He was very underrated coming out of college. Sometimes I don’t understand what the NBA is looking for.
He’s old enough to understand what he is good at and keeps focusing on that during games. The coaches try to keep him in that role which keeps him looking so good. It is something you can do with an older player.
Him and Kon have been such a treat to this fanbase thus far. Now if only lamelo and BMill can stay healthy.. this really could be our best year in like 10 years.. east is as wide open as it’s gonna get
# SION JAMES
what a beast
Yeah and it shouldn’t have been. 4 time DPOY, dunks leader in the NCAA and never fouled out of a game. When you hear Jeff or Charles talk about him they always say they aren’t surprised and knew this is what he would look like.
I love how mild mannered he looks also. Like looks kind of soft but plays tough. Love it.
The Kalk-ing Gun
Leading the NBA in FG percentage too. Second only to Wemby in blocks. Amazing start to his career

Some people just zero in on any negative a player has, and they define them that way.
What was parroted about him pre and post draft?
“Too slow”
“Can’t stretch the floor”
“Never be more than a backup”
“Too old”
Well he is showing what he does well, and he did SOOOOO much well in college that was obvious if you know what you are looking at.
