speaking of deandre, that dude is so fun to watch

underrated in terms of how fun a player he is, and how likable he is
He was a top 10 prospect coming out of High School, and everyone on this forum wanted their team to take him in the first round. Guys not underrated.

but i will admit. i used to hate him. he was awful

he found his niche however, and he's a really really nice player

So the Clippers had a top 5 PF in the NBA last year, an improving center who is fun to watch, a top 5 SG in the NBA, and a decent PG between Baron/Mo. Remind me why they were so bad last year? lol, you overrate everyone on that team so much.

They would have really had something going had they kept their pick, taken Kyrie and then amnestyd Baron. Oh well

DeAndre is a fun player to watch. he needs more notoriety, and he'll get it in May...

I'm a diehard and I don't like DeAndre. Might be because I was blasted on here for disagreeing with everyone on how good DeAndre really was during draft night lol.

this is what i like about him

his size
his athleticism
his rebounding and blocking
ability to run the floor
doesnt do too much. knows he cant score, and doesnt try too. he's the new Tyson Chandler, only he learned sooner than Tyson did that he will succeed without scoring

he learned on the fly this past season. thats why his numbers dont wow anybody

had to watch him regularly. but he's perfect next to blake.

IMO the Knicks would be smart to trade Fields. He really struggled post-Melo trade in their offense, he doesn't really fit an offense that plays a ton of iso.
