Otto Porter is a great player man.

[Conscious Pilot]

Hell of a dish to Meeks there

Ottos improvement has been

 

[Derek Lee]

This bonehead Morris

 

[William F. Russell]

Why they leave the shooter open?

Morris bugged out.

 

[EarlyEarly]

One of the stupidest defensive lapses I've seen

 

[bl2k8]

crowd was chantin "MY LEFT STROKE JUST WENT VIRAL" a while ago

Peeped that shyt too. White ass Boston crowd chanting rap lyrics. Red Auerbach rolling in his grave

Otto Porter is a great player man.

That was a well designed play. Get something going to the basket and if someone bites kick it out for the 3 if they don't you get a layup with 3.5 seconds left.

 

[Darealtwo1]

Why they leave the shooter open?

Natural instincts to collapse to the paint

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Morris has no fukking awareness, dumb muthafukka

 

[CHERUB]

great play design

 

[Liquid]

That was a well designed play. Get something going to the basket and if someone bites kick it out for the 3 if they don't you get a layup with 3.5 seconds left.

John Wall would have forced a 3 for either him or Beal.

I like the Wizards more without him tbh.

Nah, Thon just doesn't have it, he's not nearly as explosive as people thought, his frame is very slight and looks like he'll have trouble putting on weight.

He's one of the worst rebounding 7 footers ever, there have been other skinny guys who can rebound, he has absolutely no feel for where the ball is going and his hands aren't that great ontop of it.


They would have been much better off drafting Skal who is another project but looks like he has more to work with in terms of feel for the game, which is saying a lot of how bad Thon is.

He’s still only 21, I’d give him the rest of his rookie contract to show us what he is.

Even if he never becomes a solid rebounder he still has upside as a stretch 5 with some guard skills and as a defender. He has high upside in those areas.

It looks really stupid after the fact but there was 5 seconds left and Otto had a wide open layup that would of only taken 1 second off the clock. That was a great play design given the situation and time on the clock.
