Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
I watched the entire Magic/Bucks the other night(don't even ask me how) and I was completely surprised at how well he was playing. He was looking like Dragic light out there. Good passing, good midrange shot, good decision making. The only problem I had was his hesitance to shoot the 3. Maybe I just caught his best game of the season, but he looks promising.


Yeah, dude was putting up all sorts of floaters and getting to the rim :mindblown:


Nah, he's had several good games now since starting, and had some at the start of the season too. The knock on him is his shooting, which explains the reluctance to shoot the 3 but he knows that's his weak area and I guess he's been working on it. Dude can actually get to the rim, which is kind of surprising :russ: passing skills are top notch and he has the size to play the 2.

The Bucks have 4 promising young players in Wolters, Henson, Middleton and Giannis.

I liked what I saw from Wolters at North Dakota St when he played us in the tournament. He needs to hit the weight room.

I originally tuned in to watch Tobias Harris, Oladipo, Henson and Giannis, but I found myself just watching Wolters after he spoonfed Pachulia a few great passes in the 1st quarter. I'm definitely going to keep watching him play. And I heard the commentators mention his lack of outside shooting, but if that's the only knock against him then that can be fixed in the offseason. That ability to score at the rim is hard to develop. Ask Brandon Knight. Like I said, Dragic Lite in the making.

And I like Henson. Not so sure about Middleton though. Is he actually good?

Meanwhile, us Pistons fans have to endure "J-Smoove" hoisting 3s early into the shotclock :aicmon:

Dumars is gone, atleast this deadline has shown there are takers out there for Smith, the next GM will do the right thing and move him for a salary dump.

Yeah, I watch Bucks games for Henson and Giannis, and have been catching Wolters lately like :lupe: He came into the league as a PG, and with Knight being so wack at the point putting him out there with him makes a lot of sense. Like @Poitier said he should gain another 10lbs or so and play the 2 fulltime.

Middleton can score, his defense needs a lot of work though.

Brehs do the Sixers even have enough bodies on that squad. They tanking too damn hard to be rewarded with the #1 pick. :dead: at tanking for Aaron Gordon.
