^spot on.

Like it or not (unless Adrien turns into Barkley or something) this team needs Mully on the floor to look competent so as he goes, we go...to the draft lottery.

Adrien doesn't seem like he's offensively inept. He's 26 years old so he's not really a prospect but if he's good in the NBA at what he's good at in the D League then he's still a rotation player. From what I've read of his defense he can defend the post well with his strength but, his weakest link is defending the guard on the pick and roll. Biz is really good at that, Mullens is really bad at that, and it sounds like Adrien is somewhere in the middle. I've seen a lot of comparisons to Millsap's defensive ability, which would make him at least average on that end.

Does he run the pick and roll very well? Everything says he can't shoot well, but his FT% seemed to improve in the last year anyway? It's hard to find good info on this guy.

Also he probably didn't play last night because he hadn't attended a practice yet since training camp. They said we skipped practice to get rest and watch film.
