Oh they're gonna make each other ALOT of money.

How is he defensively?

[–] mightbetheyear@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I'm having a great time guys

[–] ozairh18@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is why I picked him up in my fantasy basketball league

[–] BrolysFavoriteNephew@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They finally got that center. Between KY, Luka, and him this is going to be an exhausting team to play on defense

[–] kingofgamesbrah@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Is that why they call it pick and roll??

That kid looks 19 going on 34

Speaking of, does anyone play the NYT connections game? It’s better than wordle

[–] _tx@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Once or twice a week, and yes it is better than wordle

[–] third_three@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Connections is the top NYT game hand down

[–] Cyfa@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

this shit is hittin like CRACK

[–] jakekerr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Gotta admit, I knew they worked well, but I had no idea there were this many connections in the first dozen games. Liively's massive wingspan and good hands are a killer combination.

Young Tyson chandler. Just needs to work on his defense which I think he’s going to also be great at.

[–] Pen1sh8r@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

he’s also a great finisher. not all of these are dunks. ridiculous touch from the 19 year old

[–] MattInOK88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's my biggest surprise. He looks like he'll be able to develop more of an offensive game than just dunks, which is what I kind of expected. He definitely has a nice touch around the rim, and if he can ever develop a 3, I could see him becoming maybe upwards of 15-17 ppg with time.

[–] GrapefruitMedical529@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Definitely needs to focus on defense first. This team will go as far as his rim protection and help D can take them lol.

[–] Moe4ver@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That tank was worth it. Media loud mouths have been quiet about it all season.

[–] MattInOK88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hit on a player that filled the biggest hole on this team man and playing so well so early is an awesome development. Dude is like the perfect player that was needed for this team. Figured it'd take longer for him to have an impact like this, but he's growing exceptionally fast.

Looks like we've got our center for the present and future all thanks to the tank.

[–] PillsburyToasters@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lively will be eating good with both Doncic and Irving on the team

[–] Ohtani-Enjoyer@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dwight Powell could never

[–] porncollecter69@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m in awe of this kid. He’s been a stud from day 1.

Whenever he’s on the floor I feel we can win against anyone.

[–] aeiou-y@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

His poise has been amazing. Just worry about the rookie wall hitting him, especially since he played so little in college.

[–] desirox@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s so beautiful seeing Luka with a real vertical threat. Add to that Lively’s pretty advanced passing ability and it’s a portion of why mavs are so hard to guard
