    Who is this team's defensive stopper? Cunningham?

    the guy is one of the best 3pts shooters in the world, but I like him even more defending in the perimeter, where his size can disrupt any player

    25mpg would be optimal for him, given the durability concern. No doubt, that if incorporated in the offense like this game - that's more than enough time for him to help us win. And, he's usually decent(even when not - still top4 on the team) on the other end, anyway.

    people forget that he actually defended Zach Randolph quite well in the 2017 Playoffs. The usual problem with him was the lack of rebounding/banging down low due to his not so strong body and him getting blown by on the perimeter. He seems to have improved both things and the Spurs playing a hybrid zone helps, since that makes it tougher for opposing players to drive to the basket. He's also very long which is especially helpful on help defense. He should definitely start. His release is fast and he has wide range, fits perfectly in our offense. Bertans is also one of the few players who looks good paired with the starters and the bench. And he's pretty consistent from 3, not super streaky.

    It's his 3rd NBA year which is usually the year where rookies break out. He still has upside

    You are posting high aren't you! I've never posted for Boban at SF. I've said I'd happily take him back at the right price - with the intention of playing his as 4th big man...

    The universe of NBA players:
    Long usually implies a wingspan >> height... The average wingspan of NBA players is 4" greater than their height! ( https://www.thesportster.com/basketb...n-nba-history/ ) He has a below average wingspan for a SF (the average SF having a 6'11.1" wingspan, http://analyticsgame.com/nba/average...surements.html ).
    Romain Sato, a 6'3" PG/SG who we drafted, had a 6'11" wingspan...

    Bertans is finally playing with confidence his hep defense has vastly improved and he is starting to stroke the 3
    ball. He kinda reminds me of a tall skinny Curry great shooter but not a great defemder and a little injury prone. I still think he can do a lot more he has the handles to take it to the rim just needs to start trying.

    I do agree he is a better permiter defensive player and I would not be putting him up against PF at all even with his height he is kinda a SF/PF. In the future I think Ben Moore could be his opposite as defensive player who gets rebound not sure they can player together but that is a good one two punch.

    Lol and being on top of 6 foot 11
    Who cares how tall he is? Length isn't about height/armspan ratio. That's just stupid.

    No, that's your terms. Long means long. That's it. Yes, 'long' is sometimes meant in relative terms, but not always. Would you take Bertans' arms and prefer him to be six inches shorter? No.

    I always wonder if that half missed finger s with his basketball skills in any way. If he could be a better rebounder with 10 full fingers. Or if he could be even a better shooter. It has to matter in some way, tbh.

    I don't really agree. I don't think all wingspans are created equal. There's a huge difference between a big with a 6-10 wingpsan and a guard with the same. That could come down to the guys they're defending (6-10 will bother an opposing PG way more than it would bother an opposing center), or it could be a mobility thing. Bertans, Murray and Bonner all have 6-10 wingspans, but I would comfortably say that DJM has more length, with Bertans second and Bonner third. What Davis has over Matt is that he is way rangier than Bonner ever was and he's more inclined to use what length he has to block shots or go after steals. Davis' athleticism makes him a harder person to score on, at least when he does a good job of holding his ground. But it's perfectly fair to say he has below-average length for his height or position.

    He is one of the most upright and weak individuals on the court. He needs to hit the weight room and also have weights tied to his ass to get him to drop his butt and bend his knees to get a good stance for movement and for fighting for position. He needs to get playing time and attack the basket as he does occasionally, not just be a spot up shooter.

    Indeed.
    That was probably the personal matter that caused him to miss a game.
    Congratulations indeed.
