    He looks more like Franklin the turtle.

    Rockets' Wemby odds keep getting better, now at 26.5%! Nets' pick + Rockets' pick!

    Wembanyama's size/skill combination makes him unlike any other #1 prospect maybe ever.

    If we are going to lose so be it, at least let Jabari get his shots up we need to be feeding him constantly- forget these 10 pt games. He needs to keep shooting!

    It’s been 6 games and I’m now resided to the fact that we’ll be a bottom 5 team again this year. We need to keep building; we should continue to be aggressive, aggregating talent and accumulating more assets.

    Won’t change anything as long as Silas remains the head coach. He has proven that no matter what squad is given to him, he cannot win.

    I gotta say Silas is the absolute best loser I have ever seen, this man does not even make things close. He has a gift for being the worst when he puts his mind to it. Some coaches atleast have certain positives, like great offense but poor defense or vice versa. Some coaches run really good plays, manage rotations well or atleast keeps his squad competitive. But Silas is bad at everything with the exception of losing. And he makes it clear to the world that he will not be challenged in losing. For that, Silas deserves some credit.

    Did you know that the #1 overall pick that landed the Lakers Magic Johnson was acquired from the New Orleans Jazz who gave up 2 first and a 2nd round pick for Gail Goodrich..

    You put 100 bucks on that parlay you're probably a millionaire.

    I can already feel the salt when us and Nets end up as bottom 2, but get picks 3&4 and leave us without Wemby or Scoot.

    Nobody is drawing double team for him to get open shot. There is no play to get him open. And there is no play for him to create for himself beside going iso. He showed he can post up on turnaround jump shot. I want to see him do that more often.

    Yeah but the icing on the cake is New Orleans will swap picks and take him courtesy of the AD trade!

    But then again, that would put Wemby & Zion in our OWN conference :(
