No they need him to create value so they can trade him. Gotta hope he gets really hot so they find a suiter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierhoopster Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Yogi did not have a strong game on Sunday, just 2 points, but 17 min (second most off bench) and Sacto wins again, downing Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 OG 24 pts 5 Reb’s on 10-13 shooting and 4 threes. Toronto needs to lock him up long term before he really breaks out or they won’t be able to afford to keep him and Siakim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean fans pay to see that stuff and deserve a chance to see history. I guess he is coming off an injury so they are being safe with him but he has 70pts in like 40 mins the past two games lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it’s to not keep him in and risk injury when unnecessary. Kawhi missed his .3d in a row for his knee tonight — turns out they had a real reason to keep him out of games and PG just came off those surgeries but man did he look amazing in that game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 OG 10-13 and 4-7 for 24 points and 5 boards in W against Charlotte (and Cody) tonight. OG is very much back on the track his rookie season showed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwtaylor1055 Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 Luka is straight killing it, can he maintain over the course of a full season who knows but when comparing his season stats to year two of other guys like Lebron his stats are significantly better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we're seeing records that keep dropping as this season takes off. Just think about this for a second, he's only 20 years old. I don't know if we're seeing the makings of one of the next great ones, but we might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, Duncan's maybe the best PF ever, so high praise for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 Luka is pretty crazy. Not sure I’ve seen a big guard like him. Lots of him reminds me of Jason Kidd but dang he has pizazz like Ginoboli and shoots like Dirk. He has a great future ahead of him. He also fits perfectly into Dallas culture there. The Trey Young trade may work out for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Carsen had like 18 soo Purdue fans are gonna be happy about that and Romeo not getting time Looks like Carson has had two very good games this year, but is a non-factor most games he plays in and averaging right at 33% shooting from the field. Very streaky. If I were Brad Stevens, I'd put him in and tell him to shoot. Most games, he'll go 0-3 and get benched, but every once in awhile, he'll go off on a team like he did against the Cavaliers and Wizards. Unless his shot consistency improves a bunch, I don't see him as a long-term solution at the NBA level. Just too many athletes that can guard him there. ...and if Romeo can't stay healthy, he won't make it either Celtics may have a bust of a draft this year. What you say, @BGleas?

Not Gleas, but you don't give up on your lottery pick 1/4 way into his rookie season with injuries. I suspect it's going to be a long year for Romeo, the way it's started and as well as the C's are playing, with depth at his position (which of course is not Edwards' position), but that doesn't signal they're throwing the towel in on him. That would be moronic, and that's really not the C's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zlinedavid Posted November 22, 2019 Report Share Posted November 22, 2019 Kid is ridiculously talented and is all of what....19/20/21 years old? The NBA has always drafted on potential. Now, it's even moreso. The days of every first round pick being expected to immediately contribute are gone. These are (literally in some cases) kids. They're going to need time to develop.

That would be moronic, and that's really not the C's. Certainly I don't expect them to throw in the towel just yet and I'm not questioning Romeo's talent...just his ability to stay healthy. The kid has a history of back problems and he's not even old enough to drink. Throw in hand and ankle injuries and it looks a little grim to me from the outside. I'm sure they'll give him every chance to succeed. I just have some real questions about his body durability... ...which is why one and done was by far the smartest move for Romeo whether fans ever understand or not is another question.

They're going to need time to develop. If you look back at my post, it's more a question of durability than talent. Romeo has shown himself to be very injury-prone, a lot like Eric Gordon has been. Hopefully he gets past those problems like Gordon did, but there are a lot of talented kids that simply can't overcome the injuries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
