So he becomes better but not elite? So how will we rate okafor if he becomes better at those things, he won't be a completely different player than he was before? What do you mean?

I'm speaking in terms of being better at individual things. Not being an "elite" player overall.

He's not a finished product yet. At his base, he's a scoring low post center...with soft touch and good handles..a big strong frame and good scoring instincts. As he grows...he can become an average defender, better shooter, better passer and a better rebounder.

Most talented young guys improve on a few skills. That concept isn't hard to grasp. That won't make him a "completely different player". It would make him a more well rounded player.
 
you said he could be a better version of cousins, he would have to become an good defender, elite passer, rebounder to be as good as cousins, let alone to be a better version.

I said his "floor" could be a better version of Brook Lopez. I said he's a similar player to cousins. Never said he can be "better". If I said a better version of cousins...I misspoke. But I think he can make the same strides in improving as a shooter and defensively the same way cousins did. Simple.
 
one dribble from half court to a dunk

Still mad carl traded ray for peyton when he was in mil. Give dude an inch he will take a mile. Knows his stuff but believes his stuff is the only way. They are both to blame for that bs. Hate using them om 2k. No bs last 3 games Ive lost in the last minute. They got like some glitch to self destruct of somethin.

Yeah I understand stand , just couldn't understand how specific you were being when you mentioned how different of player he'd be overall.
 
For some reason I'm reminded of Shaun Livingstons potential.

But who remembers when people were claiming that Giannis wouldn't be good.

I remember when they drafted dude the writers were blasting the Bucks. Local reporters couldnt even find footage of him and when they did it was grainy as hell. Dude puts in work. Worst part of the nba imo is the ridiculous media coverage and compared to other leagues if somebody takes a little longer to develope or has a bad year theyre labeled a bust and all that. Then they have a good couple weeks and all of the sudden theyre the next goat.
 
It's going to be so awkward when the Nuggets put the best offer for Boogie to the Kings.
 
If Kidd brought in Monroe with the long term intent to tank the season and then bring him off the bench/trade him then that was a stroke of genius and I take back any slander I gave him for that move

I like kidd as a coach but his ego sometimes is his worst enemy. Jabari and moose might be the worst frontcourt d in the league. Like how plumlee has been playing
 
Moose gotta go. Plumlee plays better the starters...and doesn't need the rock. Rebounds, Defense and Athleticims with the young guys.

He runs the floor too. I am not a Jkidd fan as a coach. He's a fraud.
 
Yeah even if they would of got lopez instead that would of been better then moose. He just doesnt fit in at all at this point. When he gets the ball the majority of the time nobody runs cuts or anything offense just stops to get him his touches.
