Bryant is better than Sochan. Bryant can get up higher and looks quicker. Sochan should be traded for a knock down shooter.
Hi end I could see Bryant as a Rodman-eque typer defender, effective, energetic and annoying as . Don’t know about the rebounding but he doe have the length, determination and quick second hop to be good at it. Have to hope to god his O is better.

Bryant hasn't played a minute of NBA basketball. Lmao
Do you guys even realize how Keldon or Sochan would do in Summer League right now? They'd each score fifty points.
Bryant defense upside is obvious but it will on depend on him being clever to stay out of foul trouble, he is sometimes all over the place. We know referees love giving FTs to elite guard ala SGA, Doncic etc... On the offensive side he has no handle he has to cut and dunk and make his 3s at a decent clip to be a viable option. lots of work to do
Carter Bryant's motor is insane. That is unteachable. After watching him in Summer League, I'm pretty certain that OKC would've grabbed him if he was available.
He needs to settle down a bit, but, he will be such a welcome defensive addition once he does settle down. He'll be our Amen Thompson.
No way Sochan can get 50. He's not a good offensive player.
Bryant has a higher defensive potential than Sochan because he can jump and recover if a player gets past him. He's better physically than Sochan, quicker and jumps higher.
Sochan has been in the league three years and still trying to learn how to shoot.
Yeah, I figured you wouldn't understand this as puffing up Sochan as getting you to understand how bad the SL is. Yeah, absolutely would Sochan dominate Summer League, lol. And we're back to your bizarre fixation on Shaeden Sharpe here, aren't we?
Was this supposed to be blue fonted? Not even sl could make them look that good. Maybe a couple 30 point games.
What?So summer league can’t make them look good then you concede they maybe could get 30 point games, which happens to be all Flagg needed to be crowned the next basketball God?
I don’t think current Sochan would be the best offensive player in summer league history, no
I cant understand the pin Sochan against Bryant talk. Shhhit, our defense will be off the chain with Bryant at the 3 an Jeremy at the 4 with Wemby behind them.
We don’t want or need KJ to score 50 points. We want him to play defense. Him not being able to is exactly why Bryant will get his minutes as the season progresses.
Bc Sochan can’t shoot worth and due to his lack of any semblance of a jumper in game he is an unstartable player.
Some people still don't understand the difference between legit NBA players and the rest of humanity it seems. They may "suck" in your eyes but they definitely are better than 99.5% of everyone else. No amount of your hate can change that.
Nobody who comments on players sucking is saying so within the context of whether they suck against the typical population. It’s always within the context of other nba players.
or else every conversation about every player ever is just “dudes one of the best players in the world, top 0.2%, what a ing beast”
meanwhile you are talking about some like Jeff Ayres
Hartenstein, Edey, Gobert, Hayes, Zubac, Duren, Allen, Adebayo, Ware, Wendell Carter Jr, Draymond, Giannis and Thompson twins.
That's the entire list of non-shooters who started in this season's playoffs.
10 legit bigs, Draymond who played most of his minutes at C and shot 27% on 5 attempts, Giannis and Thompson twins.
Unless Jeremy becomes a Rodman-level defender, he's not starting any games without a jumpshot because he certainly won't become a Giannis/Thompson level athlete.
Ausar wasn't a positive out there and even Amen struggled at times despite his S-tier athleticism and great playmaking skills.
The game has moved on past non-shooters at perimeter positions much like it's moved on past elite off the ball shooters who are traffic cones on defense.
Sochan is working on his jumper. We'll see what happens. Hope for the best, expect the worst, etc etc. He WILL have a role IF he can be ok with less pay and less playing time. Though it would be sad, having him as a physical hockey-style goon, worst case scenario, is better than him off the team in my opinion.
As for his jumper, mild to moderate improvement seems reasonable. Having a consistent identifiable role is probably crucial, one that doesn't involve point guard or center. Just one of the forward spots, please, next to Kornet if needed.
Tangent about Kornet needing to get back to shooting 3s like in college, where according to Wiki, he has more made 3s for a 7 footer than any player in history of the NCAA, is for another thread...
I'm not sure Sochan could score 50 in an empty gym, but he'd definitely dominate these G-League scrubs.
And if Sochan played for any of those teams that would be nice for him. Having a 4 out of 5 three point threats on the floor certainly makes Hartenstein playable in that line up. In Sochans starting line up we have one legitimate 3 point shooter in the starting line up.
For the Spurs he is an unstartable player (well I mean technically we have started Bryn Foreskin so I should be more specific) for the Spurs to have a shot at making the playoffs and having a winning record for the first time in 7 years then he is an unstartable player on the team.
Sochan and Carter may have a good compe ion for defensive fireplug who apprentices at the local Masonry Union. Let the games begin! Let the cathedrals be small! Or something like that.
Yea when you have a couple guys who will always been on the court with them in Wemby Fox and Castle who all have a 30% usage rate, it makes tons of sense to surround them with defense to do the dirty work. Let your stars work. Let them chill on defense
