Superstar

Apologies
He’s knocking on the door. Just gotta improve his fg%. He was great tonight: 10 for 17, 59% but for the season he’s shooting 48%. That’s good for a guard/jump shooter but for a paint-scoring big? Gotta get closer to 60%.
Comparatively, this year: Jokić - 65%, Giannis - 63%, Wemby - 50%, Duren - 67%, Chet - 59%
I thought they shoulda cashed in and traded Mobley a year or two ago when his value was sky high and so many people thought he was a future superstar.
That bullshyt DPOY he got made his contract
I blame Bill Simmons getting The Ringer echo chamber in overdrive for him.
Frustrating watching him knowing what he is capable of doing.
Just for one game, I wanna see him out there with the Cavs G-league squad so he'd have to be aggressive.
We've already seen Mitchell put up big numbers in the playoffs and lose. If this team wants to go where they think they can, Mobley has to be featured a lot more.

That hairline
With Donovan… he’s a 6’2 scoring combo guard.
Which means his path to winning is the Jamal Murray/Tony Parker copilot to a dominate big, (where he’s the “pg” but really he’s just the secondary scorer to close the show as needed).
i.e. Wemby-Fox, Embiid-Maxey, Jokic-Murray, even the best version of NYK is when KAT is dominant.
In his current role with CLE tho, it’s just not going to work with a smaller, frailer combo guard playing the 1 (Garland) and no dominant scoring big. If anything, he’d be better off in Atlanta in Trae’s place; as a sorta remixed Pacers.

Shai this year is what I thought Kawhi was going to be 6 years ago coming off that Raptors title and having a loaded roster with year 1 LAC. He was also only a year older than Shai is now.
Fukked up how far things went left and his hairline went back

Time to go!!
it’s early and he still has time to improve but Amen hasnt really takened that leap. Year 3 and broadcaster still just talking about his elite athleticism. He either needs to develop that jumper or become a better og. You can’t jsut still be a Swiss Army knife getting that rookie designated max contract. You can’t just excel at being an elite athlete. It’s becoming a trend where at West once a game you asked yourself, how did you miss that shot Amen(at the rim). Happened multiple times this game against Cleveland. There’s nobody with pg experience on the rockets staff or roster(outside of an injured FVV) to help mentor and mold Amen into that position.
