    Zach Edey? You're high on Zach Edey? You think we'd be better if we had Zach Edey on the team?

    Don't sleep on Zach Edey. He will have a very long productive career and I think he'll make 1-2 all-star teams before it's said and done, assuming he stays healthy. The guy is a proven winner and is willing to put in the work. Given his skill, talent, and drive ...I think he'll have a very long NBA career. He just needs a need that utilizes him correctly and he'll be a beast.

    Edey will be way better than Bruno Fernando. ...but (probably) not as good as Alp.

    Edey in the same sentence as Alpi in terms of comparing the two players gives you an instant loss of all your creditability. But I think you know that are are just trolling (hopefully).

    The "Use is the same sentence" trope is just that, it's a meaningless trope.

    How about you actually look at what I said and consider that context in which it was said. Things must be graded on a scale, not in simplistic binary terms ...as you have done.

    I like Edey a lot, but he screams “good not great.” The NBA is flush with incredible current and ascending center talent - Joker, Wemby, Sengun, Chet, Duren, AD, Zubach, Sarr, Bam, etc. I could obviously be wrong, but I sincerely doubt Edey will ever come close to being an All Star.

    The absolutely only way Edey is ever better than Sengun is because of injuries.

    Edey is skilled but will never have the dexterity and speed to be better than Sengun.

    I guess compare them all you want though !

    I will always remember people defending that choice and how frustrating it was to see the incompetence of Silas.

    I literally said Edey is not as good as Sengun. By doing so, I compared them? Reading, it's FUNdamental.

    Your issue was that I used them both in a sentence, which ironically, now you did too? lol.

    Great call, Stephen. Although, I did look Bruno up and he racked up 4 points and 4 huge boards for Partizan today. Baller.

    My bad. I thought it said he “probably” would not. And not “not”.


    I apologize again for not knowing how to read well and comprehend subjects.
