I don’t know. Bad teams tend to have Earl Barron types. Scrubs who do well mid to late in the season when there already is nothing to play for. Kinda have to be careful about that and not necessarily think you’ve found something.

Not saying he is a great player yet but do you folks see anything in his game that could translate well for the future. We already know he is a plus defender.

Can we temper our excitement over Kadeem? He wasn't getting those 25 points against a world class defense. Half of you on this board would have put up a double against the Cavs.

I can't wait for the days that we no longer have to talk about G-league guards. Kadeem looked great out there, but you know what? He's 25. Imagine Frank at 25 when he's built like a man and if he even has the exact same offensive game that Kadeem has now. That's why people need to chill on Frank.

Berman saying mudiay doesn't know where he'll fit in with the rotation? Good...they should all be fighting for minutes.

That, and Trier deserves 0 minutes

Def, he's dominated the G league, the D league of NBA and he's over 21 so he's go to alcohol buyer for the youngsters.
