AD
Him & Boogie are gonna do well together, but don't think Brow's gonna reach his max on that kind of team. I'd love to see him in a situation with shooters around him.
KAT
The kid's nice & I think another year under Thibs + Gibson/Butler there, his defense is gonna take big steps up. His long ball is a threat but once he gets that % closer to 37/38 he's gonna be unstoppable.
Gasol
His combo of defense/offense is just too high to go lower. he's lost a little on defense since he's focused more on scoring, but i like what him/conley can do especially if JaMychal Green is an above average starter.
Boogie
His talent is top 3 & his production is gonna be solid with AD next to him. Can easily see him going for like 26/13/4/2/1 on 55/37/80 shooting. I think he's learning to max out his defensive talent. Moving his feet/quick hands/strong base like Gasol.
Jokic
His passing is another level, he can score at all three levels, & he's a good rebounder. Love when they run him out of the high post with guys like harris/barton/chandler feasting on back cuts. unlike other great passing bigs (divac/bogut come to mind) he can get buckets down low & has a solid three ball. he just needs to get in better shape for the full year (seems like he actually gained weight last season) to take on the extra workload. He could learn a lot from studying with the Gasol brothers.
His post game isn't as athletic as young Pau, but those lakers years are within reach, plus how he uses his length to defend the rim. he can learn from marc's high post play on offense & how he moves his feet so well on defense.
Gobert
fantastic defender, better than i thought as a facilitator, just needs the right team around him
Embiid - the truth. i'm giving him the benefit of the doubt on the foot, cuz fuck it, why not just support the guy. offensively he's not Hakeem like they had originally tagged him, but he's top 3 scorer down low. good vision, can hit the 3, protect the rim? MVP in his future
DJ - knows what he does well & focuses on that. if only his FT wasn't so horrendous
Porzingis - should be getting heavy run at the 5. needs to develop his wing game on offense (KD/Dirk would work for him), & just continue to get stronger
Myles Turner - think he's gonna make a big jump this year.
