Porzingis looking pretty good already. He needs work, but he could be so good.

Edit: I'm worried to see what happens to him when someone posts up on him though.

Has been sitting on the bench a long time. He injured?

Nevermind. He is back in. Finally. Barely played (considering he was a starter).

Not impressed by Porzingis.

Slow reactions. Reads the game poorly. Looks a low IQ player.

Not that athletic. I think it'll be a struggle for him to play the PF position. I think he'll be a center. Moves well once he builds up a head of steam but awkward over shorter distances and changing directions.

Finally time to see what Bobby Portis can do. Let's hope for a good game from him so the board melts down.

Apparently they had a minutes limit on him (18).

Towns consistently drawing a double team throughout two games.

He's been dealing with a hip injury.

Ah, okay. Did not know that. Good to know.

yeah with 1 rebound, zero block shots

I don't doubt his skills to make the jump shot or get some tip ins. Defensive can guard out to the perimeter. But watch him try to grab a defensive rebound

some ppl here criticize mickey regarding not being able to rebound, Portis gets pushed around (narrow shoulders does not help either) and has poor leaping ability to grab it in traffic

  • I'm a Paul Heyman guy.
Robert Upshaw has been fairing well against Towns and now Okafor.

Tell me again if that potential is not worth the #16?

And as soon as I rave about him, he got destroyed in the 3rd.

C'mon, man!

That potential is not worth it at #16, not with his issues.
