion of the year. He's more of a long term player that if he gets a shot, turns into very decent player. He's still going to destroy second unit guys through with his length/size/speed.

I just don't see much In Banton its cool if you guys are huge fans....On draft night i was not a fan of the pick much and the 1st game i was proved right....He doesn't have a jumpshot and he turns the ball over alot , Hes big yes but his size doesn't translate well cause he doesnt use his size to his advantage...

I like Cooper > Banton ....And you guys like Banton > Cooper its just a difference in opinion no need to be up in arms about it lol

Cade looks noticeably larger than green. If Cade is only 6'6 how small is green?

Sengun is legit. Great instincts. Not a stiff on his feet.

Green with some poor instincts, silly turnovers. That last one was completely unforced.

Quick hot takes
Sengun can play. Having that pro experience is huge

Cade isn't huge. About the same size as green. Not a body that stands out like Barnes.

Pistons players showing the leap from 1st to 2nd year is huge.
