Back 2 Lawrence is right. Hunter has good skills, but does he impact winning?? So far he hasn't really

Last season we built around hunter (poorly) and our play style was one of the worst team products I've seen in awhile. Subpar defense and a slower pace offense that struggled to score at times

Self needs to figure out what to do on D. Offense doesn't matter if you can't defend the pick and roll. Three final four teams last season seemed to have it figured out - how to defend with an immobile center. Just because they had big centers doesn't mean they are immobile. Clingan is projected to...

Dajuan
Zeke
Griffen
Storr
Hunter

Is an intriguing offensive lineup

I find it reasonable to think hunter and KJ both play less minutes next season.

Both will be a big part of the rotation obviously, but we have quality depth, that both affords them to rest more, and allows self to tinker with lineups

It's official he's back. Ask and you shall receive

We would look a lot different without him. In some ways, we would be better

Like when we play defense

We have a lot of different lineup possibilities now with these portal guys giving us long athletic shooters

Lineups that don't have KJ out there with zero shooting ability

Lineups that don't have slowmo hunter guarding the pick and roll

I'm intrigued

Embiid channeling his inner draymond? The nba community thinks he's been playing dirty

Slow buckets ain't going nowhere

Lots of big shooters on the roster

Maybe. He's coming off the bench for the 76ers. Behind Lowry Oubre and Harris on their depth chart. He only played 15min last night. Indiana has a good team and chose to move on from him. I get it. You really like Buddy Hield. I think he's decent too. Definitely good enough to be a rotation pkayer ...

Nice take down embiid

Maybe. I have a dream where McDowell redshirts. Practice warrior who keeps improving and we get a 5 year program guy

Looks like kugel won't be here? Supposedly having some academic issues complicating the transfer process and enrolling at KU

i'm still mad about whatever happened with micah downs. man i was super stoked about that recruiting class and he ups and leaves what, 3 weeks in? also, oussie will be thrilled to check out some recent photos of that guy. Late commitment of brush. Downs thought he would be the man, then rush was

The new recruiting process: recruit several freshman prospects early in the process, so you have incoming talent. Then in the spring see what's in the portal and try to over recruit the freshman with proven experienced players, and scare off the incoming freshman

Issac mccbride, royce Woodridge, zach Peters.. did any of those guys make it to campus?

I guess it's been going on awhile. Just probably going to increase in frequency

We did have 2 freshman flake last year too It's certainly becoming common and definitely a product of the portal era Freshman recruits are going to become more rare. Freshman that come in and stay 4 years? Even rarer KJ and dajuan might have their weaknesses, but we probably need to appreciate them,...

I still can't wrap my head around Minnesota being this much better than the Suns. Playing defense matters in the playoffs They're battling now. It just seems like in theory/on paper Beal/Booker/Durant should be so potent. Yes it does. But they really don't play well together. The ball doesn't move ...
