Diawara is the NBA version of the seat filler at the Oscars right now.
Another game for the Brunson lore
Btw Ware is a load. Fuck the heat for hitting on another mis/late first rounder

His defense is solid too. He fights and is mobile
If he progresses, watch out stating next year or soon thereafter

Well let's hope he gets the minutes now. Ten to fifteen a night. He is a young guy he should absorb like a sponge and improve night by night. With the shooting coach maybe he can be a three and D guy by the time the playoffs arrive. Plus he can run a break

Mo only had 4 minutes but that’s 4 more than Yabu
Only took like 8 years to figure out how to do the alley oop play with Mitch but now it’s here

Yeah makes more sense to develop him than to give them to Yabo.

At the very least he is bringing a LONG WING who works really hard on D.
His offense is very limited because the 3-point shot is a on a wing and a prayer plus his drives are ok until he has to make a layup.
He has a very likable persona to me because (like an anti- Cam Reddish) he just seems to be trying/working really hard (+ seems smart).

I think somewhere in the draft thread during Ware's year I may sheepishly said he reminds me visually of Abdul Jabbar.
The kid is so long and so smooth --- another example of different front offices being asleep at the wheel when he probably could have been had with a decent trade package to move up in draft or teams just passed on him.

Need him from a sheer minutes perspective so if Deuce plays maybe a few of those minutes come off of Harts/Mikal/Jalens legs.
Kolek +16 best on team and I think Mitch is 10 of last 11 from FT line (might have bet my house that would never ever happen).
Have to wonder are the 2 (I think it's 2) new shooting coaches actually impacting Hart and Mitch???
One of the bigger developments recently that I don't see people talking about enough is Brunson is starting to finally see the Mitch lob after a P&R. This is what Luka uses to improve every big he plays with. I been wanting him to start doing that for a long time now.

Just watch Diawara's feet. That's the tell. We can see the wingspan, athleticism, glide, an almost perfect NBA build, good instincts on both ends and already a soft touch. But it's the feet that show his upside.
Compared to Hukporti's footwork, it's like comparing Fred Astaire to a waterbug.

KAT has to have one of the lowest ball IQ's among all-stars. He has the talent to do it all and sometimes he does, but he's missing something upstairs.
He won us a playoff game last year all by himself, but he is never the guy I want on the floor with a tie game and a final possession. We have the ClutchMaster for that.
I said he needed a raise a few games ago when I noticed Josh Hart was shooting 40% from 3 but if he also worked with Mitch on his freethrows he needs a life time contract.

Good stuff on the feet.
Huk has good drop footwork but I haven't watching them otherwise. I thought his would be decent but I haven't really payed attention
