2021/22 NBA Season Thread

[O.G.]

It's hard to judge young players under Thibs. He tends to favor his vets more.

 

[Dwayne]

True but you know skill in players has dropped in favor of athleticism and flashy mixes on ballislife

This is the biggest lie that will be told In this thread

 

[O.G.]

Fundamentals have dropped not skilled. Players play more now using athleticism over fundamentals, which leads to highlights.

I know. Just had to step in real quick before you and Dwayne go all day debating about some shit we don't really care about right now.

Fuck that. I’m calling niggas out on their lies

Obi toppin might not even get really good until he’s like 26-27

No the problem is he's stuck as a second unit guy under Thibs while Randle has a major advantage in usage. With Obi I don't think he'll ever achieve his true potential being here.

i like the kid and he's improved a good amount defensively but, I'll never understand why taking him if you had no intentions on trading Randle. Obviously Randle exploded and they'd look crazy trading him last year. Just gotta see if either they learn to play together more nullifying any minutes issues anyway or not

Well I was speaking from the angle he might be a late bloomer like a billups or lowry but yeah him getting the mins he’s getting isnt doing him favors either

i don’t really know if I can say with mins he would be good because he’s hardly had time to show flashes
