Meyers plays basketball because he’s tall. He likes the lifestyle and without it he doesn’t have his wife. Now he can make hats and jeans and a logo. That’s success.
I was gonna watch the Neil interview and then I saw this. Safe to say I was done as soon as I saw it.
I liked what Stotts said about not playing off the dribble as much. More movement! And CJ said Zack was going to be an elite defender!
Zach said in his live Q&A that Layman has been the standout in all their scrimmages and workouts. So either the team instructed all these guys to mention Jake or he’s ready to make his mark.
I really hope CJ is genuine in his desire to pass more... it really is the only way I can see this team staying competitive. It can be hard to change when you have been playing a certain way your entire life...
Zach pretty much saying he’s more of a 4 this year, but it’ll depend on matchups. Said Nurk and Meyers will probably get the majority of the minutes at the 5. Lol. The Meyers roller coaster is a go again.
I got you. Trade NO to another franchise. Then we'll have at least 1 other franchise interested in Nards. CJ is too smart to not identify weaknesses in his game. We're not talking about Dwight Howard here.
A lot of our second round, or late first round picks have had a 3rd year jump during the Stotts era. It wouldn't surprise me to see Jake make a jump this season. He always moved well and looked like a fluid athlete on the court. He just missed almost all of his shots. If he can calm his ass down on the court, I could see him doing some good things.
Meyers is good at defending the rim? I think he's confusing twitter, where he blocks people left and right.
That’s whats frustrating about Jake. You know he’s got it in him to be at least a rotation player. He’s got good size, he’s athletic, can move laterally, can defend, etc. If he ever developed consistency with his shot, we could even be talking about a potential starter. It’s like the one thing holding him back is the one thing he was supposed to be good at.
