    He will however constantly bump this thread if Nards actually does do well this season.
    He will spam I told you so every chance he gets.

    Just like he would've bump'd his Brook Lopez thread, if Portland would've traded for him a couple years ago.

    Edit.

    Hard to tell with KS. I think he’s half serious at least. Some people are about it though and it scares me. I would love to be wrong about Meyers but maaaan I don’t know.

    It's also on the training staff if he's in the league for a few years and hasn't improved this aspect. He just doesn't get defense but someone should at least try to teach him

    With that said, I have faith in Meyers, his offense and energy make him a positive impact on the floor

    he scored some points in preseason in the 2nd string line up against for a team that was experimenting and against a team that was leading by enough to not care.

    meyers is meyers and this shall always be.

    he's gonna be as much of a clueless hot mess as he's always been.

    He has slow reaction times mentally and physically. It doesn't matter how he is coached, the NBA is the best couple hundred players on the planet and he doesn't have the ability to compete at that level.

    To get the best outcome we need to ensure that Meyers plays 40 minutes a night and gets at least 40 swish3 attempts per game. With guaranteed 50% efficiency that is 20 made swish 3s and 60 points from Meyers EVERY night alone.

    ...where's swish3 when you need him.

    They probably could if he wasn't so stiff playing out there plus just look he got bad feet. If that it then nothing you can do about that after 7 years.

    You forgot to change the font, otherwise it's good.

    What would you guys consider a break out year for Meyers at this point? Or even a decent year?
    Like 10 minutes a game and average 4-5 points and a couple rebounds?
    Id consider a breakout year for him to be similar to his 2015 campaign he averaged something like 8 and 5...
    When I see threads like this I just wonder what sort of production are you looking for?

    If you’re expecting 15 and 10 a night on 25 - 30 minutes a game, well I have my doubts...

    A thread will be bumped if Meyers plays well?

    And that's bad because why?

    My dad told me to never have unprotected picks.

    At least I think that's what he said. I was wearing headphones.
