Kai Sotto Thread

[Kaireem]

there's just no excuse to get only 1 reb in 15 minutes if you're 7'3

Im sure PeeZones can give you 100 reasons/excuses.

Game vs Mexico after 3 quarters, Sotto has the most minutes with 20. But has only 2 rebounds. And team-worst minus 10. With one quarter to go, I hope he grabs more rebounds.

2 years from now... maybe a 23 year old KS thoughtfully chasing his NBA dream can be seen playing in Mexico Basketball Pro League - He will be much much closer (geographically) to NBA for sure.

Im back boys.haha where is greenarcher maybe he turned cow sh*t green in his crab hole hiding for now and is waiting for another Kai bad game.haha

I cant really understand the mindset of those who rejoice with other's failure. That trait is really too common for pinoys and a testament of the filth that ails our country.

How on earth can someone conclude that a 21yr old wouldn't improve?lol centers take time to develop and it is a given that Kai will have difficulties playing against way older opponents as a pro. lakers castleton, landale, cooks and others were still playing college boys at that age.

Im not like you who hid like a coward after your boytoy got abused in the SL despite you claiming his style is "better fit" for the NBA.

-20 and -13 +/- and a 1 rebound performance. How's your Larry Bird Basketball IQ boytoy doing? Not fit for the NBA, not fit for FIBA.

I rejoice seeing all your BS claims and excuses go down the drain. You needed weeks to come up with your new lame excuse? LOL

[PeeZones]

lol Kai needs to play like a monster and should be consistently on MVP mode regardless of age for him to satisfy the crabs standards.haha no excuses just always mvp monster numbers that should reflect 30pts 30rebs 15blks every game.hahaha

[JOI2dWorld]

your boy is being outrebounded by a 6'1 guard and laid egg against Montenegro and you blamed again the coach by not using him properly, even if he played more than 20 minutes today and only managed to get 2 rebounds

Talk to PeeZones.

Im not here to diss Wemby and Chet but I'm stating my opinions on them. They are not better than Kai in their current state. Im still looking forward to Kai against Wemby/Chet. Tomorrow's game is full of uncertainty but to state that both Chet and Wemby are way better than Kai is full of hogwash.hahaha

[ARMIR]

maybe the back injury is bothering him? it wont do kai any favor if he doesnt show any aggressiveness, he will get benched. tbh, edu is way more better than kai now in my opinion.

Here's some of the 2nd quarter action filmed from the stands,at 4:48 Kai had his hands on his hips,and just standing and waiting not making any moves at all at 4;52 finally got the ball,his guard off balance instead of creating a shot by driving it in,he elected a pass to Scottie vs the help defender https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3LAy1aPZQc

That's because baseball and soccer are kings in Mexico sports.

Everything about Kai, screams laziness. And the stats don't lie either.

Rebounding numbers vs Mexico

6’1” Thompson - 6
6’10” Fajardo - 6
6’10” Edu - 5
7’3” Sotto - 2

The bolded part is supposed to be a Top 10 NBA Draft selection and better than NBA All-Time greats Tim Duncan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Larry Bird, David Robinson. Lol

The red flags has been there since NBL, B-League and FIBA games. If you’re an NBA scout, GM or coach, you should keep track of the rebounding and plus/minus efficiency numbers. Having a low rebounding and low plus/minus suggests lack of strength, lack of motor and poor PNR defense skills.
