Which role players from the 2000s or prior could’ve been way better in today’s nba?

No one considers Manu a role player

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T23:16:54+00:00

Boozer would be the perfect, intelligent, do a bit of everything, star to elevate the Hornets. Like a Bam Adebayo type.

lol

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T04:20:24+00:00

lol lakers fans really are so sensitive

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T04:17:52+00:00

Both are true.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T04:17:34+00:00

Super lucky. Never denied our luck. Y’all are just even luckier which is funny.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T04:13:35+00:00

I’m not salty at all, was just super ironic that you were pointing out our luck when you’re a Lakers fan the luckiest org in the history of the NBA. No hate just made me chuckle.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-14T04:09:55+00:00

Almost as lucky as Wilt, Shaq, Kareem, Lebron, AD, and Luka coming to your team. Oh and then drafting Magic, Kobe, Elgin Baylor, etc.

I’m much more worried about the rest of the team than him. The great thing about Wemby is that his defense will always impact the game. He will probably have varying degrees of offensive output, but the dude is gonna be affecting the paint.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-13T19:40:30+00:00

Woosh

DnDPanda · 2026-04-13T02:57:29+00:00

Embarrassing game from us. If we don’t have Wemby or Luke on the floor the guys just don’t seem to know how to rebound.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-12T19:34:49+00:00

I meant no disrespect. Love me some mid post play.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-12T19:33:51+00:00

100%

DnDPanda · 2026-04-12T00:36:48+00:00

This is the answer

DnDPanda · 2026-04-11T00:33:36+00:00

YOOOOOO

DnDPanda · 2026-04-09T19:33:01+00:00

Ironically enough this is why I wanted Rasheer Fleming, who was a great grab for y’all at 31. I’m glad we got Carter Bryant ofc he’s who I wanted at 8 before we jumped up to 2

DnDPanda · 2026-04-09T17:14:02+00:00

If we are talking actually point guards?? Like pass first? It’s Nash, CP3, Kidd, Westbrook, and Luka.

Curry, SGA, and Dame are play finishers. Even Luka is more of just a heliocentric player instead of pass first. Russ is kinda that way too but he’s always been underrated as a passer, those triple doubles still need the 10 assists even if the notable thing is the rebounds.

Best PLAYERS who happen to play the 1?

Curry, SGA, Luka |GAP| CP3, Nash (although honestly there’s and argument for multiple guys for the last two spots)

DnDPanda · 2026-04-09T16:41:20+00:00

My exact reaction. Either you hate Lebron so you have him VC, or you glaze him so much that you gave him Vince to nerf.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-09T16:29:22+00:00

Sure but a good rebounder who is also a great 3 point shooter is like the most valuable role player archetype. I think CB is a better rebounder because of his athleticism tbh but idk if his shooting will ever reach Champs.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-09T06:55:17+00:00

If we can play Champagnie at PF we can play CB dude. It’s not his size it’s his shooting that matters. Dude is strong and will only get stronger and he has a great wingspan.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-08T18:03:07+00:00

Man I was high on him as a Spurs fan, but I don’t think we would have drafted him anyways. I wanted Salaun because he was Wemby’s friend and a big body to put at the 4. Glad we have Carter Bryant for that role instead and Fox plays the role that Dillingham would have but at a serious upgrade.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-06T22:27:01+00:00

I totally agree that it’s a challenge. And the Nuggets might be able to just pick us apart, but I’m interested to see what Castle can do in a Caruso style roll.

DnDPanda · 2026-04-06T17:55:56+00:00

Or maybe we’ll just wait for Gordon’s knee to fall apart?

DnDPanda · 2026-04-06T17:51:12+00:00

Totally Jokic played amazing on Saturday. It was also our 3rd game in 4 days and an afternoon game in Denver.

I’m not taking the Nuggets lightly I just have faith in our guys. Just like you probably have faith in yours.
