The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

The hater part of me wants OKC to suck this year. They got too much hype

It’s hard to believe you have a hater part

It has been good to see Jonathan Isaac play again. It's crazy how active he is on defense, basically trying to contest every shot.

He reminds me of Hendricks with how long he is and how he moves, but right now Hendricks is the exact opposite of him as far as being aggressive.

I think Hendricks is being held back right now because he basically doesn't know what he's doing. The athleticism should be there.

He's also timid. Hardy likes players with cajones like THT.

Ausar is great because he can do a little bit of everything. He can play on ball/off ball, is switchable on defense and his shot still has a ways to go, but is looking so much better.

I've already eaten my crow about Ausar and now I'm a huge fan. I love the way he plays.

Tony Bradley signed with the Mavs today, Elijah Hughes signed with the Bucks and D Favors was signed and released by the Bulls. It appears the GLeague is in all their futures.

Giving me a ton of Iggy vibes. I didn't know what to make of the Twins and OTE, but they've definitely got some game. Though it's worth noting they were two of the older prospects in the lottery.

this is basically his rookie year.

Is this referred to as "The Australian Rule?"

There are two pathways to perpetual rookie-dom: the Australian injury path and the CJ Miles “he’s just a kid” path.

I can't wait for James Harden to be out of the NBA.

Not super interesting, but he was the 2019 pick we sent to Memphis in the Mike Conley trade (the other pick we sent became Kessler)

He was also supposed to be the Stars’ #1 pick, back when they had the #1 pick, and back when he was gonna do the G League. I can’t remember who the Stars ended up picking. I think it was someone who already played in the league.

He is the exact type of player we should be taking a cheap look at.
