D was serviceable, missed some rotations and switches but it was ok. he already looks more polished on D than anthony bennett by a mile. he's unselfish to a fault, he never forced any shot and took what was given to him. shots will come.

He plays like 17 mins. Casey doesn't like **** up his bench which is fine but it isn't like he is getting 30+mpg
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

How bad is it that our 2nd pick is starting over our 1st Round picks the last 2 years. Lol garbage.

The Bruno pick being way worse Damn would be nice to have good right now. A legit sf that would of filled in with Carroll injure. He'll who know we may have never even picked him up.

Thank god tho we have bruno clown arms sitting on the d league team shooting 37%. The potential tho!!

One is a PG, the other a project?

I wonder what Philly is doing with Dario Saric.

The Warriors start 2nd round pick Draymond Green over 1st rd 7th overall pick Harrison Barnes from the same draft.
The Warriors seem to be doing just fine...

Not to mention Wright is a PG & Bruno is still 2 years younger than Norman...

Your logic fails.

He's done a good job given what Casey is asking him to do.

Offense needs major work.

Great defense, mediocre Offence...Yup, sounds like Tony Allen. If he can be Tony Allen-Lite, he will have a great career in this league.

Lol yea let's compare Harrison Barnes and draymond green. To good players to Norman can't shoot Powell and Bruno clown arms.lol Ur logic is garbage. And Barnes has started 27 games almost half the season.

I love deflectors!

You said we're starting second round picks over first as though we're breaking precedent and no half decent team would do it. Forget the names on te jerseys. The logic you put forth is the nitpicking here.

Just admit you were wrong.

He's looked a bit nervous as expected jumping from Dleague to starting but good lord can you imagine what Bruno would be like. All these people saying we need Bruno are nuts. Powell was a 4 year player at a national powerhouse NCAA school. He's been playing high level competive ball his whole life and its still a big jump for him to real NBA minutes. Bruno has almost no real basketball experience. He'd be 10 x as overwhelmed as Powell. It would be like throwing a 9 the grader into a Final 4 game
