    Good to see BI taking Magic seriously and sweating all that excess weight off with the hoodie.

    The defender can't guard you if they can't see you when you turn sideways.

    man looking at that all rookie team (not counting embiid)....I hope this draft class isn't as bad as the Chandler/Brown draft class.

    Saric is legit, but Brogdon and Hernangomez I'm really uninspired by. Props to Brogdon for being productive as a rookie, but he's just not that talented. Honestly I think many 2nd teamers have better careers than the 1st teamers. I like Brown, Ingram, and Murray more than Saric for instance. I'm not sure Embiid lasts.

    Hope Embiid is around long enough for Lonzo to dunk on him

    Congrats kid. Pretty impressive considering his struggles for the first 50 games or so.

    Even through those struggles you can just see the flashes with Brandon.

    Then you see how Ingram played at the end of the season and you can see why Magic was quick to say the kid is untouchable.

    Best part about Ingram .... character! You need guys like him that will be fine as a 2nd, 3rd, or 4th option. Whatever helps the team win.

    Brandon has too much talent and length not to be successful. He needs to take a page out of the Kobe book and draw fouls. Too quick for PFs on switches, too lengthy for SFs... there's no reason why he can't draw 5 fouls and doesn't get 5 buckets to average 15+.

    Especially with Ball on the team... god be with us and give us on paper success to setup a good foundation for the future.

    Think Brandon's floor is Shawn Marion.

    His ceiling? Doesn't have one.

    Heh. Everyone has a ceiling. He's never going to be as good as a lot of names that come to mind.
