@Savory Griddles In that case, I say F defense and draft Okafor anyway.
Yeah I can't wait to see more of Randle, along with Clarkson, AND Towns or Okafor. This offseason is crazy.
Perhaps that's what Worthy sees in Randle. All praises when he talks about the kid :) On offense, I agree that his bully-ball style would be...
Marc Gasol, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green to name a few that were scouted as weak defenders coming out of college. Now they are elite.
He certainly has the lateral quickness. You could easily project him to defend 3 positions (2 through 4)
Great reads @ElginTheGreat I have no doubt Okafor will improve as a defender. If he doesn't show effort, Byron will bench him in favor of Black...
Ideally, yes. But realistically, you have a guy like Lebron shooting 17.6% beyond the arc, playing next to Thompson whose perimeter game is...
Yeah, I'm still not convinced that playing him as a SF is a 'bad idea' He should be just as effective at both positions (3 and 4) if he develops...
Russell and Mudiay were nice talking about when we were destined to draft #4 or #5, but not with the #2 pick. Their floors are ALOT lower than...
What a prospect.... [MEDIA] [MEDIA]
^ good points, yeah I haven't really seen bigger guys bending their knees inwards. But to be fair, all those guys in the video are giants (esp...
I was taught bending the knees inwards is a good shooting mechanic. Better explained here. [MEDIA]
I'm with real. We have a better owner, a better GM, a better coach, better players, and last but not least, we have a tradition of winning....
Although I still prefer Okafor, I've been reading reports that Towns shot over 50% on threes in high school and having the greatest defensive win...
That too, Towns was asked to do less and had alot more help. Okafor had to focus on carrying his team's scoring load, similar to the situation of...
I wonder how much the shoulder injury affected his offensive efficiency last year... because honestly, the 37 FG% version of Kobe is quite...
Defense will come later with these rookies. I think coaching, experience and IQ, execution, court awareness, and effort are far more important...
I've gone to some Timberwolves forums, and their fans prefer Towns 8:2 or 7:3
even Jeanie would hang up
We got it from Houston for taking Lin's contract.
