hey guys, just curious to know how Koufos was doing for you guys during the preseason and if he hes going to play at all during the regular season

he was a young center prospect I was hoping the 76ers could get for cheap from Utah, but you guys got him

so just curious to know how hes been and what role he'll have this year for u guys

He has been better than I thought he would be. Pretty active and decent at blocking shots.
He will be the 3rd string center behind Darko and Pekovic.

He should be adequate as a 3rd center.

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

He will play decent minutes for a third stringer while Pekovic learns the do's and don'ts of real life NBA basketball. As Portland showed last year, you can't have too much depth at center. I'm glad we have him. He's got good skills and will probably be a starter somewhere at some point in his career.

I agree with this. If one Darko or Pekovic goes down, does Tolliver suddenly become our backup center? I wouldn't trade him just for the sake of trading him.
