Memo... we have a job for you. Polish the Pliess!
The strange thing is that it seems that we are all behind the curve. Maybe the hype was deadened by the endless Tomic saga. I viewed Pleiss as a consolation prize, but maybe he is much more. I can't wait to actually watch him play in the NBA.wow.. I hadn't even checked his %'s. Very impressive. 85% FT shooter - 50% 3pt shooter.
doesn't rebound, pass, or block worth a damn, but with his size and touch, he's a great value... and, yes, I know I am waaay behind the curve here. Welcome me.
Could be like the Memphis trade when everyone said they got nothing for Pau...except that one of the "throw ins" turned out to be Marc Gasol. Not saying Pleiss will be that good, but if he gives Utah quality minutes behind Gobert, I think we are winners.I would imagine that jaws were on the floor as Jazz brass watched him shoot that percentage. When we got him in that trade I don't think anyone thought this was a possibility. If he is able to hit two thirds of this percentage in game situations he will become yet another nightmare for our opponents.

, but if he gives Utah quality minutes behind Kanter, .
I chill went down my back as I read that.
Pretty sure I read he was 7'1.5" barefoot, so yes, probably 7'2.5" or 7'3" with shoes on.is he really 7'3?
