Why? Once he starts sticking his threes, getting his rotations down and understanding how to let his freakish length guard almost any SG/SF/PF, he's a rotation player.TRex wrote: View Post

I also think Bruno can/should be a rotation player next season.Comment

generally i agree with your sentiment, but what do you mean by "the skills are not"? He has shown a lot more skills than I would have expected given the circumstances around us drafting him.LJ2 wrote: View Post
Seems to me like somehow he's gone from clueless to "looks like a fairly inexperienced prospect" in 1 year. I'd say thats a pretty damn good improvement, honestly, considering how useless his D-league time was.Comment

yeah I get a little confused myself when discussing players. What do we mean when classifying certain guys
I mean I sort of take a holistic approach to a player
I look at size.
Does the player have prototypical size for a position?
I think it is fair to say that Bruno has excellent size for a wing player.
Does the player have strength at the position?
Not yet. But his frame can certainly support it. Needs improvement there.
What are the intangibles?
I think you could argue work ethic here
Is the player naturally good at anything?
Shooting, specifically the 3 pt shot.
Where is the player at in terms of BBIQ?
As I recently read somewhere around here. He is reactive still and not proactive. But as a long term project that is expected.
Experience is the greatest teacher when it comes to IQ. You really need to get your ass kicked over and over again until you develop a real distaste for losing.
What level is the person's motor at?
He doesn't take plays off, is active. Seems to have an above average motor and wants to succeed, but I wouldn't say a high level motor is an asset that he possesses
Character?
Is the person a good dude to have around? By all accounts he is. This is important because if I'm building a team I have a strict no shit heads rule (regardless of talent, but that's my own personal point of view and I acknowledge it has flaws)For still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatarComment

I agree 100%. The thing that encourages me more even is that he has improved this much with no real experience. For some reason I feel like he could be an X-factor come playoffs. Try not to over-react to that, im not saying that he will log 20+ minutes and score 15 points a game. We saw it last year with otto porter and Paul Pierce at the 4, Washington had some guys step up in ways we never answered. I think Bruno could be a guy coming off the bench that opposing teams have trouble answering. They won't have him scouted well and he will likely improve exponentially with more experience in the d-league. We see how he blocks peoples shots simply because they don't know who the guy is. This is an added bonus to letting him developed in the d league. If he plays even just <10 min per game in the NBA for most of the year teams will have an idea of how he plays and while he will get better, he will benefit just as much, if not more in the d league. Also, when it comes playoffs and games matter, teams won't be prepared for him at all.KHD wrote: View PostComment

Everything Bruno Caboclo
We have a log jam at the 3 position. James Johnson, Patterson and t Ross should be traded. I can live with mistakes from Bruno and Powell.

So in trading the starting PF, a backup SF, and the backup SG, what positions are coming back in order to clear up this SF 'log jam'? I guess only PG's and C's?grindhouse wrote: View Post"We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi LeonardComment
