Had 20 & 9 yesterday and I heard he's killing it now. Dude plays like amare without freakish level nice bounce but still pretty elite. I think he can do 15 & 10 his rookie year
I think he got better hops than Amare. I watched Amare rookie season highlights yesterday and was surprised how close they were in that area. But Amare had more size.

Amare had the quickest first step I've ever seen on a PF



His power & quickness was phenomenal

That first step tho.
Still think Collins hops and power is there or better but I don't know about that quickness. He's quick but Amare quickness has been proven to be GOAT level for a PF. All of them.

Yeah I think that's what separated Amare.

Quickness, hands, and finishing ability.

He was automatic inside the paint.

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
@Malta last offseason GarPax said they wanted to get 'younger & more athletic' and they drafted Valetine over Luwawu :skip:

fukk me man


I think Luwawu ended up in the right spot, if he's in Chicago more would be asked of him as a scorer which I don't think he's gonna be able to do. They just ask him to defend, shoot the three and cut off the ball in Philly.

He'd be nice next to Dunn/Lavine though. That's two potential defensive dogs surrounding Zach on the perimeter

Think they Should've took Mike James out of the game.


His old journeymen self took too many shots at the end of the game.

Would've just let Josh Jackson run point forward.

But yeah, Bender & Chriss look mediocre

Bender and Josh both were visibly frustrated with him today. Dude is a chucker.
