Almost this entire board fought me tooth and nail on Ware. I don't understand how they couldn't see the talent.

- Thread starter Saint Cy of JFC
- Start date
At least Miami has something to be excited about in their **** season.

Unlike some teams I know
Matas has been hooping lately. He is the guy that can be honest and say I would have taken him instead of Cody without hindsight 20/20. It would be so exciting to have him out there gunning away with the other young guys.
Cody is so boring, only value is as a tank commander but he’s not fun to watch. The ultimate do nothing player.

Yeah, it's a sad state. I've never seen a lottery pick with as few flashes as Cody has shown.
I wouldn’t care if he just sucked. I don’t mind when the young players are bad….just do something on the court. He has issues with his weight and skill level, but his extreme lack of motor just makes him so boring.
I'd recommend a little less jumping to conclusions about rookies.

zero assessment about Cody until early 27 I still believe
Not a lot of McCain hype in this thread. Props.

Fixed that for you.
He IS a glorified role player, though. But with the way the draft-industrial complex works, of course he's gonna go first.
Nobody has the balls to take risks. Sure, he may end up averaging 12/3/2 in the league, but at least nobody can blame you for picking him at #1. That's the most important thing.
He had a range of outcomes. The high end looks to be off the table for the time being. He can still be a Jaden McDaniels type defensive wing, but even that requires him to up his physical presence and confidence. The Jazz will probably give him until his 3rd year to put himself together, but he needs to get to work right now.
Cody does some things well, like he moves well defensively and usually makes good, quick decisions with the ball. The problem is that he's very limited in terms of how he can score right now, and he tends to disappear if he's not really involved in plays. The concern about his assertiveness is still valid.

The dude is barely out of the womb. Until he thickens up and puts on 10 kg u won’t even think about judging him.

He's 20. He needs to start showing some confidence right soon.
