Goran and Whiteside could sit and they'd still lose 10/10

I think White and Benson are the real deal. Weber, i go back and forth w/ him. He seems like a fringe player, and sometimes very impactful. How did Sioux Falls land Malik Beasley? 1st rd draft pick from last year?? Interesting

He's still a nugget, we're house sitting

Bri goes from a good to bad game every few games. He's going to have to find some consistency and stay involved over the course this season

Deandre Liggins isn't putting up big numbers, but he's getting a lot of credit for his play lately with the Cavs. Happy for him:
(I like that most of his highlights are against the Heat :lol:

oh man, had no idea he played already. I think his assignment was only one game

Must suck for Det, you don't ever want to quit on a 20 yo but they're going to lose a lot of value if they don't either force him into the rotation or trade him

Bish, would you choose: White or Weber?

I think both have potential, I think White will make a squad next year. Id like both, but leanin White.

Idk, not an easy position for us at all. They both are really raw and my choice would be for one of them to take Babbitt's spot. Seeing how Okaro could play the 3 and 4 (Two positions we are really hurting at) I'd probably lean towards him right now because of Bri's offensive woes. Bri's got more upside and more of an NBA player then Okaro tho, so it's hard for me to think of fighting for a roster spot for him just cause but anything even semi-productive for Babbitt would be alright with me. If Babbitt's contract's not trade bait or something

Keep your eyes on SF 24 yo Anthony Brown, who is signed by the Pelicans, but may be waived if they get a player back. Can hit 3s and go to the rim. Fair handles. Not high bbiq or defense, but a better player I think than Okaro White (who I like, but not enough to give a roster space)

He's waived now, was waived for Reggie Williams

Forgot to mention your boy Cheick had a good game, between him and Tim Frazier who's looking like an MIP candidate they're doing well with the dleague so far

Ok, well, I'll take Brown over White then. Same position, right? We already have great defenders on the wings, some great shooting would be welcome though.

Wonder how this affects the 1 & done kids that want to go thru the D-league? Probably can't use a spot on them until they're eligible for the draft, but can't they skip the draft and choose what team they want to play for after? Probably not but that'd be cool/interesting

One of the best King's players from a year or two ago and he's in the D-League? WTF. Kings just gotta stop screwing up. It's making it harder for everyone.

Makes a few shots early, shoots 15+, has decent game. Miss a few shots early, takes 6-13 on bad efficiency. Needs to find something good consistently on offense if he wants to be a fringe player in the league. His ast;to not cutting it close either

Ya Bish, i agree. That ast/to no good for your backup PG. I think hes on the outside looking in still. Possible 10 day contracts and summer workouts are gonna be crucial for him. Cause we could draft a stud PG and then that may be end of line w/ the Heat.
