WTF WTF!!!! Was trying to refer to the Twitter post about Stone pursuing a second round pic. Geeez, I'm getting old
No on Mitchell. He's not worth more than the minimum as roster filler. Yes on Hartenstein definitely.
The draw back is the contract that comes with each player and we have to guarantee spots for each on a roster for years to come.
Ok, have made a few alterations to my mock offseason: Trade 1 Houston out: Wood, Mathews, Tate and #17 Houston in: Oubre, Walker, #11 & Dallas' 2023 FRP Charlotte out: Oubre, Washington, and #15 Charlotte in: Wood, Mathews, and #17 New York out: Walker, #11 and Dallas' 2023 FRP New York in: Washington, Tate, and #15 Draft #3 - Paolo Banchero #11 - Tari Eason Acquired second rounder: Yannick Nzosa Roster 1.

Turkish MVP....scoring 19 points a game...10 rebounds.... how many did Sengun average as a Rocket starter? pts?....rebs? Wembanana 9 pts.....5 rebs in 21/22. Good luck comparing him to Doncic. https://www.basketball-reference.com/international/players/victor-wembanyama-1.html Check out his playoff stint this year (21/22) 4 pts.....1.8 rebs......4 games That's a fact KingSamJack
I like Nzosa too, especially as a switchable 7 footer. But at 215 lbs (or less) just not seeing him as an Embiid stopper. Not sure there is such a thing, at any weight. https://www.thestepien.com/2019/02/25/yannick-nzosa-evolutionary-rim-protector/
For sure. But Sengun also isn’t a man yet. Given time I’m pretty confident he’s a 20/11/5 guy with decent defense. I know that wasn’t what y’all were discussing. Sorry for the derail
Yes, I was being told Wembanyama is going up against grown men and won't have any trouble adjusting to the NBA (grown men).....well 9 pts....5 rebs internationally doesn't say I'm ready to kick #$$ and take names in the NBA. Maybe after next season? Maybe he will.......maybe he won't?
