Not really.

He has always stated he prefers PF to C.

...and the team has always played better with him at C. Unless he gets more consistent with his perimeter game, I don't see any big changes coming.

 

[shopson67]

I think he understands.

He did say in the regular season.

Playing PF allows him to save wear and tear. Pretty sure he expects to play more C in the playoffs.

They'll save wear and tear by playing him less minutes instead. Maybe he plays some PF when Lebron is off the floor and replaced by a 3pt shooter. I can't see the Laker committing to Wood defending a tough center, so AD is likely at PF with Hayes at center and maybe Prince at SF.

I have no idea why favors and Whiteside aren’t on teams as backup bigs

Maybe they won't accept that role or pay scale?

T Swizzle GOATED.

Clutch points is being lazy though.

Drake, Beyoncé, Pink , shit Janet Jackson double them up.

You can use T Swift against every duo in the NBA and she would win.

Wow lol

Wow lol

So anticlimactic.

Feels like the Clippers taking a shit against Denver and robbing us of the so called battle of LA matchup.

Bigs matter in FIBA.

Just imagine if they had Joker.

Good start for Germany

I think the coming Olympics might be the most competitive

Depends on what team we bring.

This is the C Team and they could win World Cup gold.

In fairness, other Countries are missing big stars.

But, I don’t think anyone on Team USA will make the Olympic roster outside of Edwards and maaaaaaaaybe Brunson, Tyrese, if Curry, Dame, Kyrie don’t play.

But, Ja, Trae, Fox , Cade might have something to say about that.

Bridges should get an Olympic Team camp invite at minimum.

They had guys like Bridges on successful olympic teams.

Need some good non-ball dominant players

Yeah, PG is deeper than ever

It's interesting.

They dont' really need Curry Dame or Kyrie and they'd still have an edge against almost every country besides Luca

78 concerts is a pretty light schedule at that, lol. Less than 2 shows per week? Of course, with those ticket prices, why work harder?
