Walker Kessler Should No Longer Play Until KO is Traded

[HermanG]

Hmm... something fishy about that list. That "relative" term.. what does it mean?

I think..... Bismack Biyombo = Giannis Antetokounmpo? Lmao.

In actual DFG% Giannis is #1 I think and Kessler + Lauri are both also top 5ish. So Kessler and Lauri are almost equally good on DFG% than rDFG%.. but Giannis goes from #1 to not on the list?

Actually scratch that. I opened the post and the author said it only has C and C-F listed. Giannis is listed as F he is filtered out.

Damn we have 2 in the top 10 of this stat. Nice!

The look on my face knowing this thread will be bumped everytime Kessler has a great game

Seeing Olynyk higher than John Collins on this list gives me pause. . .

The list is kind of bad by itself tho. Guess who KO is often sharing the floor with? Lauri or Kessler. If a **** is being contested by one of them in the paint, chances are KO is also in the paint, so he is also going to get credited as a rim defender.

One of the wild things about Kessler's story is that he could barely see the floor as a Freshman at UNC to the point where he had to transfer. Going from that to a ROTY contender (though he has no shot, he will at least be mentioned as a candidate) in two years is wild.

He has a Gobert like effect on defense. The rebuild has been sped up by a year or two. Wowzas!

Taking defense to a whole new level!

I am a huge Carolina basketball fan and I was surprised he didn't stay and fight for minutes if you will; was even a bit disappointed tbh. But, that's way over with now lol and glad he is part of this team. Just keeps getting better and better each game.

I love his story. He is such a humble nice kid. I love to see guys like that getting success so soon. And damn, give him 2 years of NBA conditioning and he will be an absolute beast. Already much lighter on his feet and faster than advertised. Get him some confidence on those moves around the rim and a right NBA body and man, he will be a force. Cannot wait! Did we somehow luck into Rudy but with offensive chops? Day-um!
