I'm sold. Bertans is OG.

[TD 21]

Can Bertans get off the floor? Leaping ability and getting in position for rebounds can make up for lack of reach. I'm not sure what his vertical is rated at, but I've seen him try to tomahawk dunk a couple of times.

If he's got t-rex arms he needs to learn to position, and get stronger. Charles Barkley proved you can still rebound as a small big, you just have to know what you're doing out there. And Dennis Rodman, as much as I disliked parts of his game, knew how to get in position to rebound the ball. Bertans game is mostly that of a chucker right now. He's a 'B+' outside shooter, no post or true inside game to speak of, a 'C-' defender, and a 'D-' rebounder. He needs to work on his game if he's going to be anything beyond a situational rotation player.

He can, but he's not a freak athlete and even then his lack of length prohibits him. Besides, even the freaks can't rely on out jumping for rebounds consistently.

Barkley had a strong base and Rodman was an exception to the rule.

To a much lesser degree, so is Lauvergne and on the other end of the spectrum, so is Aldridge. The latter is only .25 inches taller than the former, but has a 7.25 advantage in wingspan, yet his career rebound percentage is 1 percent worse.

Hope this dude stops stinking it up in the SL....

Once again...it is summer league...Bertans was one of the better rookies last year in the actual NBA...not summer league...as a rookie in the actual NBA...relax...he even frustrated Zbo in the playoffs...who was killing EVERYONE on the roster

Hate to disappoint but in my lonely opinion, he's not!! I feel he's showing his naked ass... Him an the #Babyfacekilla Forbes... They're both streeking down the court. Forbes is on another level though.

[hater]

If this scrub is not going Dirk Nowitzki in the summer league

What a damn scrub

[james evans]

i'm amazed at people that put stock in sumemr league games. Kyle ing anderson was summer league mvp. Think about that.

Truth bomb. Posters are going at Forbes harder yet he isn't the one shooting 1/8 every other game and getting 2 rebounds despite being 6'10

[TimDunkem]

Yeah his rebounding is ing atrocious. He could at least put in more effort on that end. I remember he wouldn't even attempt to rebound in the first two games of the Utah SL. He literally watched the ball hit the ground in front of him and waited for someone else to grab it.

Bertans couldn't even impact any random SL game. Think about that.

Bertans is OG and he gives zero s about what you think.

Average euroleague player at best when he was there, he was not going to be a star here if he wasn't in Europe.
Some people here have crazy expectations for whatever hobo PATFO comes up with.

[BD24]

Sure lets judge the guy on his summer league play not his good games against legit NBA compe ion this past year. Act like somebody ST, for s sake. Excited for DJ and Bertrand to make you all eat this year

[spursistan]

Since this thread was made; Bertans role has gradually diminished to become a human victory cigar the following season..

Recommendations: Pink the got OP..

This scrub shouldn't see a minute of important basketball...

He's an athletic version of Bonner, tbh.

[Ice009]

I told you guys that he should be included in trades during the draft and free agency, but not many people here were willing to trade him at all. Same as Murray. I said to include both in trade packages, but most people around here overrated the out of them.

He's worse than I thought. I thought his stock was decent enough back then to use as a sweetener in a trade, but not anymore.

The awful takes were rather of the nature of lets give up Danny and Kyle for free... maybe ask for some cheetos for Danny. You hold on to Murray at all costs and Bertans, and let's sign JSimms "empty calories" to a mega deal, and pick up some name in FA. Turns out Danny and Kyle have been winning games while Davis unfortunately is not doing well, and Murray has had a good flash here or there, but not enough (pads stats in garbage time a lot), while JSimms has been in a 7 game losing streak.

I don't hate any of the these guys, it's just that the trolls are awful with their bad takes around here. They are really keen to make up threads saying they "called it" when they hit on something, but hide under the bed with their bad troll takes most of the time.

If only he could rebound and defend like Bonner.

Lol

Fathead should be traded tbh. Regardless of position.

We'd trade you to another message board if you weren't untradeable, tbh.

I literally lol'd when I went back over this.
