    There has been some talk that Paolo should slim down to 235 or so and I kind of agree. It would make him a 3-5 type of hub and cause matchup nightmares for most teams in the NBA. As far as Chet he isnt the fleetest of foot right now - he gets by because of his absurd length. He doesnt recover because of his foot speed and his switching onto NBA caliber wing players and guards is still a huge question mark for me. Its just a projection that he "should".

    Is Jabari Smith a rim protector?

    I agree with most of this, but I think Sengun has enough intangibles and skills to be a starter or key rotation piece on a great team, i don't think he is a guy that you draft around.

    I don't think he is, but he has length I am also thinking his defense might be a tad overrated, but he does have all the physical tools needed to be a plus defender.

    This is just not accurate. You keep on lying to try and denigrate Holmgren. Why? I have no idea.
    He has very quick hips, good lateral movement and elite length. Strength is his only weakness.
    Movement skills and leaping are strengths

    Life is kinda funny.

    Chet would achieve his biggest potential by gaining significant weight.

    Paolo would gain his biggest potential by losing a few pounds.

    Who's got the bigger determination? We'll see.

    So anything that can be considered a negative is denigrating?

    Are we not supposed to be discussing strengths and weaknesses, or just pumping up what they might become?

    He does not have quick hips or good lateral movement, and his scouting reports say that the one D-rock just posted said that.

    It literally says he has good movement lol
    Read my guy.

    His hip flip is elite, his makeup speed is elite.

    No scouting services agree with you.

    However they do agree Paolo is an average athlete

    Says the guy who thinks Holmgren has elite hip flip and is a comp for Garnet.

    Again for the illiterate. This is from scouts. Not me.
    His hip flip is elite, any “smart” person can see that.

    Is Paolo still Lebron?

    You’ve been proven wrong time and time again. Yes scouts. It’s literally quoted from scouts.

    Find one, find anyone that compares Paolo to Lebron.
    I know you get mad about the Julius Randle comp but it’s the main one.

    At least come up with some new material to try and bait me.

    It's sad that you are so starved for attention that you keep going to that same well to get me to interact with you.

    Sorry, but you are going to have to relieve yourself by other means.
