DirtyDez Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 KD still looks great but he’s playing big minutes with the other injuries. You know where this is heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he always was a pretty good defender, so how does that impact his MIP potential? You cannot compare the jump numbers wise for Cam Thomas vs Brooks.

You know where this is heading. He's playing the same minutes as LeBron and ppl thought he was on a minutes limit. 36 minutes is pretty standard for the best player on a team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not going to be better than Jokic in 12 months. Hell, Chet Holmgren is the better player right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsoxsuck05 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) More box score observations: Scottie Barnes is currently rly the most improved player in the NBA right now. Guess his second year was just a sophomore slump like Tatum's was. LaMelo had the worst shooting stats in the league right now so I'm sure the hot takes are coming Edited November 6, 2023 by redsoxsuck05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cannot compare the jump numbers wise for Cam Thomas vs Brooks. its more downplaying the fact that there is more to just scoring the ball. Obviously both players wont continue this play but we all knew Thomas can score the ball and he dont offer anything else. Brooks offensive production is pretty surprising given his history on that end. Apparently he worked on his jump shot this offseason and the improvements is showing so far.

bigbadbuff Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 I had Portland +7.5 and they were up 12 with 8 minutes left and then Memphis goes on a 26-5 run after that and I lose lmfao. Impossible…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he gets a mental grasp for the league, he is going to be downright scary. He really locks in late, too, so you can see that killer instinct is there. His 4th quarter splits have been really impressive, but he seems to kind of sleep walk through 2 and 3. They go to him on the first possession, but then he goes kind of passive until the 4th, it seems. Once he is comfortable with being the man, and becomes more assertive throughout the majority of the night, the whole league is going to be on notice. I'd like to see them get a pg that keeps him engaged, or just go back to starting Tre. This pg by commitee with Sochan and Vassell, or whatever they're doing, can't be the longterm play. I don't know about him and Collins together for so many minutes, if Collins isn't knocking down shots away from the rim. Might be better off with Cedi starting, if they aren't going to start a traditional PG. Fun team to watch, with some interesting pieces to figure out how they fit together. They've been my main watch with the Wizards being so miserable for me to watch. I like Branham's shot creation ability as a 2nd unit scorer, too, and Vassell is really rounding out into a nice player. Vassell looks like a fringe all star. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if they start games better and playing better, it will go back down but 34-36 is going to be where it's at for both Bron and KD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mox Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 LA should not need LeBron to play as much as he does. It's going to end badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
