I never get tired of watching Malik out of sheer luck duck under MJ’s first head slap with greater velocity on it. Like a boxing move with his back turned.
He cooled off late, but DAMN... he went NBA Jam mode out there for awhile. He's waaaaay out of our range. Anywhere from $10-15m a year this summer depending on length of deal. Could see $10m a year with security or a shorter deal with $15m a year. I didn't think we'd get this from him, honestly. Going into the year there was such a wide range of what he would be. It's was either a microwave or buried. Currently he's a microwave strapped to a nuke going 300 MPH and being directed by Michael Bay after he does a line of coke.
Just as a bball fan its a treat to watch this guy on his streak right now. A lot of game with a lot of style. He's seriously balling right now.
I just love the patience he has, when he side stepped a defender and drilled a 3. He is so composed out there, he looks to be a dam good player
He was sensational tonight! Those first three quarters he couldn’t miss. Unreal highlight plays all night!
OK, can we start talking about strategies to offer this kid some kind of deal under the table, like... ASAP? Wow. He plays so well with Bron, always seems to be in that perfect spot to receive the pass from him. And that dunk 2:00 before the end of the game?
Wonderful game by Monk, it’s amazing to have that kind of firepower from your fourth or fifth or sixth option.
Now that he is breaking out, let's see how he can handle success playing in a LA. I hope the mentorship of Lebron and the vets can keep him on the right track, because he does have some serious game.
