Ivey is a step slow tonight and that is a good thing. Looks more in control. Form and balance on all of his shots are much better when he plays like this.
It is more about the bad defense with Duren. A big that doesn't play defense is useless. But even if he develops a shot I am going to go out on a limb and suggest he never averages 25 PPG for his career like Malone did. Even in this day of inflated offensive numbers.
People have now compared Duren to D12 and Karl Malone. I'm over here agreeing with Sam Vecenie who said Duren is DeAndre Jordan when he played with Lob City. Except Sam made that comp before the draft and we obviously know now that Duren isn't half the defender that peak Jordan was.
Guessing the woman that turns around is the one who called this expert witness. She doesn't look too happy her firearms expert just pointed a gun at the judge lol
Sarr is not a stretch 4. He shot 20% from three in OTE last year and 29% in Australia this year.
Risacher is OK but he doesn't sniff the top 5 in most normal drafts. I worry he has a small frame and wont be able to add muscle to play PF. Right now I would say he is more of a wing.
Sam Vecenie has Risacher #1. But he says he doesn't have a good first step and can't create his own shot. It seems odd taking a catch and shoot specialist as #1.
Wish I had watched the Rockets-Spurs game.
Victor blocked Sengun 5 times last night, which is just insane. But even more crazy? Sengum dominated the game and had 45 points.
The Rockets should build around Sengum.
Some kids broke into the new Clippers stadium that is under construction. They were kind enough to record it and post it on TikTok. The LAPD thanks them.
