Walker Kessler Thoughts?

[JohnnyClutch]

He doesn't look as lost as most rookies in their first games.

Seeing that he's got decent intangibles for a 20 year old rookie is great to see. I'm excited to see his game grow.

Just curious but could VW be versatile enough to play the 4 in the NBA? A Kessler/VW tandem on the floor would be nuts!

What about a Markannen, Kessler, Wemby frontcourt?

Yes, VW should probably be a 4 in the NBA.

I wouldnt play VW at the 5 personally, at lest not as a starter. I'd want him next to someone to take the physicality of the position off his shoulders. VW can dominate as a 4.

Maybe that would change once VW fills out and can prove he's a reliably healthy NBA player, but I wouldnt start his career as 5.

Cy had a bizarre take, and fortunately he's reversing course within 72h lol.

Contrary to some of the other dud experiences we're seeing (the coach, Simone, Butler) this dude looks great right out of the gates. Damian worked him, but I've seen Damian and CP3 work Gobert off of stepbacks-- not an issue at this juncture.

Other play not being discussed here from last night is the simple dump-pass to the cutter. He plays smoothly, he has good feel, and he knows what he's doing. It's rare, and to me he's been the early surprise of the season.

Kessler screams big finesse center in the post. He could blossom into a above average starter. I would have him focus on his strengths which is being big and some rim protection and maybe let him do some work in the post.

Walker Kesller will be destroyed by our coach Hardy desire to win, we have legit chance miss on this french sensation becsuse Hardy will play veterans instead of Walker Kessler.
