I disagree. He makes things happen. He draws fouls, gets to the FT line and makes them.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:21 pmI mostly mean Okogie shouldn’t play anymore.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:11 pmDifferent roles and positions.

He was trying to post up while moving away from the passer.

That was very typical of Ayton.
Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:22 pmYeah Book still looks little off. It’s because we brought him back 1 game to early.
Yeah, he's been one of the only guys to actively pursue rebounds. Pretty much every other non-Center waits for the ball to bounce before trying to grab it.Superbone wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:23 pmI disagree. He makes things happen.

Meh, he just has two points I like his activity too but he just too offensively limited. I trust Little more offensively and I would like to see if Metu 40% 3pt shooting from preseason is real.Superbone wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:23 pmI disagree. He makes things happen.

Yeah, I think it's bad for us if we pull Okogie out of the rotation and destroy his confidence. At his best Okogie is really valuable.Superbone wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:23 pmI disagree.

I'm pretty sure that was scripted.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:36 pmThe dude in the hamburger costume wanted to talk shit and celebrate early and other hamburger guy won. That’s what you get for taking your eyes off the prize and not finishing the job!
As it currently stands, Okogie wouldn’t see the light of day in any playoff rotation. I just want to see what other guys on the team got.Mori Chu wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:33 pmYeah, I think it's bad for us if we pull Okogie out of the rotation and destroy his confidence.

No. Don’t ruin the illusion for me. I need to know there’s hamburger justice in this cruel world.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:37 pmI'm pretty sure that was scripted.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:36 pmThe dude in the hamburger costume wanted to talk shit and celebrate early and other hamburger guy won.

I don't think that's true. He's still probably the best perimeter defender we've got.Wally_West wrote: ↑Tue Nov 21, 2023 8:38 pmAs it currently stands, Okogie wouldn’t see the light of day in any playoff rotation.

Different roles and positions. Metu would be more likely to take minutes from Yuta or Little, but as we just saw, he's really the 3rd Center.
