I know you said something like this the other night as well.....I was watching some of the highlights from this game, saw BG post up Jackson, and move him like a twig to score,I couldn't help but laugh....
Funny thing is Jared Dudley is quietly getting paid 8 mil on that squad and I don't he's even sniffed the floor yet. Suns organization is something else breh....
Guess he's playing the veteran role, helping brehs develop their shot and what not in practice....
@Gil Scott-Heroin What reason do you think that Giannis is a better defender at 22 than KD was at the same age, he seems to use his height & length on that side of the ball much better than Durant did at the same age despite them being roughly the same size. I'm assuming it's because he clearly had his older brother guiding him on the importance of working out, cause you see the trickle down from Giannis to his little brothers who also lift. For comparisons, KD at 22 looked like a WNBA player physically -

It's all about the inches
Whats this?
Edit: i know now. Is english his 1st language? I wonder if he wanted the media to read it .
Most probably because Durant came into the league with scoring/shooting as his bread and butter, and he could get by simply on that - as players do. Whereas Giannis was forced to work on other areas of his game because he didn't have that same ability. The Thunder never put Durant in a position to be that type of defender for them early on in his career, he was just simply relied on as the offensive anchor. Plus, Giannis benefits from the positionless state the league is now in too, where it's almost a necessity for a franchise player to fulfill multiple roles on a team.@Gil Scott-Heroin What reason do you think that Giannis is a better defender at 22 than KD was at the same age, he seems to use his height & length on that side of the ball much better than Durant did at the same age.

westbrook 2-11 9 points with 7 turnovers
It was only 6 points actually.
When was the last time a reigning MVP had more turnovers than points?
He's a finessing big. He Secured the bag.
I imagine he was brought in to play above the rim when Blake was on the bench and benefit from CP3 passes, but honestly he was best being fed the ball in transition and on the offensive glass at Carolina.
He struggled a little outside of the block if he couldn't use his athleticism.
The problem is he's pretty light in the britches to operate that way in the league and he isn't particularly long for his height (his wingspan is 4 inches lower than Giannis).

He’s gonna be the truth
That Hill signing was smart, still shocked at this franchise having a smart competent offseason.
Let Fox ease into the league and prepare him to start later in the season or next year. Hill being the ego less professional he is can settle into the 6th man role
