SHAI GILGEOUS-ALEXANDER WELL BETTER KNOWN AS SGA IS LISTED AT 6’5 AND WEIGHS 180ILBS.

SGA JOINS THIS INCREDIBLE LIST OF PLAYERS TO PULL THIS OFF:

HE HAS ADDED A LOT OF BALL FAKES LIKE HIS TEAMMATE (CHRIS PAUL) TO HIS GAME. HIS SHOOTING HAS DRASTICALLY IMPROVE ALONG WITH HIS DECISION MAKING WITH THE BALL. SGA IS NOW IN HIS 2ND YEAR. ONLY TIME WILL TELL HOW GREAT HE WANTS TO BE.

DETROIT PISTONS BASKETBALL – TIME TO BLOW IT UP

January 13, 2020January 13, 2020bballscholar

THE DETROIT PISTONS HAVE BEEN ONE OF THOSE TEAMS THAT HAVE HOVERING AROUND MEDIOCRITY FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW.

IF THEY MAKE THE PLAYOFFS THEY ARE USUALLY AN EASY OUT FOR THE TOP TEAMS TO KNOCK OFF IN THE FIRST ROUND. IN THE OTHER SCENARIO, IF THEY MISS THE PLAYOFFS THEY USUALLY FINISH AROUND 9 THROUGH 12. AND THAT IS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF NOT TO GOOD BUT GOOD ENOUGH TO GET A TOP DRAFT PICK!

PLAYERS TO TRADE:

*TEAMS WOULD WANT HIM INCLUDED FOR A TRADE PACKAGE.

BLAKE GRIFFIN:

AGE – 30

REGGIE JACKSON

AGE – 29

MARKIEFF MORRIS

AGE – 30

DERRICK ROSE

AGE – 31

*LUKE KENNARD

AGE – 26

*LANGSTON GALLOWAY

AGE – 28

1 CHEST PIECE TO KEEP:

I WOULD KEEP ANDRE DRUMMOND. HE HAS A LOT OF VALUE AND HE IS 26. ANDRE DRUMMOND CAN STILL IMPROVE VASTLY. I THINK IT IS TIME TO GIVE HIM THIS TEAM SO HE CAN RUN WITH THESE YOUNG PLAYERS!

WHAT TO WANT BACK:

DRAFT PICKS & EXPIRING CONTRACTS. THAT CAN BE DONE THIS YEAR!

YOUNG ASSETS:

THE DETROIT PISTONS HAVE A LOT OF YOUNG TALENT. GIVE THEM MORE MINUTES AND SEE WHAT YALL GOT FOR THE FUTURE.

MY THOUGHTS:

NOT VERY IMPRESSED BY BOTH PLAYERS LOW SHOOTING WOOS BUT THEY HAD THE BALL IN THEIR HANDS 90% OF THE TIME. DUE TO THEIR HIGH VOLUME OF SHOOTING I WOULD RATE THEIR PERFORMANCES AS A B-.

TRAE YOUNG HAD THE BETTER GAME BUT JAMES HARDEN LEFT WITH THE WIN. 🤷🏾‍♂️

BY THE WAY IF YOU GUESSED IT , NOT MUCH DEFENSIVE WAS PLAYED IN THIS GAME.

AFTER THIS GAME THIS WILL BECOME A NEW STATISTIC. I BELIEVE PLAYERS WILL WANT TO TOP THIS PERFORMANCE!

Derrick Rose- 12TH season

These three players brought it back a decade! Showing flashes of their greatness in the 4th. Where the game really matters. To show once again that you can they have value.

Each player had a huge impact in the fourth quarter.

Derrick Rose & Carmelo Anthony hit game winners!

Chris Paul scoring 20 points in the 4th to lead his team to victory!

Which player will win a title first?

January 3, 2020January 4, 2020bballscholar

MICHAEL PORTER JR SET A CAREER HIGH IN POINTS VS THE INDIANA PACERS.

👇🏽👇🏽

HE IS A WALKING BUCKET! AND OVER THE LAST FEW GAMES HE HAS GOTTEN A LOT MORE COMFORTABLE WITH HIS ROLE OFF THE BENCH. I LIKE HOW THE BENCH UNIT LIKES TO FEED HIM CONSTANTLY.

HE IS 6’10 AND LAST NIGHT HE SHOWN HOW EASILY IT IS FOR HIM TO KNIFE THROUGH THE PAINT TO SCORE OVER SMALLER DEFENDERS.

MICHAEL PORTER SHOT AN INCREDIBLE 9/9 WITHIN THE PAINT.

DENVER IS SLOWLY GIVING HIM MORE MINUTES. I THINK HE IS READY TO GET AT LEAST 20-25 MINUTES PER GAME NOW. LAST NIGHTS PERFORMANCE WAS NOT A GLIMPSE AT ALL. THAT IS HIS GAME AND HE IS ABLE TO BRING THAT ENERGY EACH AND EVERY GAME!

HIS LAST 2 GAMES:
