Make your take
In context
DabbundoMaybe not his best year last year, but he's only, he's 25.
DabbundoLike he should be entering his prime right now. So I'm trying to figure out like who can make the leap because if you go and I forget who tweeted this chart, but somebody tweeted a chart back in like May of last year during the playoffs. and it was basically that the Darko charts where you can see like the line of efficiency and Jokic had this incredibly high peak and he had already started to come down from that peak last
Dabbundoseason in the second half, especially, there was questions about injuries, but Wemby's ascension had already passed Jokic NSGA by the end of last season.
DabbundoAnd I just kind of think we may look back and be like, well, no shit. Yeah, Wemby won, but like I'm not betting him at two to one in preseason. Like it feels crazy to me with injury risk, minimum games, all that stuff. Like two to one is a crazy bet to tie up for the whole year.
DabbundoSo if I'm trying to bet somebody, I think it's ant.
DabbundoCause I think putting LaMelo in the backcourt, take some of the bulk, you know, he doesn't have to dribble as much. He could be more of a shooter as well. There's less burden on him to carry the team.
DabbundoSo I think I would go ant if I'm looking for like, who's the guy that can make the leap. Cause I think he has a higher ceiling than Tatum higher ceiling than, than Brunson at this point. So I would go, I would go ant, But like I'm not like Raheem said, I'm not dying to bet it.
