    Rookie Contract Power Rankings

    He definitely isn't just "starting" with any one kind of shot right now. lol. He's fully immersed in a long process of improvement on many different kinds of shots. He tried some **** in a SL game.

    Rookie Contract Power Rankings

    He should definitely try some **** in SL. I can't jive with a mindset that gets wound up over this kind of thing.

    Rookie Contract Power Rankings

    Thoughts and prayers requested

    The difference between stage 3 and stage 4 is pretty huge, right? "Stage 3" were the most hopeful words—to my ears—in this whole thread. Thinking about you lots, man.

    Clayton or Collier?

    It's really easy to find reels that demonstrate Collier's passing ability. He processes the game quickly and can make quick passes off the dribble (including skip passes). And it just so happens that the jazz are in very short supply of players who can do that stuff as well as Collier can...

    Gabriele Procida watch thread

    this season doesn't make sense for a few reasons, imo. Next year or the year after would be fine. He's in a good spot for his development anyway.
