“These days”… put some respect on the podfather, Bill Simmon’s name. He’s been calling them stocks for decades
The kids? We were calling it stocks 10+ years ago
Only the kids that are streets behind.
Bleals is streets ahead
Nba has so much talent right now it’s absolutely ridiculous.
When are they gonna blow it up and build around him?
I'd be happy with trading Pascal for a guard prospect and some picks. Everyone else can fit though I would also be open to moving GTJ if you get something else back for him.
He’ll be a great 3rd option or 4th option for a championship contender in his prime
Good player.
That's how I feel about Bam.
I mean, he'd already be a great 3rd/4th option on most contenders right now
I predict that Scottie Barnes, barring any injury, will be an All-Star this year.
I predict that the Boston Celtics, will make the playoffs this year.
the regret of drafting Scoot (who I already dropped) instead of Ausar in Nba Fantasy. smh
I drafted for my brother since he was away, I got Chet cos i first round picked Shai, but I did figure he'd be good. I wanted Scottie but just missed out.
But then I picked up both Thompsons and Sharpe in the final three rounds, just cos I figured they're fun athletes for bro to keep an eye on... I did good.
So his stocks are going up?
Wemby being second in the entire NBA in stocks after like 10 games played total in the league is insane......
Long arms equals stocks
HE’S GETTING STRONGERRRRRR
he's also leading the league in chromosomes
i was just looking for the full list of Stocks leaders, but stumbled on the NBA "Hustle" leaderboards.
Includes things like loose balls recovered, contested 2s, contested 3s, deflections, Screen assists, etc (and the PER 36 versions of these)
pretty interesting breakdowns that give some credit to the guys that dont always show up in the traditional box scores
EDIT: NBA Hustle Leaders
Malachi Flynn being at the top of any league-wide positive list is a shocker
The new Kawhi.
Over AD and victor is crazy
Stocks!!
Stockie Barnes!
It feels like he's been blocking a 3 every game too. Darko has really unlocked him letting him play closer to the basket and in help defense more
Scottie in help defense is scary, no one is safe
People who don’t follow the league closely tend to have low predictions for rookie blocks. It’s not uncommon at all for rookies to be at or near career highs. I expected Wemby to be at this level right away. Walker Kessler had a higher block percentage last season than Wemby does now.
Seems a bit misleading, AD has one less game played so would actually be the leader in per game values
3 rookies in this list God damn this class is stacked
I got the wrong twin
Wemby, Ausar, Chet
3 rookies in the top 5 is insane
Also using totals instead of per game feels… fishy…
Stockie Barnes
Lol and lots of fans says didn’t draft Franz Wagner was a mistake
So many young dudes thats crazy
People should be looking at Gobert with his contract and limitations on offense...
My fantasy leagueeeee
Oh would you look at that, 3/5 are on my fantasy team
