It's interesting that Chet was out all last year and is now having his rookie season with Wemby. What an incredible rookie class this is. Let‘s hope they both stay healthy and have a long career - always a bit of a question mark with these ultra tall and thin guys.

Appears not. I mentioned him when we discussed different defensive metrics over the summer. In a small sample size metrics like on/off and DFG% ranked among the best in the league. Hornets defense was 4.3 points better with him on the floor. He barely qualified with only 50% of games played but his DFG% in the paint ranked first in the league among centers. There is no way that he could sustain a -17.8 DFG% in a bigger role but I would be tempted to at least give it a try.

Wasn't aware of the off court stuff. Stay away from crazy... RE: AROUND the NBA: Devin Vassell signs 5/yr146M extension w/Spurs - Chicagojk - 10-11-2023 That is sad on Kai Jones. Hope he did not throw away his career away. If he needs help, hope he gets it. Let’s hope the mavs draft this past summer is better then the Hornets 21 drat. Bougknight 9 and Kai Jones at 19. Ouch Charlotte may have bigger issues with Miles Bridges though.

He was pushing for a trade for some time as he was unhappy with Williams and Richards ahead of him on the position (with some other vets like Plumlee in the past seasons). He never really got a chance in Charlotte. His "demands" reached much uncomfortable levels, publicly trashing his teammates (saying he is better than them) and similar. It was pretty much obvious that the end result will be Charlotte cutting him while he will have a very hard time getting a new chance in the league. In any case, Mavs have their development center. Not sure he would find any more happines in Dallas than he had in Charlotte, related to his playing time and opportunity.

RE: AROUND the NBA: CHA waives Kai Jones| Miles Bridges has warrant for arrest - Ghost of Podkolzin - 10-12-2023 Valid.... In a nutshell: LukaDončićKnicksJersey.jpeg It says a lot about the state of the Dallas Mavericks that we're almost universally turning a solid offseason into urban legend simply because they didn't do anything that resembles senseless self-sabotage. Please don't let the actually good stuff get lost in the snark. The Mavs had a quality, bordering on smart, summer. But their biggest offseason development still ends up being Luka Dončić's carbohydrate intake or the arrival of Grant Williams, who is neither a top-50 player nor, despite what some would have you believe, a true "wing" defender. Optimists will claim sentiment on this Mavs core is too low. Perhaps that's true. The Luka-Kyrie Irving experience was more effective (on offense) than advertised. And you absolutely, positively, without question can count on Kyrie continuing to be available. Other questions abound. Will this team get stops, like, at all? Is Josh Green as good as Twitter user @WatchesBBallWantsYouToKnowIt says? Is Jason Kidd's apparent plan to lean on Derrick Lively and Olivier Maxence-Prosper out of the gate a harbinger of growth, lack of faith in the alternatives or a feeble attempt at proving how hip he is and that, yes, he too wears crocs with socks to the gym? Is letting people Luka is close to behind the scenes leave, um, a good idea? The top end outcome for this team, assuming all goes according to plan, is probably fourth to sixth in the West and a rollicking one-to-two round postseason cameo. Is that good enough to dissuade my editors from asking me to write about Luka Dončić trade destinations six months from now? Who's to say, really? RE: AROUND the NBA: CHA waives Kai Jones| Miles Bridges has warrant for arrest - omahen - 10-12-2023 Not looking good at all https://twitter.com/TheDunkCentral/status/1712500431434174675 RE: AROUND the NBA: CHA waives Kai Jones| Miles Bridges has warrant for arrest - DallasMaverick - 10-12-2023 (10-12-2023, 03:04 PM)omahen Wrote: Not looking good at all Lots of anger, lots of hatred. Uncontrolled. The fact that he couldn't abide by the terms of his restraining order is even more concerning. A one-time flare-up of anger might be excused. Reminds me of Ja Morant's stupid decision, the public apology, and then a repeat of the same stupidity. Seems much tougher to correct those errors. They might be characterized as "habitual". |
