Glad I stayed in to watch this game, really like Evans P&R game, Thornwell's intensity, Harrell overall and Wilson needs a two-way contract ASAP!

I'll be livid if Jamil Wilson isn't on this team opening night
If the Clippers win the championship next year I'm getting banned from RealGM

In all honesty, I greatly prefer watching the Summer Clippers this year to watching our actual roster from last season. These guys are gritty, competitive and unselfish. Jawun, Jamil, Brice, and Sin all deserve a real chance from this organization. They're our diamonds in the rough.

I'm sorry boys, calling Sindarious Sin, reminds me of Motley Crew's song Same Ol' Situation where the girl named Cindy now goes by 'Sin'.
I can't quite take that seriously.
ehhhhh f it.

I havent had a chance to watch any games yet. Is Sandarious really good? Can he be a 8-10 man rotation player? Can he make Austin Rivers expandable?

austin never started over anyone better than him so i would doubt that if thornwell were the next kobe and beverley the next gary payton that any impropriety would be going on.

Sindarius has an NBA heart but at 6'5" not an NBA body because he's really not a 2

He's 6'5", 212, with a 6'10' wingspan. He plenty big enough to play the 2 and small ball 3. Thats basically the same measurements as Wes Matthews, a guy who has played 32% of his career minutes at SF. I had this argument with Arizona fans all year about Rawle Alkins.
Cracking the rotation is a whole different debate, but I was a fan of the selection and will certainly be rooting for him to get some burn this season.
Plus, why would I want to go to the NBA? Duke players suck in the pros.

Only if he can shoot the 3 like Wes Matthews [lifetime 38.3%]. I don't think that's in Sindarius's arsenal, and there's the rub.

it's the SL talking
it's not whether they can play, it's whether it translates to the NBA

Why did Montrezl play? Hasn't he proven himself to be an NBA player?

Staking his claim? Clippers still looking at big men out there.
Interesting 2017 stats:
Montrezl 18.2 PER, 4.1 WS, 9.1 ppg in 18.3 mpg
Marreese 17.5 PER, 4.2 WS, 8.7 ppg in 15.7 mpg
BTW, Montrezl is only 152 days older than Brice Johnson!!

can't shoot 3s though. Speights is not super good at it, but he shot above average and was able to space the floor.
