This is too good to pass up–The Onion roasts Draymond with this headline:
‘If WNBA Players Want To Get Paid, They Should Just Hitch Themselves To Once-In-A-Lifetime Shooters’
Sneaking it in with the thin pretext that DrayDray IS, technically, a former Michigan player of a sort.
Caris LeVert had a nice 34 point game on 14/20 shooting in an important win over the Grizzlies to stay within a game of the 8th place Knicks.
He is insanely talented. Could end up being one of our best UM guys in the pros of all time. Just needs his body to cooperate.
Best UM player in the nba right now, by a mile.
It’s obviously random at this point, but his true shooting this year is 51% (not that great), and it’s 68% against Memphis in 3 games. Maybe he’s like a bull but instead of red it’s powder blue.
Hmm…I would agree that he’s got the highest ceiling. I think THJ might have something to say about that. I think if Levert can stay healthy and get his 3pt shot up to league average he’s a fringe all-star. THJ is who he is at this point - a solid NBA rotation player.
Yeah in terms of effectiveness, I think Robinson and Hardaway are the “best”. Levert is the one guy who can get his own shot and shots for others (Poole showing some life here now)…but those shots need to go down a bit more.
Poole and Curry with a combined 51 points after 3 quarters tonight.
For reference, Curry and I currently have a combined 48
Not a great game from Poole but he did have this near poster of Javale McGee (shot was blocked but ended up going in nonetheless).
(I think maybe this qualifies for this thread?)
Call me crazy but I think Chaundee Brown is on an nba roster in five years. The guy has what it takes to stick some where. He needs to improve off the ball on defense but he has the raw tools to turn into a nice three and d guy imo.
I don’t think it’s that crazy. He is already top-75 on draft boards. If he goes nuts in Summer League or drops 18 a night in Tel Aviv the path is quite clear.
Celtics signed Jabari Parker and cut Moe
Poor Mo got waived by the Celtics it appears. I hope he finds success with a new landing spot somewhere.
Jabari Parker’s corpse is still playing basketball…andoe got cut for him? Yikes…
Sorry to see that, though Mo got significant run in last nights Lakers-C’s game where the reserves almost blew a 27-point lead in the 4th quarter. It certainly wasn’t Mo’s fault entirely, more like 5-7 guys all playing terrible against the other teams backups. He’s got to find a role playing like a Max Clima (Mavs) for a perimeter oriented team.
You talking about Maxi Kleber lol? That’s not Moe’s game at all. Maxi is a really good defender at the 4 position
Moe’s size and offense + Franz’s lateral mobility and defense
Yeah Kleber. I mean Mo needs to improve his defense, to get regular minutes. Kleber shoots 3’s at a decent clip too.
