Keanu Pinder

Pinder at the Sixers? Didn't expect that but OK. Positive is we have 2 athletic interchangeable PF/Cs plus Humphries at the C and DJ at the 4 and sometimes 5.

Negative is Pinder has no outside game. That is a really nice front court.

Would not be surprised if Keanu Pinder ends up at @Adelaide36ers

D2.0 love to dish it out but gets so butt hurt when he cops it once and a while

D2.0 that 30 year member of wildcats but can't tell the difference between a SF and Centre

"Pinder is legit 6'9, Kay is listed as 6’9 but is 6’8"
Pinder is 202cm, maybe 203. Kay is at least 205cm. But sure you wote it on the intaweb so it must be troo.

^^ yes !! burn

I do not, and have never, claimed any level of expertise on College basketball. In fact when the subject has come up, I have made my lack of familiarity clear.

"He is taller than Kay."

If by "taller" you mean a full inch shorter, then yeah.

Another example of how D2.0 doesn't know what he is talking about
I quote
" What role does he actually play??
I believe in College he was a SF? "

Lol nope never played that role jimmy

Another player Perth won't recruit
Sunday Dech

What?

Heard that too.. wildcats offered big bucks but heading elsewhere. Possibly Sydney

6'9 is extremely generous but he is a ridic athlete so it doesnt really matter. 6'6 or 6'7

Yes, supposedly Pinder has received multiple offers and looks likely to join the NBL.

What role does he actually play??
I believe in College he was a SF? But at his size, and since we seem to prefer outside shooters, I'd imagine he'd be a 4 in this league?

Santa suggested he could play the 5, but I think we showed last year with Hunt that doesn't work. (Unless your backup centre is a big unit.

No, he's not a replacement for Kay, but unfortunately unless we go Marquee hunting and sign Motum or Landale, Kay is irreplaceable.
We'd have to use the import slot.
(And again, I guess we could do that, if we find a Marquee SF.)

I strongly believe that Nick Kay won't be back.
You see last season I made the mistake of buying a Nick Kay top, and in our family that is the kiss of death.

^ That doesn't mean they are not good.

Humphries will be the highest paid local next season, so I'm expecting MVP level performances.

Dech is a good defender with an OK shot and is rising.

Jack White
Issac Humphries

Keanu Pinder
Add it to the list

Replacing Nick Kay with Keanu Pinder is like enjoying Haighs chocolate and someone gives you Homebrand Compound Chocolate.

I haven't had time to make jokes about his father yet.

Have you seen the Polish women

His mum is Aboriginal from the Kimberley.

What has indigenous round have to do with Keanu Pinder?

Would be an upgrade over Vague.

Poland is one of the poorest league in Europe, and he’d earn more money playing nbl than in Poland. Some people got stop guessing and do some research. He’s not playing in Poland because he’s a star.

Cats maybe turned him down, but talent to money ratio most likely an issue. Just because the cats say no doesn’t mean he isn’t nbl talent.

For players like Pinder, the NBL is always there as a "last" option.

There’s lots of guys like that in Europe who could play nbl, but the money and new experiences are overseas.

Hi - Looking for a regular pick up game in the city prefer early mornings before work on the weekdays. Does any know of any? at the Uni or fire station?
