Tristan ain’t the problem. Theis is the one who needs to go to the bushes.
The problem is his signing relegated Rob to the bench. Theis was also pretty solid last year, while Thompson has been ass for years. Either way, I don't see why Williams isn't starting

Great fake by the Cowboys. They had me as well as the entire Giants defense fooled on that play.

Shyt like this is why I despise the AAU system in America. All it does is allow people to coach their sons and in the process turn them into an egomaniac.

If Marvin Bagley had any self-awareness he would realize he needs to work on his game to be a contributing player on the Kings.

Trading him to another team will probably have him playing off the bench. Which he is going to bytch about.

Eventually after his rookie contract he will be playing in Europe or China.

The NBA needs to stomp out the AAU system in America. It only benefits greedy enablers/handlers and for the most part stunts the development of young players.

Jaylen Brown's start to the season has been crazy. There's no way he can sustain these shooting percentages over the course of a whole season so I know it's only a matter of time before he comes down to earth, but it's been fun to watch while it lasts :wow:

Last year was last year. Theis has done nothing this season but foul, get dunked on and brick open 3's. Time Lord has more to do with Stevens being stubborn and playing favorites. Time Lord ain't gonna start unless his hand gets forced, unfortunately.

Hayward being injury prone was a blessing in disguise for the Celtics as it gave Brown and Tatum more minutes to develop into all star players.

Still they fukked up not trading Hayward for Turner. Tristan ain't that good.

Turner isn't worth that contract and he'd be another average big taking minutes away from Rob Will.

Theis/Tristan are the only players who consistently blocks out for rebounds. The C's get killed on the offensive boards when Theis or Tristan isn't out there. Watch Williams when they are on defense and a shot goes up, doesnt consistently block out his man or loses leverage.
