Dodds should have redshirted long ago.

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 07:36:21 PMIt was for sure a bad fit, and I agree he's not made to be second fiddle. But I also don't think he's anywhere good enough to be the best player on a title team, like most thought he was prior to coming to Milwaukee.

I think he's a top 75 offensive player, but in my opinion, I don't see him being a top 75 player in the history of basketball like he has been named.

Quote from: Shaka Shart on Today at 07:33:46 PMOr dame was a very ball dominant player as you allude above and Giannis has taken a much more ball dominant role in recent years with a significantly higher usage rate than dame even before they played together. I don't think dame is as bad as you make him out to be, I think he's just a bad fit to be second fiddle

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 03:33:40 PMI think Milwaukee exposed him some.  When he was in Portland he had the excuse of never really getting to play on a championship level roster.  Then the Bucks traded a true winner away for him, and the team got significantly worse.  Injuries kept the Bucks from potentially winning titles in 2022 and 2023 (less likely than 2022), and they might have won they title in 2020 if not for the pandemic interrupting the season (they were 52-8 through 60 games that year), plus they very easily could've won the title in 2019 (up 2-0 on Toronto and went to double overtime in game 3).  The Bucks were a much better team with Eric Bledsoe and Jrue Holiday at point guard than they were with Dame.

He's 5'9" and doesn't even try defensively.  When you're that little, you have to at least put in effort.  And the 35 foot side step 3s are awesome when they go in, and shooting them at a 25% or whatever clip is incredible given the difficulty, but that's still a horrendously inefficient possession, and that's how Dame loved to play.

Wemby was a lot of fun to watch yesterday.  I had a similar skill-set (with better handles) but am a few inches shorter than him.     It sorta looks like he's playing nerf hoop in his basement.  He's a legit 7'4....maybe 7'5.

No one from Marquette listed in the Top 100 to start the season.

I'm worried.

Quote from: MuggsyB on Today at 07:10:07 PMI don't disagree with you about personal responsibility.  The problem however is a little different in this case.  When you have apps with easy access, as well as algorithms that can target kids, or even young college players that are making millions in NIL, it's arguably exploitation.  I equate it to Instagram targeting young girls and messing with their self-esteem.

Ironically I listened to the end of this press conference on NBA radio on the way to work.  After the presser concluded, there were two radio adds for online betting companies.  You can't make this up.  Young people are absolutely bombarded with this crap Pakuni.  It's not right and can lead to tremendous emotional destruction, or worse.
