Bronny just doesn't have that skillset. If not for his name nobody would even be talking about him.

I'm a notoriously bad evaluator of CBB talent, but I would draft Jared McCain despite how "unathletic" he is.

Would stay away from Edey ... and hell no to Bronny. Dude is awful.

Colorado duo of da Silva in the first and KJ Simpson for me in the 2nd. Oh and Bronny is a scrub. Stop hyping him up cause of his name.

Get ready for some "Daddy ball" when it comes to Bronny in the league.

I just wanna keep reminding you guys Spo benched Meyers and Olynyk for Crowder

Well sure, Crowder was a much better overall player. Meyers Leonard started 95 regular season games in his career and 49 of those starts were in Miami the bubble year.

Spo was starting Meyers for the beginning of the 1st and the 3rd then you didn't see him. Then when Crowder got here and settled Spo chose Crowder over Olynyk and Meyers. Spo wants his power forward to press the point. I am surprised he actually let Jovic start but it Martin gets the most minutes at the 4. I just don't trust Spo

I agree with you on this Twix and this is why I've been pumping someone like da Silva. I actually think he's more of a defensive PF that Spo prefers over Jovic tbh.

It's why I was mentioning Meyers guarding the bigs early on so Bam didn't get in foul trouble, it's not like he could guard most PFs all that well. Point being, Meyers had some of the right attributes you'd want next to Bam but he just wasn't all that good.

I wouldn't be surprised if Butler had something to do with Jovic going away from center to PF after having to deal with nearly the same situation in Chicago for Niko Mirotic, Chicago had him bulk up/gain wait to play the 5 more and it took away some of his quickness and agility and lessened him as a player for a few years. He went from coming in 2nd for ROY to not really getting better as he learned to play differently with more weight.

I truly hate that broadcaster will interview someone during mid game. You got halftime, pregame and timeouts for that. We came to see the players not a nonplayer interview

You’d think if Cody Williams was still on the board at #15, we’d take a long look. Particularly with the impending FA of Caleb (gone) and Highsmith (stay, go, idc)
