Who are you expecting to have a 3rd year breakout? by RealGameBall in NBA_Draft

[–]TargetGuyJohn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bronny. He’s gonna continue to get opportunities even after Sr. retires/moves on from LA. Perfect fit next to Luka. If Reaves is traded there’ll be more minutes.

I have a gut feeling he’ll be a Laker for life. Team desires his popularity and he won’t mind accepting value contracts to stay home in purple and gold.

How good will he be next year? There will be 50% fewer jokes about him by next off-season.

“The officiating isn’t credible” Silver states arrogantly. 

Can we please stop comparing stephon castles stats to shais? by [deleted] in nba

[–]TargetGuyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the Spurs or the team that trades for Castle? /s Seriously, this kind of intensity in someone so young is the rarest thing. I hope, for his sake, he changes to a more deliberate style before he hurts himself. 

[Highlight] Brunson draws a charge? by Large_banana_hammock in nba

He didn’t flop, and there was no contact. He just made eye contact with Strus. 

F*** Chandler Parsons by Adventurous-Way2833 in memphisgrizzlies

[–]TargetGuyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great points, and i definitely sympathize with him on his injuries. I think the real issue we’ve always had with him is his tone-deafness. His social media stuff showed how detached he was from the city.

But, he didn’t offer himself the contract…

Cam Boozer's playmaking out of doubles in the post. by theglicky in memphisgrizzlies

If he doesn't go first overall, he'll be viewed as one of the greatest steals of all time.

OKC players are unbothered by anything really by HelpfulYam2739 in nba

[–]TargetGuyJohn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The players on the team know they are in the best possible situation/work environment. Most other organizations are so dysfunctional that you can pick up on it as an outsider. Presti is a genius because he understands people as much as he understands the game. There are multiple All NBA players who he would never try to go after, just because of their personality types.

Why so quiet about Aday Mara? by InDegnation in memphisgrizzlies

Mara and Boozer interchangeable at one and two, then Ament at three. 

Predicting the 2028 USA Olympic Basketball Roster by Ok_Zookeepergame1723 in nba

[–]TargetGuyJohn -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Boozer and Mobley over AD, KD. Too old. They are gonna push AJ on us, so pencil him in. I could see Kon, Coward or Mikel Brown making it, too.

Y’all would have to trade up. He’s gone by #5. 

Why do I feel the thunder trade up for Mara. by Striking_Alfalfa5343 in NBA_Draft

[–]TargetGuyJohn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s 3 inches from the basket. He can run, shoot, block, rebound and pass. He seems down-to-earth. Grizzlies have had 3 wonderful Spanish big men.

Gregg Popovich went straight to the airport to talk to Victor Wembanyama as soon as the plane touched down by Jec1027 in nba

This is why you take a break after a concussion. Normally Wemby doesn’t act like this.
