Can't wait till Oladipo and Tucker are out, we can give full minutes to all the young guys: Wood, Tate, KPJ, KMJ etc. Have a beer, sit back, tank and have fun watching these guys develop in a rich man's version of the G-League.
Porter is as big as KJ, listed at 6'6, and much bigger than Dipo who is listed at same height as Porter, 6'4. Porter is a big dude.
Very impressive debut from KPJ. Glad KJ Martin played well too. We need Denver to get on a losing streak so Michael Malone can put MPJ in the dog house one more time so we can get him over here and build the OKC 2.0 in Houston (KPJ, MPJ, and Wood) lmao
I'm on board. But will need to commit to team defense, add more 3-D role players and sign much better defense minded coaches to assist Silas (if retained) because neither Porter, Wood or MPJ are elite defenders.
I agree. I think Tate and Nwaba for sure should be keepers and fill the rest of the roster spots with all dogs like you said more 3-D types. Also, I think KJ Martin has the tools to become elite on defense he just needs to calm him ass down on offense and take his time.
Nah man he should just spend this season on it. He hit Patton with a perfect lob, can’t wait to see Wood in that spot.
KPJ, Tate and Wood. Not a bad trio to build around for the future. Now let's hope Stone can get the right pieces!
He is like a young Harden but a raw version running around with Hardens playmaking skills. Just raw. He should spend another offseason honing those skills with Harden helping him sharpen of his skills even more.
Man, 20 yrs old, playing up top...KPj's already sooo smooth/makes it look easy....oozes talent. While there's plenty to work on, in many ways the dude is already the Truth. It's obvious.If he keeps it together, continues to grow on and off the court...he'll see MANY All Star games. He and Fox were by far the best players on the court. Kevin makes everyone around him better. I'm also mightily impressed with the postgame /interviews...attitude/personality. I'm not sure what I expected, but.. Just all around...really dig this kid.. He has "IT". For all you folks still trippin about the Harden trade.... I'm assuming this was part of it as there was some kind of under the table deal with Cleveland for Allen.
We’ve been starting g leaguers for years now, lol, pretending they weren’t. You wanna know why we didn’t win a championship. That’s the answer.
Never understood why they didn’t update his height... he’s 6’4 with no shoes and closer to ’6’6 with them.
KPJ played well. A double double is a good start. His 3 point shot isn't smooth, but it's not broke. He did make one without any assistance. I think he can make more jumpers if Wall passes the ball to him. Unfortunately, that's a big if right now with Wall's attitude. @ApacheWarrior @D-rock
I liked what I saw, "shake it; but don't break it!" With Porter, plays were run. He distributed. He scored. We still lost by a bunch. Won't blow up our tank. Keep giving the ball to Wall, not so much as to see him run the offensive scheme, as to get his body continued rehab vs live bodies. He has shown he can distribute the ball as he had a 44% (ast%) the last 7 years while with the Wiz. I'm not worried about that. I'm more worried about our tank. Also known as," top-4 protected." Kenyon went 1 x 1 on his 3-pointer(s). Good. 100% from 3 is better than 14% from 3. I'll take that with any sample size. Wood comes back and everyone will look tremendous. That's my fear.
Wall has to go, he’ll hinder KP development and/or confidence. still cool with harden and ppl are already chirping saying he’s the next best scoring or playmaking option.
