cant see zu getting picked ahead of jokic, jjj, ad, wemby, sabonis, and sengun so far this year, but hes definitely giving all star level impact. only bigs who have been on the floor for more wins this season out of that group are jjj and sengun. the only ones out of that group with a better on/off this season than zubac +10.2 are jokic +21.3, wemby +14.7, and sabonis +11.0.

20pt 15reb games this season
jokic 12
sabonis 10
zubac 9
ad 8
wemby 4
sengun 3
jjj 0

Man Zu is turning into a upper echelon center in the league. Never thought I'd say that but here we are. Kawhi getting back to his old self. Norm looking all star-ish. Harden and DJJ ballin. Only weak link lately has been our bench. KPJ hot and cold. The Coffey is cold. Mann is a shell of his former self. Good win tho

some of the other flaws in his game wont change but it will make a difference if kpj gets back to being somewhat close to an average 3pt shooter. its never going to be a great bench but id like to see a run of games with kris dunn off the bench and see if it improves any. out of the top 20 most used 5 man lineups, 2 of them involve dunn/porter and at least one starter, one of them clips had a +10.3 net in 54 minutes and the other +9.4 in 20 minutes. clearly the new starting lineup with kawhi back and djj at the other forward is the optimum starting lineup, +48.6 net in 77 minutes this year.

Agreed.. Also the back up center position is a bust again. I knew Mo Bamba wasn't going to work out the way he's been bouncing around the league like he has. Might as well give Kai Jones another look if he's finally learned how to set a decent pick and can rebound. Can't burn Zu out with the rate Lue is playing him.

As @pete clemenza previously stated the Minnesota thing is worth keeping track of. There 6 games over .500 along with sweeping the season series. Amy is playing well and I’m sure Randle’s injury will allow them to fall into some sort of optimal lineup

Have to keep winning

Eagle, Colorado
Bamba, Tucker, 2nd round pick and cash for Drew Eubanks and Patty Mills.

:manny:

Nothing gained nothing lost.

Eubanks is serviceable and bangs/bruises more in the paint than Bamba. Patty Mills is probably done NBA wise and finally got rid of PJ and that's a good thing. Is Bamba close to being out of the league is the question. Teams acquire him hoping that they can flip his switch but it doesn't happen. Supposedly this this move could open up the door to get Lonzo or Ben Simmons in a buyout deal. We'll see.

Oh shyt I hadn't heard that. I guess Simmons isn't with klutch anymore right?
Not sure. Thinking we should pass on Simmons. He's not a mentally strong players. Rather have Ball to back up Harden.
