Yabu vs Jazz SL highlights

[PhoSita]

Anybody else get the feeling that if Guerschon had grown up in the U.S. he'd be playing Defensive End at a D1 college right now?

Really odd body for a basketball player.  Not terribly explosive, but he's surprisingly nimble.  If his three point shot is legit and he can learn to play adequate defense, he could be a rotation big in a few years.

My hope for 2019 is the Yabusele vs Porzingis matchup.... where both are stretch 5s.

Imagine how ridiculous that would be on the court

Not to mention the play-by-play announcers stumbling over their words.

I'm thinking the 8 inch height difference could be an issue there.

Kid has some solid athleticism given his body makeup.  Looks quick for his size.

Not concerned, Likely will be a 40 lb weight difference.
Yabusele will redeem Refrigerator Perry's loss to Manute

Probably, kinda like Rico Gaithers. That or tight end.

His body type is very similar to Milsap, only a bit more quick-twitch.

"Big Baby" Davis with range

Fixed for ya.

I think the guy's future is as a small-ball 5. Keep in mind he's the same height as Draymond Green.

My god, you're right. Green is 6'7" . I just looked him up. He looks and plays a lot bigger on the court. There's hope for this kid.

It didn't take GS, however, very long to sign a rim protector--Pachulia--after they shed Boguts.
You got to have a rim protector, and that's what they're missing. Along with scoring. Okafor?

Arr you still harping on that? We signed a rim protector. Al Horford is a much better rim protector than Jahlil Okafor

Between this guy, Smart, and Serena Williams, I'm surprised that scouts for the Patriots aren't at our games, lol . You could probably put Marcus Thornton in that group, as well, as, what, a wide receiver?  I don't watch football, lol .

Zaza is not really a rim protector...He just gets a lot of rebounds, but doesn't really block shots.  He does give the toughness with the hard fouls, however.

He's ok, probably can live up to a expectation of #16 pick: a reliable bench player. But don't think he'll be much better than Sully or Bass.
