I didn't know Noel could hit mid range shots :ohhh:

Mitch is gonna have to earn that starting role.

I think of RJ as a project but it's at least nice that he has some confidence in his shot, and he'll start making them in year 3 or 4.

Being able to pop out for a jumper is big but I though Mitch was slightly better on defense because of how disruptive he is (Mitch's talent on that end is incredible). Regardless of who starts though, it's nice to have 48 minutes of elite rim protection out there, it's a great luxury that most teams don't have. It's a lot easier to play with trust in your teammates and try and make plays when you constantly have a defensively elite big man behind you.

It comical how good at blocking shots Mitch is. But Noel is the better defender. (Obviously he’s more experienced) but he’s in better position all the time and just understands basketball more than Mitch does. Mitch is still playing off instincts which is why his upside is so high because just a basic understanding of basketball offense would make him an ELITE defender despite not getting as many blocks.
