    That is my new rally cry for this season. We need a skilled front court player to balance this team out. Meyers and Vonleh are garbage. Davis and Plumlee are good in their own right but they are " junk yard dog" type players.


    Tuo sunkusis krašto puolėjas . šešių 10 . Nuo Gonzaga . Taškų vienuolika , Domantus Sabonis!

    64% from the field, 86% from the line, 10 boards and 15.5 in 28 minutes. That's efficient production.

    We should figure out a way to have Atlanta move up to draft him and trade him to us on draft night. It would be only fitting.

    I would be willing to trade vonleh, 2nd rounder for him if we don't get him on draft him. add him with brandon ingram will really help our scoring.

    i also forgot about jakob poeltl, he is so good. he is so good at rim protection and overall inside presence, also his post moves seem to have been sharpen and still improving his already incredible offense game. if we can get him or sabonis to pair with ingram then we are looking at a great team. then if we get a 2nd round pick and use that on gary payton the 2nd, he is so freakin amazing.

    that team would rival golden state warriors and the 90's bulls with the possibility of being better then both of them

    I'd have gone with, "Major Suck for Mini Sabas".

    Yeah, not sold that an 8 to ten pick power forward is going to offer a path back to contention within Dame's time frame as a top PG.

    Well, let's just say that the Tennessee Volunteers aren't quite the same as the Memphis Grizzlies.

    Let's just get Donatas Motiejunas or Whiteside... Do we have to get Domantas just because his father played a few years in Portland?

    dude has good foot work. will blossum faster than a meyers because he has fundamentals down and good iq. i still think he should be targeted by blazers

    FYI i called lillard after 1 workout video and I called farried over nolan smith based solely on hair. im an expert.

    I think everyone on here called Faried over Nolan Smith. Blazers were the only ones who didnt. But hey, at least we got Felton.

    I have now watched two complete Gonzaga games this season and I don't think Sabonis has an NBA game..he can dominate small guys in college but he looks like he'll get crushed in the big leagues. He got 36 last night but he was getting pushed out of the paint by guys about 6'4 ..needs to hit the weight room but from a small sample size, I would not tank to get him in the draft for sure..he's not his dad by a long stretch
