zerthimon 30 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Everyone knows the concept of a sell high. It's another thing when you're presented with that opportunity in the moment. Let this be a lesson that doesn't go wasted. (who am I kidding, same pattern will repeat with the next Boucher) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

azeri98 821 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 He's afraid to shoot. He had lots of chances last night at open shots and just passed the ball to someone else. Confidence is shot. I also don't think he's playing as hard as he was earlier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeXScott 164 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Chill out, if you're in roto know the Raptors are a proactive organization, boucher will be back, heck I'm not even benching him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I tried to slow down that chatter, along with the "he's a unicorn and a gazelle out there", which was hilarious. He's going to bounce back, but he's very matchup dependent. Teams are going to continue to close him down on 3 pointers and his efficiency there was always going to drop. He's losing minutes because he's not great defensively, aside from being a weak side help defender on blocks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DezedandConfused 2,972 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 He had been outplaying his ADP by over a 100 spots. So of course a lot of owners were able to sell high when he was producing 1st-2nd round value. But this doesn't mean he still won't be useful on rosters. Name another player drafted towards the end of standard league drafts that has put up similar value this season. All I expected beginning of season was about 1 three/10 points/6 boards/1.6 blocks, so he has exceeded expectations while also outperforming other 3 and block specialists like Brook Lopez ,who was drafted around 4-5 rounds earlier. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, Boucher may be matchup based, but look at the production, forget fantasy, still an outstanding prospect. If you added Boucher to the Nuggets roster right now in place of porter Jr, they'd be a better team 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jimmy21 31 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 What would be a good offer if we consider this a buy low opportunity? I could see that meaning anything from like 3rd round value to 7th round value Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gile Pile 1,206 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Boucher at 28 can hardly be considered a prospect. His game did not improve significantly in his time with Raptors. He will be what he is: weak 1-on-1 defender who can block as help defender. On offense, his game is limited as roller to the rim and open 3s. He cannot create his own shot. Btw, suggesting that replacing MPJ with Boucher will make Denver better team is very funny. I hope it's ajoke 2 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope it's ajoke Well my argument may be too nuanced for some of you Yes, Porter Jr is a franchise level talent you can build an offense around. He also doesn't move well off the ball , doesn't hustle and isn't in the right spots many times. Boucher plays hard and sprints the court. A high level role player who can shoot would be a better fit w Jokic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
droselicious 239 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Isn't MPJ much younger? You have to take that into consideration in reality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I cannot argue with that 🤷♂️🤷♀️ I hope you do know that MPJ has better %s than Boucher? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
