2021-2022 AROUND the NBA: GSW Champs [ARCHIVED]

[Jommybone]

To me, players have to play the game. The game within the game. Some of it is conformity when necessary. They have to accept coaching. Accept standards and expectations. Some players can get away with not doing that, but they're showing something else. Potential doesn't mean actual. Potential is future. Most teams are in win-now modes. Trying to establish a culture. Even Sacramento. Having Daddy, in the form of his agent, speak in his behalf is not saying anything. His play, and his attitude will speak. Show me what you can do. On the court with your effort. Right now, Bagley is just another talented athlete in America. Question is, is he a basketball player that can fit in with a team? At the pro level.

Bagley will become an RFA next summer with no other teams knowing what he can do. Sacto can drive his value to near nil and then match whatever pittance is offered him. It’s a shit move, and the agent is the right person to call them out for it. 

Maybe I’m overreacting. But that’s how I see it.
