@KuKhahil this, spot up shooting and rim passing my 3 big concerns with him coming out of college. For how easily he gets to the rim i think he's pretty bad at making good decisions at the rim
@MobHoops he will look better next to nba big men fs, but ultimately i think he's just a flawed player who has a really high ceiling but a floor in hell
@EverythingxKing this wasnt any reporting, they were talking hypotheticals where he took the QO - if he takes the Qo then he'd be fed up and wants out. It's just a clickbait engagment Out of Context quote
@RichardPrince_ i agree, but i dont think anyone's reported him being close to that - the tweet was just grabbing a random quote from the middle of a sentence for engagement.
@movedmypivot a lot of overracting to this offseason for sure, but just to devils advocate, I think a lot of that was him not getting in the way of the team than some brilliant GM moves. I think he probably has a really good cap guy, his scouting dept doesn't impress me, jury out on the rest
@therealwesd3 my 3 biggest gripes w/ okorie are rim finishing, rim passing, and c/s 3pt efficiency (his upper mechanics are great, lower is shaky imo). i dont know how he stacks w/ rookie/cbb Mitchell, but that has me worried about his fit on this team
@BillionPesos@_utilitysports I think they have a decent amount of good salaries - collins, and robinson both around those same salaries, joe, huerter, harris and prince for some smaller salaries. Maybe hard to land a 40m guy, but i dont think they're in the market for one of those at the TD
@_utilitysports while it's disapointing that they've swung and missed on so many guys (Murphy, Khawai, Kyrie, etc), i think this gives them the room they need to resign duren at a good number and keep them out of the tax one more year, and getting that wrapped up will be a load off
@LedgieSports idk where you think the defense is nba ready today, but the nba doesn't let you park in the paint for an entire possession, i think it's gonna need some work
@RichardPrince_ fine as can work in a pinch? sure - but there's a reason the lakers have been working so hard to get a good center and paid so much for one - next to the luka/cade style of guard, the big is one of the most important pieces.
@KuKhahil i think there's a reason a luka (who plays similarly to cade) is spending every offseason looking for a player like duren, and I dont think turner fills that need
