JONAS PASSING OUT OF THE POST LIKE PRIME VLADE

 

[Capt. Factorial]

That was like two fouls

 

[Sluggah]

Where’s the and one

 

[New Era]

How was that not a foul

 

[Tetsujin]

Travis Kelce was a big pick up for us

Taylor apparently not big on basketball though

 

[iowamcnabb]

King Laravia

 

[Sherds]

How was that not a foul on Jake ffs

JONAS PASSING OUT OF THE POST LIKE PRIME VLADE

Hopefully his tap outs continue to successfully land towards his teammates.

 

[The_Jamal]

In all seriousness Jake flashes the potential but also shows why Memphis walked away at times. One can hope that he appreciates the opportunity that he's being given and likes the team enough that he'll bet on himself by re-signing with an option after a year rather than take a multi-year deal that locks him into a smaller payday.

I think there's a reasonable chance he could sign a 1+1, give himself some injury protection if he gets hurt next year and then hit the market after fully establishing himself as a 2-way wing. I mean, would he get more than like Caleb Martin at 3/27?

 

[Caccia]

"Basket by Jake"@ Ridiculous no-call, though.

 

[Tetsujin]

I hope the Wizards enjoy those seconds and Colby Jones because that’s a bargain for JV

We’ve seen teams be stingy with the MLE now that you can use it in trades (like we did for Jonas) so I’m honestly not sure he’d even get that.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I think that's exactly the play. Hopefully he knows he needs to establish himself somewhere to get that big payday, and taking a chance that would happen on yet another team is a big risk. I'm not worried if he really excels here. That should mean he'll want to stay, and get that big contract later.

Not to get too far ahead of ourselves but if he signed a 1+1 there's a pretty good chance he could replace DeMar in the starting lineup when he opts out after a year, especially if Keegan slides back down to SF.

It’s really clear that he values being wanted and appreciated. He has mentioned several times in different ways he didn’t get the love in Memphis. Fans should be blowing up his socials

I remain impressed that we got someone without giving away a first.

 

[Tetsujin]

HOW DO YOU SAY FLOP IN SERBIAN?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

"LaRavia" is Italian for "lazy foul"

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

Just scanning some old game logs from LaRavia. Dude can get silly hot from three. last year he had an 8-11, couple weeks earlier a 7-9....

 

[Elektrik]

Great effort by JV!

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

HOW DO YOU SAY FLOP IN SERBIAN?

Fljopke.

 

[Sherds]

Disgusting flop by Joker... Glad the didn't call it

 

[DynaPamm]

I don’t know about you guys but I’m too pumped and into this game , that I think I’ll leave it up to all of you without my two cents tonight but I’m loving JV, Keon, Keeeeegan, and Jake

Especially with LA desperate to give away a first for a starting center.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Deebo trying to get Denver back in the game

 

[Tetsujin]

Especially with LA desperate to give away a first for a starting center.

Still not over the Lakers trying to find an athletic lob threat big for Luka to throw to and settling for Alex Len instead

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

You gotta challenge that.

Foul on JV for standing in one place and not moving. Ok buddy.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Looks clean but maybe Denver ball?

 

[Tetsujin]

Doug much better at challenges than Mike “Just vibes” Brown lol

lolol Brown was the worst challenger I've ever seen. I love how he would spend them in the first quarter too, that was awesome.

Contrast with Doug who is one of the best I can recall. Seems like he hits about 60+ percent of them.
