We're going to make a lot of guys look like MVPs this year against us. Year in year out its the same thing.

Man the season hasn't even started and it feels like February.

Y'all see Embiid against the Nets?

Dude is a monster for real. Tier 1 big man. And his passing will definitely be Gasol like.

Meanwhile Porzingis can't squat properly. Squatting has always been the worst excercise for a lot of people so I'm not shocked.

To be fair one of the reasons KP may be dinged up already is he did Eurobasket after the knicks asked him to rest and focus on conditioning only.

:yeshrug:

Also Embiid always been a monster dude just can't stay healthy

DSJ real, its gonna be nights he look like Baby Rose and we gonna regret not taking him

But for the long term I'm confident Ntilikina will become a better player

everyone looks at dennis and says he has a little bit of derrick rose and westbrook in him

cause george hill is a 6'5 player with a 7 foot wingspan that played professionally when he was 17-18 years old
:mjlol: posing the question "who does someone remind you of?" meaning something in respect to someone being a good player or not is trash logic

I'm not concerned about his hip or whatever it is this time, his form coming back up from squats is horrible. And that may be because he's 7'3, but I'm guessing it's because he wasn't in the weight room a lot before coming to the NBA. Or rather did compound excercises.

He looked great in EuroBasket, but they also moved the pace with purpose. Where as we push the pace and stand around afterwards.

That't not a bad comparison. Like you said Hill is an intelligent PG who defends, makes smart basketball decisions, and has a sound offensive game. Also, like Ntilikina he has plus size for a guard at 6'3 with a 6'9 wingspan.

The only thing is that I think Frank has untapped athletic potential, and he's even longer at 6'5 and has a 7'1 wingspan, that's length that goes up against the likes of Penny Hardaway. I want Ntilikina to basically turn into our French Freak. :manny:

Give us 18/6/7 with massive impact on the defensive side in his prime.

who did you compare kawhi leonard to the first time you saw him?
no im not saying he'll be at that level...but to see a player now and view him locked into one box of a solid role player is garbage
warped logic.
