I like his talent but I don't see a superstar. I see a good player however...Especially considering where he was drafted...I think he will get better but I don't see his ceiling as being much higher than it is now.
I'll name this offseason thread later: The NBA 2019 Offseason/Free Agency Thread

I like his talent but I don't see a superstar. I see a good player however...Especially considering where he was drafted...I think he will get better but I don't see his ceiling as being much higher than it is now.
Never said he'd be a supertsar he will be a year to year all star and thats at least as much as Jimmy Butler who is now declining...
I see him as a 22/10/5 guy in his prime which hes now entering,im probably more optimistic then you but i have watched him more than you and can see hes literally a face up/jab step jumper away from being unguardable offensively...
He put up 32 on Dray in game 1 of the finals and 26/10 in the clincher those were not accidents...small forwards cannot guard him close to the basket and bigger guys will get killed off the dribble...
I also believe highly in his work ethic...
I mean I could see him being one of those career near allstar types not saying they play a like or anything but kind of how David West was...Very successful and useful player.
I really didn't like Indy offseason like that. For meBest Offseason of 2019 (Top 5)
1. Brooklyn Nets
2. LA Clippers
3. Indiana Pacers
4. Utah Jazz
5. LA Lakers
This is one of the wildest offseasons I've ever seen, though
1a. Lakers - AD and role players
1b. Clippers - Klaw and PG
3. Nets - if KD healthy #1, but he is not.
4. Utah - they got better in all of their weaknesses. A lot better without getting worse.
5a. Pels - they solved a lot of issues and got even more talented. Elite offseason
5b. Kings - I love their offseason. Solved a lot of issues. Got a great fit with Dedmon. Added wing depth. They really improved their depth and got a center who fit. Should be a playoff team in 2020.
Bonus- Hawks and Grizzlies- Hawks added a quality backup PF in Jabari Parker and added two legit studs wings in Hunter and Reddish. Got a center of the future in Fernando. Really solved some of the depth issues and added to their elite young core.
Grizzlies got an ace with JJJ in Morant, got a great fit in Clarke and just even out their roster. Those two improved a lot. They got a core now. Watch out Western conference.
Inb4 Sixers spill some late offseason beans about how toxic Jimmy came off as in the locker room.

That’s character stuff tho, as a ball player he’s better than siakim
I agree , I was glad the bulls traded him cuz he’s injury prone,not good enough to lead you to a conference finals let alone a championship and I think he’s maxed out. there’s not another level to his game like we just saw with kahwi
But right now you gassin siakim he has to show more to be compared to jimmy
Russ/Harden/Gordon/Tucker/Capela with Iggy/Rivers/Chandler coming off the bench is a nice 8 man rotation. They can make some noise
IM speaking truth,we know what Jimmy is,Siakam we dont know what he will be yet,i believe still has another step to take and i think were gonna see it this year with him being the 1st option...i believe in a guy who went from bench to near all star in a season,hes motivated and has a work ethic i trust in that...Jimmy at this point just wants to wear flamingo print shorts and hit the beach after games and be paid...
Ill rock with pascal cuz hes 6 years younger with something to prove.

Jimmy pretty much started off the same way as Siakam.....once he got the most improve players, his game got bigger
Well guess they will be taking him into the season than...because dude aint about to leave no money on the table and i predict he won't play much.
