I would say more than 60% of what you’re trying to get in every category is a good start.

It would be pretty funny to say someone almost had a triple-double with 6 rebounds and 4 assists.

So if he would have had 1 more steal you would have been fine with me saying it? You are bitching to me over 1 steal?

Yeah, you just like arguing with me. You thirst for it lmao.

Could be. There always exceptions and trends sometimes change. One thing to remember is that no one ever said that Bilal cant ever be good or wont ever be good. No one said no one from france is ever good or will ever be good. Just pointed out what has been typical. What the trend has been. The recent history. No biggie. It was/is a weird thing to get caught up on. People discuss where players played all the time.

lmao they are hedging after they watched him have a good SL game. Got to love it.

Inside joke but yeah... Bilal had one Tony Snell half and one AK47 half. I believe there was a poster here that told you he'd go off today...















It was me... I said it.

Honestly, scoring 19 pts and having 4 blks doesn't really means going off. lol He had a very decent game. If he had 30+ pts, 10+ rebs and 5 blks. That's going off. But he's got potential I'll give you that.

So... have you changed your mind now? Is he now the best French prospect to enter the league since Gobert? Now is the time to jump on the Bilaly Cubaly Island.

Are you serious or joking? I just call it as I see it. In the summer league game I watched i said he was invisible... because he was... if he had played like this I wouldn't have said it obviously. I said numerous times I'm not making any definitive judgements based on summer league. I think my stance on Bilal has been really consistent from pre-draft time to right now. One summer league game did not make me declare him a bust and one will not make me think he is a top 7 prospect in this draft. Its super encouraging though.

I jokingly declared he'd get 25 today because I was mocking the Bilal truthers.
 
Bilal has shown everything he needed to show this SL. Point blank period.

If this is the base of what he has to work with going forward, he's at a great starting point.

Which is part of why I don't get the Exum comp... I think they are different body and player types.

When I posted that... what provoked my post was one of those burst of speed with ball in his hands where he left his defender in the dust... but then didn't finish... and a few possessions before that he had a typical Dante sloppy handle where he lets the ball to get poked away...

A lot of it is the rawness with bursts of intrigue sprinkled throughout ... plus they have very similar built big, long guards with some athleticism... IMO Bilal is more athletic, but still...
 
How is Ousmane Dieng playing so well too? Is the world going to explode with all these French players playing basketball well?
