2021-2022 NBA Season

[Shanemansj13]

Korkmaz went from Steph Turkey to Turk No-swishky in less than a week.

I mean we are talking about the same guy that put up 50 in a Summer League game and then when you see him in a game, “ohh yeah that’s the foreign guy that went off in that one summer league game, cool”

1 game suspension for Jokic and a $50k fine for Morris

I’m ok with that

 

[dtgold88]

Maybe. They are very young though. They may "hit a wall" or the league may figure them out and they'll have trouble adjusting to it.

Chances are that 1 or maybe both happen to them. Losing Sexton isn't going to help either.

Something to this....but chances were Mobley would struggle early as a rookie and he has not. Garland looking like he might take another step forward so not sure he gets figured out in year 3 if he wasn't in year 2. also played pretty well without nearly 40% of their rotation last few games.

agree losing Sexton will hurt and need some others back soon.

Barkley and Shaq thought Morris got off light since he started it.

It seems like each young kid in the core has taken the next step and like you said, Mobley is already above what we thought he would be at this point

Only one we don't know has taken the next step yet is Okoro. Garland and allen for sure look like they have. I guess Sexton has not as his scoring has come down........that's fine, of course, as we now have others who can score. His overall % is still fine, but hope he gets that 3 point % back up near 38% when he returns.

Yep Okoro we know can defend but can he knock down the open 3 and finish in traffic and be aggressive when needed

Pretty weak.

I'm glad they went light on the punishments

I do think he can finish in traffic as he has an NBA body. Hopefully will continue to be aggressive going to the hoop with the ball and cutting without. One I'm not as sure about is the outside shooting.

 

[Robotech]

Pretty weak.

Maybe it's the Giannis precedent from the video I posted.

Should have got 2

 

[HurricaneDij39]

I’m ok with that

I probably would have gone two for Jokic, one for Butler, and a fine for Morris...

But, if Joker is going to miss one game it might as well come against the Pacers.

Hawks looking like a fluke

1-6 on the road

The disrespect

Maybe it's the Giannis precedent from the video I posted.

I don't know...didn't that happen a year or 2 before Adam Silver became the commish?
