Anadolu Efes 2022/23

I don't think Ataman will let Dunston go. I think he can use him next year as a 8-12 minutes backup. About Micic; me personally don't think he will leave. Of course anything's possible but he's clever and never accepts being 2nd or 3rd option after 2 EL glories... on the other hand, question is; any NBA team needs him or not..? We'll get the answers when time comes.

I don't understand this underestimation of Pleiss. I mean guy outplayed two of the best 5 EL centers in one single(the most important) game. In any world and mind he can't be 3rd center in any team

But some people simple can't admit their mistakes and bad estimates of good players

You cant use Pleiß and Dunston in the same roster. One will go and Pleiß is younger has a better skill set (shooting bigs are rare). I would be very very surprised if both stayed.

It would be a big mistake. How old is Dunston? 37? I mean enough is enough.

 

[Worrax2]

Satoransky.

Only 1..? This is today's news, but till today what was your options for example except Satoransky?

Dunston should stay as back up, his experience and character are priceless

I also think Micic will stay and he won't make a mistake. He is not in early 20s anymore to make fresh start

Reyes played till 41 if'm not wrong and i think Dunston has enough physcal power to take care as back up 10 minutes. We will need, imo... about Pleiss, he's also not too young, 33-34 something. With an athletic good rebounder (a newcomer) these trio can handle the season well enough i think...

 

[Toruko2]

Then you change your style... where is the problem when you have Clyburn? You can create more from the low post. Clyburn is a beast from the low post, can defend easily 4 positions is a beast creating for himself from the low post. Shots can be difficult from time to time but still it would work.

A second ball handler with some shooting is always available. Payton Siva, Alex Perez, even Canaan would be enough or if you want someone who can defend and handle the ball a big Kenan Sipahi is your man.

This doesnt mean that these guys can replace Micic but you dont have to play the same style.

No, I think in a different way. Pleiß staying is ok but Dunston should retire and Efes should get Mike Tobey. He is a perfect fit and another rebounding big who can stay in front of forwards and defend in the low post.

Everything's possible of course but if i have to choose, i won't risk and keep Micic. By the way, replacing Micic any of these guys, i would prefer Satoransky of course.

I like Tobey so much but not sure if he can make a Dunston effect..

 

[zubitos2]

I like Tobey so much but not sure if he can make a Dunston effect..

I suppose that Tobey will be Moerman's replacement.

 

[Toruko2]

No, he is the better replacement of Sanli. A guy who can role to the rim, play some pick and pop and defend in the low post. Actually, he is the better Sertac Sanli, legs are much faster. For defense and rebounding you need someone like Jalen Raynolds but I wouldnt sign him in 100 years because of his problematic character thats why someone like him.

 

[Worrax2]

I suppose that Tobey will be Moerman's replacement.

He's a guy something like four and half. Not a real rebounder and not a real 4. If i remember well..? I think Toruko can say more about him.

 

[Toruko2]

He can play both positions. Basically he does everything what Sanli does but just better because more athletic and faster.

So for the next season your 4-5 players are something like;
Tobey, Pleiss, Güven, Singleton, Saybir + a newcomer...
Am i wright?

Pretty much, yes.

Yes, I am still insisting Saybir is ready physically and should start taking minutes in the EL. I know I claim it every season but this time his body is really ready although his shots still look broken but you have to take risks somewhere and with Clyburn there is someone who can play both forward positions. Come with Saybir from the bench and if he doesnt work, sign another guy.

 

[janketa2]

You Efes's fans should thank god that Toruko isn't in your management, because you would be in Belgrade without Micic, Pleiss and Singleton, 3 of 4 main players would be fired during season But hey, Saybir is ready

Bring back to Fener Kokoskov with Toruko assistant.......Janketa is going to jump from Bosphorus Bridge.....

This #5 position is as weak as today's... or let's say no safe. But if you say; Tobey, Pleiss and Dunston, that makes more sense. Güven can't even have a single minute but Dunston can give you more power and athletism at least 10 minutes.
