Mohamed Diawara and Kevin Looney have very similar measurables, almost exact actually. Right on down to both having crazy freakish wingspans. I am very curious to see if we experiment with Mo at the 5 in summer league. While Looney has experience, Mo is a cheaper more athletic option with tons of upside. This kid hasn’t even scratched the surface of his potential!yet. Now is the perfect time since he doesn’t have a defined role yet or a path to minutes…..except as a combo F/C. He would slot right into Mitch’s minutes.
I think MO will play some smallball 5 but we still need two centers. I think Lebron could play some small ball 5 also.
Want another small ball 5?
I did say yesterday Brown could push for even more of a stun and gun offense with small ball lineups and that Mo's minutes as a big wing and occasional frontline defender are going way up as long as he performs.
I thought this thread was gonna be about Sochan.
Somebody please show me one example of CAA and Rich Paul having even the smallest amount of mutual respect for each other
If there wasn’t that, I’d say the pairing could be legendary

Small example, Jordan Clarkson. Plus, a couple of years ago the two agents per reported met to iron out differences
We still need to add 2 legit centers but I can see playing OG and Mo together and getting away with it.

Didn't Rich Paul use to work for Leon?

Everyone used to work for Leon
Not getting out of the east wihout one more big. Not saying we don't go small more.
Not ready to panic, Not aligned with the prices of quality either. Not saying there is premium for bigs, but boston paying for a mentally challanged big with no offensive chops, can't hit a foul shot, and often injured back up as they did is perhaps excess?
Dinosaurs like BroPez and Al Horford still roam the earth.
Nobody can fault a FO that just one a chip for being neglectful.
We can’t go into the season with one rim protector on the entire roster even if we play extreme press small ball

Oh I forgot a young Mutombo was going to magically become available in September
We are going to see quite a bit of OG and Diawara at the 5 next season.

If Diawara plays well at the 5 it will give him more time and allow Dadiet to get time at the 3/4. Perhaps if Mo does well we include him in a trade for a center. Then we use Dadiet to replace Diawara as the future wing. In the same way Deuce was in the wings for when we traded IQ and Grimes
