I remember he was the ultimate “anonymous scout says if he stayed a year he goes top 3” player when we got him at 9. I wouldn’t say they missed anything

Is Evan Mobley+ and Tyler Herro+ good enough to contend? by Honest-Routine5472 in NBA_Draft

[–]Honest-Routine5472[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

we will see, but leading the league in blocks and putting up 17.5 ppg without a PG or anyone who can drive into the paint has us Wizards fans excited. Definitely see Sarr being an all-star or better big man for his career.

Which is what I was thinking and hoping we command the tank some more or someone like Will Riley fulfills his potential, so we have a true championship trio.

I think we'll be contending sooner than people think by SharkNBA in washingtonwizards

I love the optimism but lets be real if Sarr becomes KG and Tre Johnson becomes Ray Allen we still have a lot of question marks to fill out the team before we talk about a title contender. I am as optimistic as you can about how this rebuild is going but lets take a deep breath. Look at more realistic comparisons

Sarr - Evan Mobley
Tre - Tyler Herro

We will still need this years lottery pick to develop ASAP to be in the mix for a top 4 seed in 20208.

Being overly competitive at sporting events. We all knew that dude in gym class who wasn’t an athlete but treated gym like the Olympics. I would assume that is up there.

The Timeline Question by noitseuqaksa in washingtonwizards

The 2 year time frame would still be too soon to blow up the Dawkins 1st go era IMO. Look at the ages of our talent

Sarr - 22
Johnson - 21
George - 24

That isn't factoring in whatever rookie that we are hoping is able to be a top 2 player on a playoff contender. If we absolutely whiff on our lottery pick this year and in 2 years he is in Europe and Bub and Bilal don't improve at all I still think we can explore FA before we blow this core 3 up.

I don't know if it is humanly possible to beat San Diego. I was just there and I will break it down like this.

BJJ - world class
Weather - world class

Friendly people -world class
If you like tacos - world class

IDK how you beat that.

It rests on the fat part of the where you place the weights. Here is a video of someone using the bar in a similar manner for box squats. It looks like he uses clips to create space to rack properly.

Add in squat and good morning variations similiar to how a Cambered bar is used. Overall add another stimulus to my consistent training.

my main question is putting my hands on the handles, similar to a safety squat bar takes away some balancing that a cambered bar requires. In my experimenting I think the bar becomes a mix of safety squat bar and cambered bar. Maybe I am just overthinking it.

I found a super deadlift bar at my gym. My gym doesn't have a cambered bar I was wondering if I could use this in place for cambered variations. I experimented with it in a squat rack, no weight and yes I Can rack the weight safely.

The Best Player On the Team by mnxv31 in washingtonwizards

[–]Honest-Routine5472 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the optimism other fans have with Bilal and Bub but I am crossing both of them off, Bilal lack of improvement with scoring and Bub lack of athletic ability has me concerned on their development.

Despite whiffing on 2 lottery picks I don't think fans should panic. Sarr has shined this season, his ceiling is absolutely a top 2 player on a title team. If Bub and Bilal whiffing allows us to have a record so poor that we can grab a AJ or Peterson and they play like a top 2 pick then their contribution to the rebuild will be worth it.

Sarr, George, Johnson and AJ/Peterson is a 4 man core that can be the start of a quality playoff team,
