  1. One of my biggest fears for the future of the team is not having enough guys to guard the guys we need to guard in the east. Giannis/Kat/Embiid (maybe)/Bam. Looks like we got our answer.

  2. Brad really had an incredible offseason. Made the owners happy while giving us a couple guys to get excited about. It’s been nice just watching them play without having much emotion about the final result.

  3. We’re somehow 4th in SRS, 6th in net rating. Our defense (minus the rebounding) has been stellar. I know it’s an extremely small sample size, but defensive rating is usually consistent. We absolutely can be competitive if we remain healthy 

  4. It’s actually impossible to not enjoy him play

    An energy guy who brings great defense and a bit shooting, attacking the rim, causing disruptions. Everything you love, he brings it.

  5. I thought his emotion when he got called for that BS foul when he went straight up showed he’s a gamer. Lock him up long term, he’s a piece of the puzzle.

  6. I was about to be contrarian and point out that Mobley looked like crap every time he tried to score in this game… but he was somehow 6/7 from the field when Minott was NOT the primary defender??!?!

  7. I remember when we played at MN last year and this dude was all over the place dunking on us, I’m like who is this guy? it was Minot! He has size,length, versatility, athleticism and plays with great energy. Even tho it’s an ugly shot, he seems to be a decent enough shooter from 3, if he can develop that 3 ball, we might just have something here. Great low risk high reward pickup by Stevens. At worst he is a rotational wing/big when JT comes back

  8. I happened to pull Minott’s rookie card when I got a pack of bball cards. Does anyone know the best way to get his to sign it?

  9. To be fair, two of those looks were pretty open looks from 3 and Mobley just bricked them. He didn’t have a great night.

  10. My biggest concern with him is his ugly shooting stroke. Idk how you become a consistent shooter with that ugly of a shot.

  11. Minot is one of the reasons this season is going to be fun. I remember a lot of really good players got a chance in the league because the 76ers were so ass they were bringing guys in nobody else was looking at.

    Robert Covington, Richard Holmes, TJ McConnell, and Jerami Grant were all guys who came out of the process as real players.

  12. I haven’t heard his name said live….is it “min-ot”, “minnow”, “my-knot”? or…?
