Bolmaro sucks.

As I said before, I think we'll grab a guy or two from other teams (who are waived) in August/September.

Balmaro has guaranteed money this year
They may keep him or trade him but they may not cut him

Just looked at the box score what a display of elite jazz shooting... Almost playoff level

He reminds me of Rubio in a lot of ways. Both are halfway decent defenders and make pretty passes but when they shoot cold it's impossible to watch. Bolmaro is 4" taller yet has a shorter wingspan than Ricky.

I thought Bolmaro was ~6'6" with Ricky at ~6'4". It's really hard to find good measurements in the NBA.

The website craftednba.com (first time I've seen it, might be a load of crap) has Bolmaro at 6'7" with a 6'8.5" wingspan and Ricky at 6'3" with 6'9" wingspan, so you are probably right. It's crazy that Donovan is at 6'1.25" with a 6'10" wingspan.

Google/ESPN/NBA.COM has Rubio listed as 6'2" but there may be other sites that have a different height.

You'd think DM would be a better defender having an unreal wingspan. I know it's not a set in stone thing but elite defenders like Kawhi or Smart have a crazy wingspan (exceptions: I know Jrue Holiday has a small wingspan but is a good defender).

It is funny how 2 people can watch a game and come away with a completely different perspective on a player. You came away thinking Bolmaro sucks and I came away thinking he has the skillset to be a really good role player for us. I like his overall game and even though he hasn't shot well his shot isn't broken. I can see him rounding into a solid shooter in the near future.

no, the funny part is anybody who can come to a conclusion about a player for good or for bad after one game. i'd say you're closer to being correct since you know, nba talent evaluators considered him worthy of a first round pick.
