JJJ doesn’t need that kind of mentoring...

They brought Noah in because we needed backup C help. JJJ works as the 5 in most matchups, but the rebounding is a struggle. I think Noah will come in to help in that way. I don’t expect him to get a ton of mins (at least I hope not)
 
Reading too much into Luka struggling against the length and athleticism of Ingram and Kuzma tonight? Had to settle for a lot of fadeaways and tough pull ups.

This is why i'm still shocked by just how good of a player he will be (People are talking top 5 in the league one day). He's an Average Athlete, He's not really that quick with the ball in his hands, he's a good not "Great" playmaker & he's gonna have trouble consistently getting separation when important basketball is being played & teams are throwing long athletic defenders at him.

Granted he's a young player who will improve, but i can't think of one guy in the league who's an average athlete, average defender, Not an elite Playmaker/Shooter who is even in consideration for being a top 5 player.
 
I don't think he'll be a top 5 player. Ppl just think so because he's coming in so advanced

He has the mind for the game and the talent but you still need the physical gifts to get to the next level.

It'll be interesting to see how he adapts once opponents really know his tendencies and what he likes to do.
 
Why is there a JJJ mural in Brooklyn? Dude is from Plainfield NJ

It’s a photoshop.

Who said that he'll be a top 5 player?

Wait, what? The point is he is an elite playmaker and shooter for a rookie already.
 
Damn good for Anthony Bennett that he’s working to get back into the league instead of just being satisfied with that #1 pick money.
 
According To #ESPN stats he's in a class with Lebron & KD

Can you read? The stat was about JJJ, not Luka. And a youngest to do ____ stat doesn’t mean he’s the same caliber as them. It’s more giving props for a monster game last night. A game like that while being the youngest player in the league is impressive. If you look too far into it that’s your fault.
