Why Cooper Flagg will change the NBA | Slam N Jam

And Matt Ishbia seems like he wants to continue to try and do this, but it also seems like they're probably moving Kevin Durant this summer, you know, based off of all reporting out there. Right. So, you know, how, how far do they contend with,

moving kevin durant right like what do they move him for how do you go about retooling the roster that's the first question assuming it looks similar to what it is right now like ryan kalkbrenner makes a lot of sense to me for them uh a big dude who can play in drop coverage who can play minutes basically immediately who is really sharp and has potential to shoot from three a little bit

But more than anything, he's just excellent with angles. He's super long. He's been one of the best defense players in college basketball for four years now. Outstanding, outstanding player. I mean, like around 30, like if Nick Clifford fell there, he'd be valuable. Janai Broom is another center that could work there. Yeah. You know, I really like Jojo Tugler.

So Jojo Tugler is, I don't know, six foot seven, six foot eight with a seven, six ish wingspan, like something like that. Oh, the tug man. He is the best defensive player in college basketball, point blank. Okay. Like no questions asked to me. I saw him play against Auburn. He like blocked a shot in a help, like in his momentum, took him out of bounds, like beneath the baseline.

He gets up the offense. Alabama gets the rebound and like swings it out, you know, twice onto the opposite side. Wing from where he was gets up. Mark Sears shoots a three. He rotates like 35 feet all the way out to Mark Williams after or Mark Sears. I'm sorry. After blocking the shot and blocks the jumper. And I'm like, what in the world just happened here? Like, like how, how did he do this?

It's what it's like. It is the craziest defensive play ever. I have seen non-Victor Wembanyama addition in five years. Wow. He's unbelievable on that end. The issue is from an NBA perspective, there's no offensive game right now. It's really, really tricky to figure out what the fit is. He's a great offensive rebounder. He will occasionally make a three here and there.
