He is going to be very good for our team. It seems he is ready for this, mentally and physically. This is why I was so glad when we drafted him.
Black offers a different skillset. Zubac is cost controlled for the next 3 years. We can afford to keep both and evaluate where they are at next season. I think Zubac offers the higher ceiling and cheaper salary.
God I love this quote and it cracks me up. High-fiving everyone on both teams. We've got our next true center Guy and Gals. No wonder Mitch said no D-League for Zubac. Teams are going to be killing themselves for passing on him all the way to 32.
There you go .... has to be best quote of the night. :Headbang: Maybe. Just catching up here loving reading about him others' opinions confirming what I saw as well. But then I haven't even started with the quotes on Brandon freaking Ingram. Wow again. Mitch you crazy s o b. Well done FO!!
What's great is he's already been playing against full grown men in Europe even if most are the size of New Orleans' Summer League big men. Not tentative or nervous one bit out there.
He also rolled to the rim nicely and identified his man when the shot was up, looking to box out. Boxing out?!?! When was the last time we had a big do that?
I got so freaking excited about a Summer League game I ended up all night making files lol. About to pay the price, but that's how desperate fans are for decent basketball and good news.
Kid looks like an absolute steal. He had everything on full display last night. It was so refreshing to see a center who can not only defend but have an offensive game.
Aside from the sick blocks, i was so stoked to the the kid post up and score beautifully. He straight backed down and dislodged that big strong looking man boy (#50 iirc) with ease.
19 years old, I haven't been this excited since we drafted Bynum. Damn a big man project! My favorite thing in basketball.
