I mean..guys..do we have our star?

[NAOS]

maybe Corbin did a few things that were good for Rudy? Maybe Rudy's grit and hunger are somehow partial products of last year's experience?

I'm reacting to Corbin hatred. It's tired. Things are working out well for several players, and I think the experience with Corbin's system has been a net positive for them. I'm glad we have Q, but yeah.

Prove (and I mean prove) otherwise. The safer bet is always to assume that successful people take something useful out of experience. In other words, it's okay for me to say the burden of proof is on you, not me.

Lol. Rich coming from your bitchy ***. You said he "gonna" to be our number one option which is just ****ing stupid.

He already takes the most shots for amount he played. Obviously this goes over your head because you don't have the mental capabilities to look at facts or do simple math.

I get your point, but first option doesn't necessarily mean "player who shoots the most"

Imo "first option" means go to player, or the player that you want to get the ball to first to let him decide what to do with the offense.

Hayward is our first option

Omg you are a dumbass. Go watch volleyball or something. This whole basketball thing is over your head.

NAOS, you're probably right about Corbin aiding Rudy's development. I do think Rudy should have played more minutes last year, however.

For me, Hayward isn't a true first option in one sense: he isn't a volume shooter; you can see his energy and efficiency dip when he doesn't have help creating and TAKING shots. Having a guy like Paul Millsap or Boris Diaw would really help him -- creative guys who will take shots they're supposed to take, pass when they're supposed to pass, takeover when they're supposed to takeover. Also, I think a guard who can put pressure on a set, half-court defense (put them into a bit of a scramble before Gordon gets the ball) would really help him.

Anyway, I guess I'm saying that Gordo can be the #1 option in a highly curated setting..... but I suppose this applies to everyone except the truly transcendent players.... and maybe even to them on many nights.

FWIW

Dude, just so you know, that poster used to be called The Black Swordsman. If you remember correctly, then that tells you all you need to know.

Also, Jamezz is hotttnickkk.

Just close the door on that ****.

also note: Jingles helped Hayward a lot by sharing the distribution load. If Jingles were a knockdown 3pt shooter, he'd be the jam to Hay's peanut butter.

We are going to need more than 1 start, but we def have 1. If Favor has a great summer, he could breakout next year as a legit star Haywards level.

Exum oozes potential, but I fear we are a long way off. Gobert has to do a lot of work this summer on his body, but also oozes potential to be more than just a defensive stopper.

We will need 3 stars, and we have 1.

 

[Harambe]

I think its safe to say Hayward is a first option at this point right?

He's getting there. He was blocked 6 times.. and that was without Davis around. If he can learn to lower that to 2-3, and average 24 a night, I'll be sold on his contract.

 

[Dumb Bloke]

The problem there is that Gobert was really good last year. The dumbass coach just didn't play him.

He was busy transforming Enes into the most dominant low post scorer in the game.

 

[Dumb Bloke]

Kanter gonna be first option eventually imo.

What you mean mate? He is the first option already imo. Most dominating low post scorer since Shaq tbh. Over 62% on post ups is insanity why isn't he used more?
