Allen having fun at Blake’s expense

Honestly feels like unless Okoro happens to be in the right spot on offense to grab a rebound he useless.

Anytime we run a set or play he just stands in the corner.

Good start - nice to have rim protection back!

He didn’t “happen” to be in the right spot. He crashed the board and got the rebound in between two Nets. Did that four times last game too, but that doesn’t fit the narrative.

Really like seeing Allen get some good looks and touches early.

I feel like there's a lot of standing around, not just by Okoro.

Rebounding is definitely a strength for the kid. Just can't shoot.

What's the "narrative" exactly? That he's horrific on offense? Because that's no narrative; it's supported by every stat available. That's nice he crashed the boards and got some rebounds but it doesn't offset everything else.

Guy drafted top 5 and he knows how to get a rebound.

Great he can't shoot, can't dribble, and can't defend.

I’m glad JA is back

LOVE 3

Gonna be one of those nights where easy bunnies bounce out.

Narrative is that he’s useless and contribute nothing. I agree he’s having issues; it’s also fair to give credit for good plays. Crashing the offensive boards is a plus.

Okoro with some great activity so far. Appreciate the work he's doing on the offensive board as well as trying to get his hands on some balls. Fingers crossed this start is going to give him some confidence, even though he missed a bunny.

 

[Soar]

Biggest issue with Okoro that I honestly don't see any part of his game that has improved from last year.

Last year wasn't all bad.

But there's almost no measurable improvement anywhere in his game...especially on offense.

That seems alarming... especially for a guy touted as a gym rat type.
