Oh man
Lol at won’t be ROY takes. Dude has vision, IQ and makes good plays even when his shot isn’t falling. Team mates need to be better about getting him the ball during mismatches but he’s going to be good.
Yeah this sub is just going to be flooded with subpar Spurs highlights all season.
Holy fuck. Where he’s at with the passing at this age… this is better than Joker at the same age.
And the rim protection? I mean… if you are posting up on this guy… don’t even bother. And attacking the basket.
There are going to be SO many instances where guys are working him in the post or attack the rim when he steps in where the offensive player just re-sets the play and it eats time off the clock. It won’t show up on his averages, but his defence is going to be so impactful.
This is very premature but this is the first dude that made me think someone could average 40+ ppg for the season. I know he isn’t there or close to there but he has all these weird intangibles. Do I think Lebron maybe could have if he just gave up on his team? I think there was a chance for a few years.
I was expecting the next big pf/c. Nobody said anything about him being an even bigger Magic Johnson.
WTF is that first one
That pass also went straight in the shooters hand too, that was wild
oh fuck
I’m not saying he doesn’t need to try on defence, but there is no player in the league with a higher floor as a rim protector. Even if he’s playing as chill as can be, he’ll still make life HELL at the rim for anyone. His defensive ceiling is literally the GOAT and the gap would be similar to Steph’s atop the shooters list.
Honestly, the only part of his game that looking pretty raw is his shot-selection. He went 3/10 tonight, and several of those attempts were early, deep, unforced, walk-into threes that had no chance of going in. I know he’s still experimenting, but I think he’s hemorrhaging value playing away from the rim so much.
He can be 1-10 and still be a complete positive for the team, dude blocks so many passing lanes cause guys are scared of his long ass arms
Also, spurs needa throw the guy way more lobs. Seen Tre Jones miss some really easy passes
How the fuck is he real
He isn’t. Your custom player from NBA2K became sentient.
This dude has somehow exceeded my expectations. I’m scared y’all
Wtf. Just wtf. Every time I see his highlights the j lt reaction is just wtf
He’s in preseason nutmegging guys. Wtf. He’s much better than I expected and I expected a lot. Like, if he stays healthy, he has an all time mix of skill and natural gifts. All time.
