  1. I don’t believe Shai would ever pressure Presti about Dort. That would be stupid. He’s not. He understands the business.
    It’s looking like SA was extremely lucky to beat us.

  2. Really don’t think you can lose ihart – especially to a west rival. His passing and rebounding are so critical to this team. Thats one thing that if you are going ā€œsolo bigā€ in the playoffs that needs to improve is team rebounding, love Caruso but the eye test says we give up way too many offensive rebounds to his guys when he’s on the court and we don’t have double bigs. Same to a lot of the guards, probably because we don’t have true wing-sized players, and even dub isn’t really great on the defensive glass. Feels like if they want to play Chet more at the 5 you need a 6’8ā€+ guy to help on the boards otherwise they tend to get killed on the defensive glass. Big reason the knicks are having success right now has been their rebounding and KAT muscling Wemby, need someone who can shoot and add to rebounding.

  3. I think it’s tough for the Thunder because Chet can’t play the 5. But, their ceiling going forward is ultimately what he becomes offensively. He needs to speed up his shot and take 7-8 3s a game. Then it makes the double big lineup more viable but you also need to replace dort with Mitchell or Cason. A swiss army knife forward would truly solve a lot of their problems.

  4. i dont think yaxel falls at pick 12 , so presti should draft Morez Johnson at 12, then either Lopez or Swain at 17, maybe sign a centre with the 2nd round pick.
