How did Pleiss look during the summer league?

[SCS]

He has an outside shot that stretches out to three. That's a plus. But he's not very mobile on defense and he gets out muscled and out hustled when rebounding. He needs to work on his strength. Smaller guys just move him wherever they want.

What advantages do we get of him being 7'3"? Shooting over people? If he's not doing the things traditionally associated with size (rebounding, shot blocking, etc.), then wouldn't it make about as much sense to play anyone at center who can shoot, regardless of size?

He doesnt look that bad. He can shoot. He'd probably look less bad on defense on a team that has other good defenders. Is he NBA? IDK. Is he better than Bolomboy? Yes.

Pleiss boxes out better

Remember, Bolomboy is a rookie who's 5 years younger, plus we have Withey, why do we need Pleiss?

Why do we need Bolomboy?

Didn't say we need him either. But he does have more potential, could keep his rights and let him play overseas to see if he develops.

People are far to interested in offense. He made a couple 3s last night and they started calling him threepor. His defense just will never be good enough. His man routinely went bye him like he was stuck in mud. His help rotations were so slow as to be nonexistent and he is just too slow of foot to play on an NBA level.

Spot on Oldtimer, that's what I saw too. We oldsters need to stick together.

A buddy system would be helpful to avoid a wondering off situation.

This is the message board version of wandering off. Try not to get lost wondering.

Only saw highlights of the games... but everything I read indicated that neither Pliess nor Bolomboy were that impressive. So glad we got Diaw! With a Withey, either are expendable.
Bolomboy will play in D-League and may develop... but considering he's a 4yr college player, from the summer league games so far, he doesn't ramp up quickly. Maybe he'll impress the next few days, but not holding my breadth.
Pliess doesn't want to play D-League, but he was average so far, when he should have stood out. I don't see him getting any minutes this year, so we should look to move him for something... don't care what...

I also laughed out loud. You are very funny guy Cappy Smurf. Maybe now my profile pic makes more sense to some of y'all.
