Uh, Steph has 23 points on 11 shots after 1 quarter.

Also it looks like it’s going to be extremely difficult to out tank the Cavs.

Zion to me looks like a swol young Barkley.

Well I’m glad I stayed until the end and at least saw that Frank-Mitch-Rob-Lob.

At the end of the day, this team is very bad and this season will not be easy to bear.

This is obvious, but Dotson needs all the minutes he can handle going forward. Had plenty of Heat fans asking me “who’s number 21?”

At least Frank now has a higher TS% than Burke!

It’s looking ugly.

Wake me up in 2025.

Frank’s ineptitude with the ball in his second season is not encouraging. It’s not just that he’s not productive, he also just looks completely clueless on offense, like he’d rather be doing anything else in the world than handling a basketball.

I don’t know about that guy. Great pick and roll defender, doesn’t do much else.

The Rockets pretty much suck without Chris Paul now that they lost some of their best defenders also.

Th Bucks are a player or two away from being very serious. They are already good though.

The 76ers took a step back without the vets they lost that spaced the floor for Simmons and Embiid and helped the bench.

The Knicks are terrible.

The best active two-way player may actually be Dotson and he’d be relatively deep on the bench of a really good team. #ThanksPhil

20 points
8/14 FGs
3/8 Threes
1/2 FTs
10 rebounds
2 assists

Frank was less horrible on offense (that’s not a compliment).

We have 2-6 potentially very good players on the team if you include Knox, Robinson, and Trier as unknowns because it’s too soon to tell and Frank as a project on offense. Other than that, it’s KP, Dotson, and Frank. Can we get Willy back?

NBADraft.net has his NBA comparison as Rodney Rodgers. For a top 3 pick to a team in desperate need of talent, that would be a tremendous bust. Please tell me they have no idea what they are talking about. That his game will translate against the best of the best in a modern half court offense.

They have his size rated as a 7. He’s 6’6″ and 280 lbs. and not fat. As my wife likes to reassure me, girth is no less important than length. They also have his post skills a 7. Have they watched any tape at all? He’s a bully in the post. Just because he doesn’t have a Carmelo-esque post skillset, he’s not rated higher. And we all know how much that matter.

That comparison is totally stupid. He plays like Barkley, full stop.
