If Bol Bol can humble himself. He can be like Aaron Gordon for the Suns. It feels like he forces dumb shit because he's trying to prove the doubters wrong. You can tell falling in the draft really got to him and he was trying to have a revenge tour in Orlando. If he just simplifies his game he will be really good for the Suns and earn another contract.
I agree with the first part he definitely does dumb shit tryna prove himself but bro doesn’t need to simplify his game he just needs to calm it down it’s nothing wrong with how he plays he’s just kinda wild ya kno like early days Westbrook Just needs to chill
Him with the help of Vogel defensive coaching and KD Mentorship his potential is insane ! But it comes down to him if he unlocks that untapped potential its literally now or never
He got motor issues 😢 sadly. I never wanted to admit it , but all you gotta do is watch Victor & Chet play and you can see this CLEAR as day. Bol is one of those “divas “ who think they better than what they actually are. His potential is still through the roof but he’s not focused enough.
Well he needs more than 1 or 2 shots per game. And he needs grooming, a Owner that will give him time on the floor to develop. His ceiling is very high if he stays healthy
He then proceeded to shoot 8% from three as a bench player. That's horrendous and there's no excuse - you're not going to start him just because there's a chance he's a better shooter when he starts
For bol bol, less is more. He need a coach like poovich to lot his game to his strength and hide his weakness. Bol need to stay humble and work on being a good help defender and catching good looks near thr rim
I think the suns roster is starting to build out. With the exception of no injuries, Bol bol fits with Ayton and you put Durant at the 3 and he can play make for Ayton and Bol as the point forward and Booker and Beal are bal handling all day. Suns will be fine. People forget if Durant is in the perimeter guarding with his length the suns defense is pretty much stacked to the brim. Ayton needed a power forward that was a banger down low.
"Ayton needed a power forward that was a banger down low." you're literally describing the exact opposite type of player that Bol Bol is. I remember reading some statline that on 80% of contested rebounds, Bol loses those battles. He hasn't shown the strength/size to really fight for boards.
Everyone sees the crazy highlights but no one wants to talk about the turnovers and him being a defensive liability. The Nuggets let him go because of effort issues and the Magic waived him for a similar reason. I want him to succeed but at this point he needs held accountable for his lack of growth.
@@gregorycamacho5798most 23 year old nba players don’t get his level of opportunity. This season is make or break, having ok stats and cool highlights are useless if you are a defensive liability and have a piss poor motor.
Its funny when guys who haven't played basketball at a high level feel because they can drop a few stats they know the game. To someone who actually knows the game Bol Bol is a tweener SF/Pf. He gets erratic because he knows he isn't going to get consistent minutes so he tries to do everything to show why he should be playing. He never knows when he is going to play, it obvious he is under alot of pressure and is upset because he knows he is talented enough to make an impact but can't get time and development
Bol Bol really just has to improve his feel for the game and ability to play within the team framework. It’s through focusing on the little things and playing off of others that will allow him expand his role offensively.
Keita Bates-Diop should be our 5th starter. No more Bol Bol at the 4. He is not a good perimeter defender. He will most likely be fighting for backup minutes at the 5 with Eubanks. And unless he improves drastically, Eubanks will win that battle.
Make sense Beal Book Kd Bates Ayton Bol Bol Warren Okogie Gordon Saben Ish Watanabe Lee I'm honestly more than impressed with some of their signings not all
Development is everything how many Young players have been involved with Coach's do their job. Look at Ralph Sampson you got put these guys in a situations that plays their Strengths. 😮
His Bol Bol bag will work sometimes not enough to really need it he needs to play modern big style catch lobs, block shots, get rebounds shoot some open 3s
If Bol Bol can play defense he could get a lot of minutes even if he isnt a 3pt shooter I think he has shown you have to guard him when he is inside the 3pt line because else he can get a pass and take 1 step into a layup and defenders will stay on Booker, Durant, Beal and Ayton.
Bol Bol’s worst problem is actually defense and it’s the main reason he got benched and waived and is now on a 1 year minimum he has the worst defensive iq and footwork among big men in the NBA besides James Wiseman. He can block shots but other then that he’s a liability on defense. He’s unlikely to play more then 10-15mins off the bench unless he suddenly is good or there are injuries
Now The Suns have 2 centers with something to prove... Talent that hasn't been unleashed... Could be a great push for either Ayton, or Bol Bol;... Or maybe both flerish which will make The Suns unstoppable...
we dont need shooting from bol, and deff not 3pt shooting (we got that in spades). what we will need bol to do is block and boards, easy. he will get plenty of around the rim stuff just because of the spacing. he needs to humble himself and learn a bit more and not try to prove he can play, it'll come. being around and able to learn a bit from KD will be great for him too.
@@mordakie3805 he can do both just fine, hes just young and doesnt know how to be effective in certain situations yet. KD and vogal will help with that.
I think if he went to Heat or Spurs, these organizations would give him the best chance to succeed as well as truly develop him if he work hard enough.
He was out of the rotation in a playoff team for almost two years; he went to a lottery team, and as soon as he is out of the rotation, the team started to win games he's now in a playoff team... ... if he doesn't understand his role. He's going to be out of the rotation and out of the NBA.
I think ppl aren’t talking about how iso dominant this suns team will be with Bol Bol now added. The only true off-ball starter is Ayton. I mean it sounds nice statistically but fundamentally it’s gonna be a grind.
I am so sick of TH-camrs click bait titles and thumbnails. I automatically dislike the video when they do that or when they start by saying “Before we get started don’t forget to smash that like button, subscribe, turn on the notification bell, let’s get started.” I will refuse to like a video when they do that even if I like the content because it annoys me that much
Fun fact: Bol Bol is in the 1st percentile of perimeter defense according to cleaning the glass. That means he is one of the 4 worst players in the NBA at guarding the perimeter. Playing him at the 4 is a huge mistake, he needs to be a center. Idk how much play time he gets behind Ayton and Eubanks, though.
Lol I’m only 5’8” and I remember back when we would play pick up ball, if one of my buddies were on the other team, they would warn them about my vertical. I used to come out of no where with blocks and rebounds. I would jump over a guy that was like 6’2” and grab the rebound. But at THIS height? I would’ve been shut down regardless of my power lol
JUST WANT BOL BOL TO PROTECT THE RIM, REBOUND AND HIT SOME SHOTS WHEN NEEDED!!!!!!!!!!!........SUNS GONNA PLAY FAST, BOL BOL CAN STRIVE ON THAT SPECIALLY ON THE BREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi tucker, I love your videos, been watching you for a Iong time. Iwould like to know if you tell me how you get stock videos for your videos? I would love to start my own nba youtube channel
Sorry dude, i disagree with all of this.. bol bol bag is what makes him special. Why not become a better ball handler and decision maker. Limit turnovers by practicing scoring with fewer dribbles. Work on the midrange instead of your advice of just stopping doing it. Bol bol is not a post player that would be square one for him. I agree with him being better with the 3, but that is really just reps and confidence. Remember, kd was a turnover machine too. Hell, the last couple of years, kd has been pretty bad turnover wise in the playoffs. What if kd followed what everyone probably wanted him to be at his size. You dont have the kd that we know. Now, kd is the blueprint, it seems.. Bol bol biggest problem is his work ethic, and he loses confidence easily if he doesn't get playing time. This is the reason for the huge fall off last season once the rotations changed.
This Bol Bol last real shot imo. If he wants to get a real bag after this season, he's gotta listen and put in the work. Otherwise, he's gonna find himself playing overseas soon
Bol in his 33 starts on the magic was 14/6/2 blocks shooting 60/40 splits which is amazing shooting %’s.. he’s a 7’2 Swiss Army knife. He was wemby before anyone knew who wemby was. In those 33 starts he lead the league in block % & was top 10 in blocks & last year was practically a rookie year based on games played. & talking upside ..Chet does nothing better than him , I’ve never seen this much discourse for a “role player” either . Durant will unlock him & the potential is scary
@@xavierb9061I also enjoy Chet but I can argue that he hasn’t done anything in league yet & bols summer league #s are actually better. All about situation
he is nowhere near wemby. the bol fanboys need to knock it off with this rubbish. there is a reason this bum keeps moving teams and got waived by a crappy magic team
Great breakdown. Suns fans, manage your expectations or you’ll be disappointed. He’ll be a bottom of the bench mop up minutes guy who is more of a developmental prospect.
@@xavierb9061 Bol Bol won’t start. He isn’t a good player but he’s only 23 and has a ton of potential. He is in a good place to develop and it’s worth the shot
NBA isn’t all about offense he makes dumb plays, he had freedom in Orlando now he’s on a team that has hopes to win he’s gonna have to play within system and his defense isn’t great he tries to block everything and gets pumped faked a lot and guys will get him to jump on the pump and blow past him
SL breakdown, good commentary, good analysis. I figured you be more positive about the guys perspective of learning from some of the best and may be bringing his game to another level. But with all the negativity or what he cannot do I guess we can’t see what he can do. Thanks a lot for your analysis.
there has to be a commitment from the team to Bol, play the man and make him a priority and they will be rewarded. People talk about his mistakes hell i see the best players making mistakes. Bol is due and wanting a big money contract so if he gets playing time i think he will show out and make the best of his chance to play. Bol is an exciting player and playing with his idol in KD is icing on the cake.
Do you think that Durant will be able to mentor him ?? Durant also never shoots from the corner Also do you think he's going to get playing time or just in emergency.
This wasn't Durants move. This is a Vogel move. I'm sure KD will be a good Mentor, but if anyone can convince Bol Bol to become a true center, it's him
Wow….the suns are so weak they have to start a waived player that has failed on 2 team? As a Nuggets fan I am feeling even better about this season. Sad.
Hopefully Kevin Durant will shape this kid into something special, he is very raw but young enough to make improvements. He needs discipline and direction. Regardless, I am sure we will see him in the game when the Suns are up by 50 points.
Please help Bol escape the Phoenix Suns. He’s a better fit with The Memphis Grizzlies. I’d like to see Bol Bol in Memphis wearing a Grizzlies jersey. He’s definitely the Grizzlies answer to The Denver Nuggets and OKC Thunder and Dallas Mavericks and……🧏🏾♂️🗑️👋🏾🏀 I
I have to disagree with this video. This video does not have context, like the fact that he was over 40% at 3 in high school and over 50% from 3 in college. He has had struggles after his college injury but that combined with his mistreatment in the league has weathered his skills. He was in discussions of being a lottery pick before his injury. He is coming from a place where he was the number 1, 2 or 3 option to being treated like the 17th option in the NBA. He is being forced to play center which his skillset just does not translate to in the NBA. He needs to have a good mentor that will help him polish his skillsets, build his confidence, and be put in a position to be successful. Basically, all the things Austin Reaves got from the Lakers. Play him at the 3.
dont worry they will find out soon enough. they dont seem to see the red flag in how a terrible magic team had no issue waiving him and he is going onto his 4th team
Yeah his shooting has not been good, but something not mentioned is that he was dead last in the entire league in perimeter defense. When it comes to archetypes and builds almost every single player they signed fits the mold that you would love as the 5th starter. Bol Bol is not anything special as of now and my guess is just gonna be a fan treat when they are blowing teams out. Of course there is plenty of upside which can be exciting to think about.
Bol Bol is going to wreck the NBA. This guy is an athletic freak: simply not normal! ...and he is getting better. It is hard to believe that he is only 23-24. My money is on him over the next couple years.
I completely disagree with you. The team coach is responsible for positional play of players. The coach most put a player in the best suited position to exploit players natural ability. That is what good coaches do. Any coach that expect a 7 plus footer to handle ball like a point guard is not a good coach period. Bol Bol is talented and versatile basketball player. A good coach most enhance players skill and put the payer in a position to maximize his skill
Yeah...the gameplan was never drawn with Bol Bol being a primary ball handler for this team. Whenever he would pull down a defensive rebound, he just goes with it. Especially during that stint when he started due to all the injuries ORL had to start the season. From there you would get highlight reel material or a complete disaster.
Then don't judge him when he turns over the ball. How many 7 footer plus will handle ball like him. Bol Bol is a great addition to the the Phoenix Suns. I had hoped that the Lakers would have snatched him as soon as he was let go by the Orlando magic. But they missed out. It's my believe that the Lakers will wish they had Bol Bol. He would have been a valuable asset to the Lakers considering what the Denver Nuggets did to Lakers during the Western Conference final. Denver Nuggets swept Lakers because they have no real big man to match the big falla.
@@deblessedone1735 so we're not supposed to rate Bol Bol for being a bad playmaker/ball handler despite the fact he never has double the amount of turnover totals when compared to his assists turnovers? And Bol Bol would have no effect against Denver. That ludicrous.
@@Malston1491 You are deviating from your earlier discussion. My point remains that Bol Bol will definitely impact the game against Denver Nuggets. He is quick for a man his size, he is a fairly good shooter as well as ball handler and that's all l am going say about this. Goodbye.
@@deblessedone1735 you ran your talking points straight into a wall when you call Bol Bol a good shooter. Never watched the kid play, found another one.
Bol Bol has incredible potential. He just needs grooming like Wemby. Unfortunately no one is doing it for some strange reason. I think they making Wemby the next It guy. So NBA just pushing Bol out league it seems. Technically Bol better right now. Lol
Bol Bol has been in the league longer than Wembanyama was getting real buzz as the next big NBA prospect. No idea why people are making this comparison other than the fact they're both tall, twiggy 7 footers.
Skilled but doesn't make good decisions with the basketball. Gets baited into fouls and forces shots when he should pass. If he can put it all together he'll be a solid nba player. Much better than his father was.
If Bol Bol can humble himself. He can be like Aaron Gordon for the Suns. It feels like he forces dumb shit because he's trying to prove the doubters wrong. You can tell falling in the draft really got to him and he was trying to have a revenge tour in Orlando. If he just simplifies his game he will be really good for the Suns and earn another contract.
Exactly the comparison I was thinking about
He was in Orlando. Doing what all the rest of the young players were doing.
I agree with the first part he definitely does dumb shit tryna prove himself but bro doesn’t need to simplify his game he just needs to calm it down it’s nothing wrong with how he plays he’s just kinda wild ya kno like early days Westbrook Just needs to chill
and being on a minimum one year contract, he is on a prove it deal for his next contract, and putting someone behind ayton is a win to push ayton....
They’re bringing him in as a developmental prospect I don’t think this is a prove it deal since he won’t be getting many minutes
@@zeus4885 ur rite won't be no pressure on him more so Ayton if anything
They don’t got nothing lose tbh. He had all the tools to figure it out so maybe something can motivate him.
He is going to be working with KD… this can be dangerous
Eubanks will probably be playing more than him. Either he or Metu will be the third string pf/center
Him with the help of Vogel defensive coaching and KD Mentorship his potential is insane ! But it comes down to him if he unlocks that untapped potential its literally now or never
Torn ACL.
If KD takes him under his wing, it's on!
He got motor issues 😢 sadly. I never wanted to admit it , but all you gotta do is watch Victor & Chet play and you can see this CLEAR as day. Bol is one of those “divas “ who think they better than what they actually are. His potential is still through the roof but he’s not focused enough.
Bol shot 26.5% from three last season but in 33 games as a starter he shot 36.2% a tick above Franz Wagner. Perhaps it is a rhythm thing.
he has goot shooting genes. he eventually gonna be a good shooter with repetition
or confidence but yeah
Well he needs more than 1 or 2 shots per game. And he needs grooming, a Owner that will give him time on the floor to develop. His ceiling is very high if he stays healthy
He then proceeded to shoot 8% from three as a bench player. That's horrendous and there's no excuse - you're not going to start him just because there's a chance he's a better shooter when he starts
@smiis3149 If you shoot 1 shoot per game or less after starting over 30. Your shooting percentage could be anything.
Let this kid play.
For bol bol, less is more. He need a coach like poovich to lot his game to his strength and hide his weakness. Bol need to stay humble and work on being a good help defender and catching good looks near thr rim
If the suns can convince him to play closer around the basket they got a steal in him cause he could be a threat
I think the suns roster is starting to build out.

The spurs dynasty has made people really look into roles and fit more then ever. Thank you Tim Duncan aka the goat.
Great video!!! I especially like the way the host talks! it's so natural with some signature features, like "However" 😆

I have doubts about the Suns but knowing that it's actually Coach Vogel is the one doing the coaching of that team, I'm actually hype!
great breakdown! that starting 5 could be hype if Bol does well!
Bol Bol really just has to improve his feel for the game and ability to play within the team framework. It’s through focusing on the little things and playing off of others that will allow him expand his role offensively.
Bol Bol is the definition of Quality over Quantity
I guess
He is the definition of overrated.
Keita Bates-Diop should be our 5th starter. No more Bol Bol at the 4. He is not a good perimeter defender. He will most likely be fighting for backup minutes at the 5 with Eubanks. And unless he improves drastically, Eubanks will win that battle.

As a Suns fan I am excited
Becasue i have to be
If this doesnt work in the next 3 years
its gonna be rough after

Looking forward to the upcoming season. Should be a lot of good storylines. Chet/Wemby, Ja, Suns, Jokic, Lillard, etc.

Please help Bol escape the Phoenix Suns. He’s a better fit with The Memphis Grizzlies. I’d like to see Bol Bol in Memphis wearing a Grizzlies jersey. He’s definitely the Grizzlies answer to The Denver Nuggets and OKC Thunder and Dallas Mavericks and……🧏🏾♂️🗑️👋🏾🏀 I
Bol BOL is humble... NBA just hating on dude KD see the greatest coming 🏀🤎 And the a ring too
The Suns needed a point guard, but this is ridiculous.
BolBol is not good, its a reason he was available for a min deal.
I have to disagree with this video. This video does not have context, like the fact that he was over 40% at 3 in high school and over 50% from 3 in college. He has had struggles after his college injury but that combined with his mistreatment in the league has weathered his skills. He was in discussions of being a lottery pick before his injury. He is coming from a place where he was the number 1, 2 or 3 option to being treated like the 17th option in the NBA. He is being forced to play center which his skillset just does not translate to in the NBA. He needs to have a good mentor that will help him polish his skillsets, build his confidence, and be put in a position to be successful. Basically, all the things Austin Reaves got from the Lakers. Play him at the 3.
You tried to call bol bol goood defensively and he’s not at all..he gets cooked he can help defend thats about it
Why is he being slept on
Bro, he sucks. Go watch full magic games. More bad than good. As a laker fan, I'm so glad suns made this move! Just like his dad. In his prime. GSW.
We got 4 centers. So if he can’t play, he will join Wainright on the bench. Lol
dont worry they will find out soon enough. they dont seem to see the red flag in how a terrible magic team had no issue waiving him and he is going onto his 4th team
Yeah his shooting has not been good, but something not mentioned is that he was dead last in the entire league in perimeter defense. When it comes to archetypes and builds almost every single player they signed fits the mold that you would love as the 5th starter. Bol Bol is not anything special as of now and my guess is just gonna be a fan treat when they are blowing teams out. Of course there is plenty of upside which can be exciting to think about.
Bol Bol is going to wreck the NBA. This guy is an athletic freak: simply not normal! ...and he is getting better. It is hard to believe that he is only 23-24. My money is on him over the next couple years.
Idiotic comment
Because he is a 7'2 player that acts like a plate of peanuts in a bar.
If they get Oubre they can also have a line up where he start. The team would be limited by they imagine lmao
7'2 pg that doesnt wanna play ball😅
I completely disagree with you. The team coach is responsible for positional play of players. The coach most put a player in the best suited position to exploit players natural ability. That is what good coaches do. Any coach that expect a 7 plus footer to handle ball like a point guard is not a good coach period. Bol Bol is talented and versatile basketball player. A good coach most enhance players skill and put the payer in a position to maximize his skill
Yeah...the gameplan was never drawn with Bol Bol being a primary ball handler for this team. Whenever he would pull down a defensive rebound, he just goes with it. Especially during that stint when he started due to all the injuries ORL had to start the season. From there you would get highlight reel material or a complete disaster.
Then don't judge him when he turns over the ball. How many 7 footer plus will handle ball like him. Bol Bol is a great addition to the the Phoenix Suns. I had hoped that the Lakers would have snatched him as soon as he was let go by the Orlando magic. But they missed out. It's my believe that the Lakers will wish they had Bol Bol. He would have been a valuable asset to the Lakers considering what the Denver Nuggets did to Lakers during the Western Conference final. Denver Nuggets swept Lakers because they have no real big man to match the big falla.
@@deblessedone1735 so we're not supposed to rate Bol Bol for being a bad playmaker/ball handler despite the fact he never has double the amount of turnover totals when compared to his assists turnovers? And Bol Bol would have no effect against Denver. That ludicrous.
@@Malston1491 You are deviating from your earlier discussion. My point remains that Bol Bol will definitely impact the game against Denver Nuggets. He is quick for a man his size, he is a fairly good shooter as well as ball handler and that's all l am going say about this. Goodbye.
@@deblessedone1735 you ran your talking points straight into a wall when you call Bol Bol a good shooter. Never watched the kid play, found another one.
Bol shouldn't be the 5th starter. They need a guy who can shoot and play perimeter defense, both things Bol isn't good at.
Bol Bol has incredible potential. He just needs grooming like Wemby. Unfortunately no one is doing it for some strange reason. I think they making Wemby the next It guy. So NBA just pushing Bol out league it seems. Technically Bol better right now. Lol
That’s why KD is going to be a good mentor for him.
Bol Bol has been in the league longer than Wembanyama was getting real buzz as the next big NBA prospect. No idea why people are making this comparison other than the fact they're both tall, twiggy 7 footers.
he's not going to get grooming like wemby, he's a second rounder that can't play defense. he doesn't work hard, which he admitted himself.
Him doing bad come from him trying to do more since he get low playing time. But he unpolished too so he end up making misplays
What is the difference in Bol and Wembanyama
Wemby can play in the post..defend the perimeter and get his own shot..also has an higher release point for his jumper
No way he needs to start ..
Beal
Book
Gordon
KD
Ayton
kd and taller wannabe kd
Skilled but doesn't make good decisions with the basketball. Gets baited into fouls and forces shots when he should pass. If he can put it all together he'll be a solid nba player. Much better than his father was.
