I'm still going with Suns Boris Diaw. Seems like a high IQ guy, good stroke, those flip/hook shots around the rim, solid defender, underrated passer.
I liked Diaw before he got fat, then I loved him, it's like cholesterol increased his Bball IQ tremendously lol
Them Europeans just get it in their head. I think it's just the crazy competitive nature there. I remember wed be always playing with older kids in their teens when i was 8 and living in Greece lol.
Kuzma has been asked a few time and has agreed that he prefers the NBA 3 instead of the college 3 because he knows he's forced to use more legs on the shot and is conscious about having to use those legs which has helps make more from distance.
I liked seeing Robert Horry jump on his jump shots. Kyle ... hope hope hope .... winds up being another valuable 6'9"-6'10" forward in that mold in the future for us. Is he starting his pro career with possibly more wrinkles to his offensive game than Rob? Just asking. Speaking of jumping on jump shots it seemed odd and "questionable" to me, as far as his ultimate game going forward in the NBA, for a shoot first combo type guard like DAR to seemingly be too cool to have to jump on his shots. That is an advantage, right? Given up long ago because why? I know I know .... not hurting James Harden's game..... right? Then again James Harden will never hit the kinds of shots Kobe Bryant or Robert Horry hit once they had jumped well into the air to shoot them. See Kendall Marshall as well.
Kuz works so well with Lonzo. Solid rebounding and defensive performance tonight, and overall high bball iq guy. Didn't shoot as well as Monday, but impactful nonetheless.
Yeah another solid game in the bag.. Everyones in a do or die so players are going hard.. Arrow creeped up a hair.
Haha. All good, we get what you mean... I think the key is he seems to have the ceiling possibly of all those good/great F's. Great small ball 4 off the bench in the making. Randle and Nance are on alert.
I like this guy, he has a good feel for the game. With Lonzo, Ingram, and Kuzma, we have 3 skilled young players who have a good feel for game. I'm slightly more optimistic than I've been in a while.
Agreed, except Kyle plays like he actually gives a damn. Not like he's thinking about his espresso and baguette break at halftime.
I like that he and Ball seem to already be so in sync after only a few summer league games. Kuzma is running the floor hard immediately after rebounds and Ball is finding him, he cuts to the hoop well, and he knows where to be on the 3 point line for Ball to get him the pass for an open shot. I don't know how much they'll actually play together in the regular season, but for now they're working great together, making eachothers lives easier out there.
I bet when they got drafted they had a convo and it finished with a "lets get it". Except the culture and players we brought in are taking that literal. Idgaf what anyone says but the Magic factor helps. To what degree? I dont know. But it helps. Rob to me is a modern new age GM with great player relations, has a calm demeanor suprisingly being an ex player and being good looking lol... But he handles the negotiations,phone calls,salary etc. Effing love this ying and the yang combo we have running the SHOW........TIME SNITCHES. lol. :JuliusPumped 1:
