Roberson is an elite nba defender.He can't shoot(which is mental) lol @ duke being trash cuz of airballs he's on kawhi,tony allen levels of elite wing defense. -

They need Roberson, just dont know if they can continue to have him start.
Then again, having Roberson run with the second would destroy any chance of the bench scoring. Atleast you can have points coming from somewhere having him out there with westbrook, PG13, and Melo.
They need Roberson for sure they just gotta find more creative ways to use him.
Dude is way worse than Tony Allen offensively. -

Likes the moves y'all made this off-season, told multiple people I don't think y'all bottom of the barrel like the media made y'all out to be
Bruh you were sayin they would be bottom 4 in the east until that pick got traded to the cavs
I specifically remember YOU tellin me I was too high on the nets
You can pull up the off-season thread where I said Sean marks was making good moves since u think I'm lying that was before the trade too
This has nothin to do wit what I'm talkin bout.Honestly I don't care about this like that, to find the quotes and I'm not doubting you said that.I know for a fact you told me I'm too high on the nets -

Yea he needs to move without the ball,cut to the basket,crash the boards,get tip ins,oops,baseline cuts.
Roberson has never been an even below average shooter, but shot 41% from 3's in the playoffs he shot 58% ft's in college.He can make 1 out 2 ft's or hit an open 3, I definitely think it's mental at this point.
Last night pg was brickin all in crunch time(all his shots were short) cuz he was tired from having to switch between guarding jimmy and wiggins.They need roberson he's an elite defender the coach has to work with him on his shooting and utilize him in different ways.
If roberson can make okc the #2 rated defensive team with kanter on the floor that shows how much of a difference maker he is defensively.Especially wit russ no defense low iq ass out there too -
i dont know how good the nets are gonna be
but
their gm deserves consideration for executive of the year for at least making them a fun team to watch on league pass
one thing about their rebuild though
the atlantic division has an insane amount of young talent
in addition to
derozan
kyrie
embiid
kristaps
simmons
jaylen
saric
the atlantic division added like 4 of the top 7 players in this draft -
The tnunder need to emphasize defense. Offensively they will be good even though they still do alotvof 1 on 1.
There was times when the wolves put russ and melo in pick and roll situations and they scored nearly every time -
i cant wait till he gets stronger and finds that black barber in a couple years
hes gonna be dropping 28 on a nightly basis
after last seasons garbage performance by rookies this years class is off to a promising start
ball
dsj
tatum
fox
kuzma
markkanen
are all looking good -

Kuzma the only reason to watch the lakers.If he wasn't on that team I'd never watch them.
Peep game
Dunn
Lavine
Doncic
Markannan
Noel
Noel getting bushed in a contract year he's gonna bounce on the mavs unless they break him off.Whole line up 24 and younger noel and dunn can cover for any defensive issues doncic may have.Wit his elite playmaking ability everybody gonna eat -

doncic does seem to be a great fit with markkanen
thats why im keeping a close eye on lonzo this year
i think lonzo struggled against fox last year in the tournament because of fox athleticism and quickness and the nba is filled with athletics PGs
and on the low doncic is very similar to lonzo
he doesnt get the same critiques from experts for obvious reason but i find them somewhat comparable
so depending on how ball looks this year is how high im gonna be on doncic
