Actually, yes. You must've missed it but i, for one, did express concern when the training videos with coach remy came out. I noticed that his shooting form/stroke was, for the nth time tweaked. We know shooting depends a lot on muscle memory so, there, that's what happens when ones shooting form gets tweaked so often

add to that, Kai is shooting as a lefty - i can't remember a lefty (ginobili, redd, *harden, Bosh, i think David Robinson is also a lefty) who is even a below average shooter...
Based on Kai's latest preseason game, his 3s and free-throws, it seems his shot don't have that enough arc - kumbaga matulis na masyado yung bitaw ni Kai

We don't know how many minutes he'll play though. And if he's on a short leash he's gonna be hesitant to chuck it when it's he's lowest percentage shot.

Weird though as there's not a lot of people who can block his shot. He should take his time and not rush

I agree... Kai also have that good awareness and timing with his shots - he should never be bothered being blocked.
Kai is also a LEGIT 7 footer;
LEGIT in the sense that - with his recent preseason game @NBL it proved how BIG is KAI - Taipan Bigs were good atleast of 6'9 - 6'10s and you can sense they were affected by Kai's pure size and presence.
 
Oh wow , Import Withers and Kai will actually wear a uniform (suit up), if it was a regular season game., what a suprising revelation

We know what happened during Kai's first game. I will let Kai's game speak and I am expecting much better performance moving forward.
 
Why even mention the PBA when talking about Sotto? Sotto hasn't played a single PBA game. Tsk. Tsk.

Ay nako, hinding-hindi yan mawawala. It's come to the point where the JP people who haven't seen the game are commenting on it negatively towards Thirdy. :rolleyes: But then again, San-en won't let him go. On that point, we have nothing to worry about.

Obviously, the prejudice is there. Pati PBA nilait pa nung puting unggoy na yan lol matatangkad lng sila dun sa NBL pero karamihan banban. Pero wag ka, meron dito sa IBN mga feeling foreigner kung makapang mallit sa homegrowns

You think? Even if he follows up his last performance with a couple more of the same resulting to wins, plus apologize again and again for his recent behavior (unsportsman-like, but he's just too passionate)? You know, it would really suck if he get's cancelled there in JPN because of his outburst.

I am not talking about japanese people as a whole but those that already followed the journey of thirdy in b.league. those that already know thirdy.

It only took an uninformed opinion from a basketball nobody for you to resort to dropping racist remarks.

Making stupid baseless comments is one thing. This has nothing to do with basketball.

Cancel culture is not as big in Japan as it is in the west. As long as Thirdy doesn't go over the line, he will be fine. The San-en fans still love him.

Wow what a weird snowflake. Can you really say its not a fact that Australia was full of convicts from the british islands? Snowflakes like you tend to make everything racist, when its just a fact about their demographics.

And for the record "What do you expect from a continent full of the descendants of convicts" could either mean "There is bound to be a bum with problems in that group of people" which I intend to relay or "Everyone there is a descendant of convicts" which may be what you refer to as racist.

Your sentiments clearly showed which one your brain picks, seems you're the racist one because that is how you want to think about it.

Full of convicts really? What percentage of the population?

You just called a whole continent made up of multiracial and multi cultural people convicts because you got triggered by a comment coming from a single Australian. Who's the real snowflake?
