I have to say that Dosunmu and Simonovic seem to have the skill level required to hang on at least to the back of the rotation. Good minutes so far.

Baxter damn.

OMFG can Troy Baxter jump.

That was a bitter wine face goaltend.

Baxter is Tyrus Thomas level hops.

Siminovic is looking like our best drafted player out there :lol:

Yeah, I like Shittu better than Spellman so far.

Way too many commercial breaks. I got used to the smooth Olympics telecasts

They do look like usable pieces for sure

In his defense, he's been a pro the longest so he should look the best.

However, PWill is clearly the best player on the court.

It's amazing what one trip to the Olympics does for a reputation.

I take back my last statement. PWill has turned it on finally lol he looks really uncomfortable early on. But the aggressive play is connecting.

Williams looking good.

Grodoboldo · Post #54 » by **Grodoboldo** » Mon Aug 9, 2021 7:52 pm

Simonovic moves better than I thought, he might play some minutes at the 4. And Ayo seems fine as a 3 on defense, at least against not so big wings.

BigUps · Post #55 » by **BigUps** » Mon Aug 9, 2021 7:53 pm

Marko's defense is bad so far. He's Lauri stiff out there on defense. No lift on block attempts either.

Lewia Jr is good! Hope he plays more for the Pels this year. I really like him and NAW.

I think we’ll be seeing a lot of 3 guard lineups this year with all of Lonzo, Caruso & Ayo guarding some 3s.

I need Baxter on this roster just for his energy.

Patrick as a SF looking more comfortable.

Your preaching to the choir... but yeah, it was the Olympics that got it noticed.

Ayo looks a mess out there right now

I think he needs to calm down and pace himself.
