I mean OG did have a near lottery grade pre-injury...I can't really knock that pick I assumed it was a good value pick based on his defensive potential but Brooks looks like a player who would of been a better fit....

Also what are they doing with Poetl?

I still think he slipped because of DX. DX was REALLY down on him because they didn't know where he would play at the next level and he was seen as kind of a chucker at Oregon. I like him though, dude is tough as nails and he's not afraid of anything. At the Pan Ams finals, the rest of the team was hanging their head when they were losing and kept looking into the crowd when people were talking about them. He didn't acknowledge any of the criticisms from the crowd. He barely played and he was basically trying to pump the entire team up, changed the entire team's energy when he came in. Memphis definitely got a steal

Where is he on the full strength squad's depth chart? We really have no excuse for 2020 with the amount of talent and depth we have.

Wait we're calling OG a bad pick ?? Lol
He fell to us because of his Acl,he is the biggest steal of this draft...he needs to get healthy,but he's an aggressive defender who has great basketball instincts and a great motor.

Apparently Jonas is hurt and will miss some time?

I'd like to see Poeltl start, but in all honesty i thought we looked really good with Ibaka at the 5 in the playoffs last year.

I bet Siakam and Ibaka start

I know Jonas had 23/15 on opening night but we cant deny the team is better defensively with poeltl and Nogueira.Both are alot quicker and use there size better to change shots especially Lucas.I was ready to abandon bebe but his defense impressed me last night.

Hes our best big defender and rim protector,despite the dumb mistakes he makes.
