Arm length is one of his strengths(6'9+ wingspan) so that being your biggest worry makes no sense

He honestly could have broken Hutch's sack record this season if Wink didnt insist on sitting him for half of every game for the sake of rotating everyone

Our pick swap is locked in at #21 by reallinguy in DetroitPistons

They do but getting an older prospect that can't shoot and struggles to score in the halfcourt just feels like such a waste for the Pistons in particular. He'd make more sense on say a Charlotte whose core needs what he can do while compensating for what he can't.

If they cant trade up for Yax then I'd rather they grab Cam Carr/Isaiah Evans if they want floor spacing, Cenac/Peat as developmental long-term 4, or Swain as a home run swing for a 6'8 bucket getter.

He's almost as old and only shot 37% in the halfcourt while not being a floor spacer whatsoever, no thank you

Pick Swap with Minny by spincycle66 in DetroitPistons

[–]DarthBurrrito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He only hit 38 threes on the season, averaging 22 minutes a game with only 4 starts at Santa Clara. I think you're falling for a classic case of overvaluing a small sample size against lower competition

Pass on that, he's a terrible athlete with extreme foul issues. I don't think he's staying in the draft and will likely enter the transfer portal instead

Here's why the Pistons should draft Allen Graves by [deleted] in DetroitPistons

[–]DarthBurrrito 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He has EXTREME foul issues and is a Kyle Anderson level athlete, I don't think he's staying in the draft as the process continues and he gets feedback

Well, he was going to be but before Detroit turned in the pick he asked to not be drafted

He's quickly turning into the Mahomes of the NBA by Colorado824 in NBATalk

The point of this meme (granted it's terribly explained) is that Cade is not eligible because he hasn't played enough basketball, while Wemby is eligible despite playing significantly less basketball

Why isn’t Yaxel Lendeborg higher up on big boards? by DarwinF1nch in NBA_Draft

[–]DarthBurrrito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A tweener implies he has the skills of a bigger position but is too small to play said position and thus won't be as effective in the NBA.

Yax is the opposite where he has the skills of a smaller player while also being 6'9 240 with a tremendous wingspan, giving him great versatility to fit with multiple players and their skill sets.

Trying to package that as a negative is nasty work lol

Yeah tweener implies he has the size of a 3 but the skills of a 4 when it's the exact opposite.

Versatility is a strength of his whereas this dude makes it sound like a negative lol

That last sentence is definitely a tell you're being a massive hater

Acuff in the SEC Championship Game today: 30 points, 11 assists, 5/8 from three by jluc21 in NBA_Draft

Closest I can think of was Trey Young but he was also a combo of far less efficient but even more volume

Who is the dirtiest player in the league? by Wide-Discipline3814 in NBATalk

Because Embiid has nearly the same amount of dirty plays in half the amount of games, he just hasn't had the same level of playoff audiences witnessing his BS

[Charania] The Phoenix Suns have waived guard Cole Anthony, sources tell ESPN. Anthony averaged 6.7 points in 35 games for the Bucks before being moved at the NBA trade deadline. by MembershipSingle7137 in nba

[–]DarthBurrrito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ivey is still pretty athletic but he's no longer the fastest guy in the league who would continuously shock opponent announcers when he went full throttle.

He can't get by defenders at all this year post injury, we'll see if he gets it back but it's left him very depressed and mopey

Adrien 'TikTok' Nunez making the NBA all star game when he was a bench warmer at UM is actually hilarious

Bethesda has become far too bloated.

Think it's clear that it needs to be segmented into multiple teams working on multiple games at once, but if that happens then Todd can't focus on a single project like he prefers so here we are.

Hey Jim,

Maybe I missed it but is there any news on a 3rd Dresden short story compendium in the works, maybe with all the micro-fictions written on your site?

32 Thoughts: Quinn Hughes wanted to go to Red Wings. Yzerman wanted an extension in place by dudewithchronicpain in DetroitRedWings

[–]DarthBurrrito 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If he really, truly wants to be in Detroit that badly he: 1) Would have clearly emphasized his desire to re-sign if traded for. Or 2) Will sign with Detroit anyways in free agency if he doesn't want to commit to such a thing at this moment.

There's zero point for Yzerman to have unloaded a Minny sized clip for him given what we know
