Svi attended Kansas so maybe Ainge is tring to channel Dok and Ochai in one guy.
He’s bothHe's less skilled than people realize. He's more athletic than people realize
If he was more skilled than we realized, he wouldnt be a career negative offensive player since he is viewed as being a shooter.He’s both
He’s played five years and just signed with the jazz making us his 8th team in 5 years. Hard to learn winning basketball when you can’t stick with a winning team. The fact he was drafted middle to late second round and still around is telling you that there’s something there. Everytime he goes to a new team he has to rebuild trust.If he was more skilled than we realized, he wouldnt be a career negative offensive player since he is viewed as being a shooter.
Advanced stats wise his defense is stronger than his offense, which I would guess if you polled NBA fans who are aware of him, they would be surprised to find. I know I was.

Tells me he is athletic and a decent defender, so teams are willing to see if the offense ever comes around given that was his reputation entering the NBA. But he's much less skilled than people's perception of him is.He’s played five years and just signed with the jazz making us his 8th team in 5 years.

The league is a business guys get traded and first rounders get more opportunities I don’t know the circumstances for how he left a team be it him being cut for various reasons or traded as part of a bigger trade or whatever.Tells me he is athletic and a decent defender, so teams are willing to see if the offense ever comes around given that was his reputation entering the NBA.

Good post.Its (hopefully) 100% youth development season and 80% tanking season I would say. I mean how could it even be 100% tanking season when they extend Lauri instead of trading him?
Svi and Eubanks are the type guys you put out there when someone deserves a moment in the doghouse.
With Eubanks its super easy to see. If Kessler and/or Flip plays soft then Hardy can put Eubanks out there to show how not to be soft. Svi I'm not that familiar with, but I would imagine he probably is a high effort and high motor guy who can show Cody and Hendricks that effort can beat talent.
Yeah. It’s a great contract. Like I said earlier, I wish they would’ve given this contract to Simone.This is honestly crazy. One of the most valuable dirt-cheap contracts in the league if he looks serviceable.
