2020-2021 ROSTER TALK: Archived

Also are there KP haters that also are pro-Powell in the starting lineup? If so you need to understand that KP as a star requires Powell on the bench. Then his full offensive game is unleashed and he isn't just a spacer.

Again, it's as if you didn't read a word of what I wrote. I'm struggling to find your train of thought and how it might relate to today's conversation. This is certainly not a rebuttal to anything I wrote, not by a long shot. 

I would assume that you're addressing someone else, but since I'm the only one bringing up the idea that KP might not be good enough to be the 2nd guy we're hoping he is, I can't imagine who that would be. Then again, you must be talking to someone else, because I'm far, far from being a "KP hater." 

The most likely explanation, I suppose, is that you're simply responding to something you didn't take the time to read.

I wasn't directing that comment at you. I did read your longer post and I get what you are saying but I disagree. I realize KP isn't Dirk (altho most players aren't?) but I love his game and absolutely believe he's a max-level player. We didn't get to see 100% KP yet but I think we will get there. He isn't a guard and Rick doesn't like post-ups so its unlikely you are going to see a ton of action run through him like you might see Embiid get. But that's okay bc I don't think that style of basketball wins championships anymore anyway. I think KP is as much a star as any modern center can be a star. Certainly more than Gobert. Jokic is the best center in the league and I think KP is close. KAT, Embiid, Bam, Ayton don't do anything for me. I like KP's well rounded game and believe he is a star worth max-money.
