Am I the only one who thinks Better Call Saul is better than Breaking Bad?

I expect Coleman to be great, but there's a chance that Morillo has an even greater impact. A fairly thick 6'7" with with high bball IQ and PG skills, and has now developed a pretty consistent three point shot. If he can defend (always a challenge for a freshman), this dude is going to play a lot.

As I've said before, I would pay money to see the runs this summer.
Coleman is a stud. With his shooting ability, shot creation, and even athleticism.... would be shocked if it's not immediate impact (unless he's awful defensively - don't expect to be the case).

Morillo at this moment is more raw (compared to Coleman).

Michigan just got the big 7’2” kid from Cincy. Ugh.

No, I am specifically pointing out the narrative that Morillo is going to be a 4 at all. There were those that said he was our “back up 4” or our “emergency 4”…….. which is problematic.

1st reason: He is not a 4 and I would be STUNNED if he was our emergency 4, over Jakstys.

2nd reason: There was a narrative that because he is our “backup 4” or “emergency 4” we are doomed. There was a whole discussion about who he’d be able to guard at the 4. This dovetailed into “well what about the backup 4’s, could he guard them? Which then dovetailed into “any good coach would immediately put in their starting 4 against Morillo.”

But if we can just agree that Morillo is not a 4….. as a backup, or emergency…… we could finally grasp that we do have our backup facilitator and on ball guard. Which is what he is.
No we can't agree because you're arguing against a position that virtually no one is taking.

I’m in that camp, and I don’t consider that a knock on Breaking Bad at all.

Rhea Seehorn walked onto my flight out of LAX one day and I got to fan boy and basically told her the same! BCS>BB
Kim Wexler is hot.
I invited her up to the flight deck and she came up and chatted with me for 5-10 minutes!
Fun BCS talk and got the Pluribus scoop.
She’s a gem.
