Missed the game but figured he’d get alot of run tonite. Know everyone wants to trade him for a bag of chips.

i thought he looked pretty good, but everyone kind of looked great tonight.
He definitely still looked fast. He seems pretty confident in his 3 and he has one sweet drive to the rim.

Looked quick but does not play under control like the other point guards.
Definite trade bait

He looked like an NBA guy. He should have value either as a player here or perhaps as a tradable asset. Dude is fast.

On a night where not a lot went wrong and a lot of players came to win, he looked real average. Nothing good to say and nothing bad either.

He looked better than I remember him being. Looked good enough to think about trading Graham and pick to get Myles Turner. Which is the type of player that would make us a legit title threat. I know we weren’t at full strength but against Milwaukee it was obvious that Giannis would kill us. JV played his best game as a pro and it didn’t matter because we had no one to remotely slow down Giannis.

You just watched a game where we docked him down on the boards and he couldn’t do shite, and you still want to act like we should trade for him?

Kria made me say “Wow” on his drive to the lane from the top of the key.
He’s just so damn fast and he looks to have put on a bit of muscle. He’s still 21 yrs old—I just think the guy will be special one day. It may be another 3-4 yrs tho

Man I thought this site football iq was low but man these basketball takes make my head hurt. Kira look good yesterday dude is so fast and explosive got into the paint at will, his biggest problem is he just not strong enough yet to finish through contact and other teams guards overpower him on defense forcing him to foul. But yesterday he hit a corner 3 had a nice pull up J and made a nice drive for a layup where he looked like a baby Ja Morant on that 1 drive. But what I was most impressed with was he was not lost on defense he made the right rotations and even broke up a ally attempt. But I just think him having to rehab that acl for a year put him even further behind developing the physical strength he desperately needs.

Sports message board sites this tigerdroppings always have questionable takes and dumb posts, but the hate on Kira is pretty strange. He looked solid last night and looks like a legit nba player but for some reason the general consensus is he sucks and is a waste of a roster spot.

Asking where he fits on this roster is very different than saying he sucks. Since he was drafted the roster has changed a good bit and CJ, Jose, and Dyson have all jumped him on the depth chart. I can see him being a fit on the roster long term if Jose's next deal is too expensive, so I don't think he gets put into whatever the next trade is unless they get some value back for him. But it's going to be hard for him to earn minutes on this roster and he probably has more value to a team without as much guard depth.

I think he was asking people who actually watched the game turd, you clearly didn't.

If Kira can develop this year he would give you some new unique lineup options. I’d hold onto him this year at least

My thought process was always to trade Graham in the off-season and get him mins next year and see what you have. He should be further along physically by then.

He looks fast and has some bounce. Thought he had good energy all game. Such a small sample size, it is hard to make any real conclusions. One thing I would like to see is using his speed to obtain an advantage with an eye toward creating for others.
Posted on 12/27/22 at 3:13 pm to Townedrunkard
He looked great considering the situation. Explosive speed, wow.
Posted on 12/27/22 at 3:16 pm to Townedrunkard
He needs to improve his finishes at the rim, finger rolling is just not going to consistently cut it at his size. He's so fricking quick though which can throw a defensive set out of whack.

We need to give him regular rotation minutes, even if it's only 10 minutes per game, to see what he can contribute to the team or if he should be traded. He was just hitting his stride before he got injured. For sure, he is a speed demon.

Just because he played 1 bad game against us doesn’t mean he wouldn’t be a great fit with us. The point was we have no one to stop Giannis from averaging 45-15-8 against us if we make the Finals. It’s all about matchups. Btw Turner had 37 points and 12 rebounds and was playing great defense the first game that we LOST of y’all wanna play that stupid game. I know it’s basically a meme to get MT but he is the cheapest option to fill a gap that we clearly have. In a perfect world I would unload the war chest for Bam but I don’t think Miami would consider trading Bam unless they are going for a blow everything up rebuild

A drive and dish dude like that distributing to Z, BI, CJ, and Jonas would be hard to stop.
