If he shoots like Lonzo did in college then he's at least a late lottery. I could see him being top-10 then. But I feel like there's a gap between where he is and that. He's got the tools to bridge it though so we'll see. I feel like his shot mechanics look pretty good but the release is a little low and little slow. That may or may not be a problem in college.

However, I can see this being one of those "Let's just try whatever, we're playing with house money" type games where the Bullshit can run supreme. Timberwolves lose by 20 or maybe they pull out a complete BS type win. It'd be nice to avoid the gentleman's sweep.

Dejan Bimble posted:All three games tonight could result in series ending wins Minnesota and Atlanta are both cooked imo, it would take a Butler-esque performance by Ant to keep them in it. Don't think either can pull it off on the road. The Suns have looked way shakier than I expected, if Russ keeps it up and the Clippers role players show up, I think they have the best chance to steal another. Likeliest outcome today is three finished series though.

Before the first round I put down Boston in 5 over ATL, Denver in 5 over MIN, and Phoenix in 6 over LAC. Looking at it now just before these do or die game fives, I think I expect the opposite of what I wrote down earlier. Not out of a gambler's defeatism, mind you. The Clippers seem cooked without Kawhi, a good squad that cant hold a candle to how many threats the Suns have. Norman Powell's 5yr/90m seemed like a lot but yeah, I guess he is worth that for a 20 minutes in the playoffs guard you can bump up to 30 minutes and hang in there. Let's see if Westbrook can find him open looks again. The Wolves believe in Anthony Edwards even if they don't believe in themselves. Jokic and Gordon need to get bullied out of the paint by Gobert and Towns, together. If Jokic can get drawn out to the perimeter, I believe Conley can keep pace or outshoot Murray and Porter, and that the Wolves have one more home game left in them. Quit letting the Nugs back in, punish the Nugs for resting Jokic for even a minute under 40. Atlanta is a wild card. They live and die by the three. Boston have clearly better starters and a slightly better bench, but I'm just marveling how guys like Okongwu and Bogdan Bogdanovic are so good and yet not enough to crack the 30 minute threshold of starters/sixth men.

Rick posted:It is wild that in general LeBron and AD don't take charges but have each taken a Ja attempt at murder via dunk so far. My theory is that he's so fast they don't even have time to make the business decision to get out of the way. i mean Morant weighs maybe 165lbs. Im pretty sure i could take a charge from him.

No, the point is when you have an opportunity to add Durant to your team, you do it.

Chet and Victor on the other hand look like someone pulled taffy too far apart and they are going to shatter their feet or ankles at least 2x in their career.

They池e gonna come out guns blazing. They play pretty much the same way on offense regardless, but coasting vs their Big Game mentality is visible on defense. They池e gonna fly around and kill the Wolves offense. I知 not concerned, I think the Minnesota win was pretty fluky. Conley痴 corner-bank-three was one of the wildest shots I致e ever seen.
