looks like he's still working off some of the excess. Once he's back into playing shape things are gonna get scary.

Yup still looks thicker than his Duke days, but its not like scary weight gain either. Should be burned off pretty easily for him. Man Im counting down to tonights game. So much young talent in the Pels/Hawks game.

That John Collins test should be a fun one. Also, Hawks low-key have a pretty bright young core if it pans out. Roster is well built for todays game with Trae Nash/John Stoudamire/ and a host of 6'7" ish wings with long wingspans and jumpshots. Really like both of these teams going forward.

Now that I think about it they are pretty much the Suns of old. Elite passing point guard, a very good athletic big and a ton of 6'7 wings.

looks like his game is translating well, where in the rotation and what role do you see him playing on your squad?

He’s definitely gonna be getting some good minutes early on the team, everyone on the team including coach Spo is riding for this kid and sees his great work ethic and what he has to offer. He’s way more than just a shooter he’s a good passer, and very good in pick and roll situations. I definitely see him having some ball handling responsibilities and he’s very good off ball too. His defense is his biggest flaw in his game but he tries on defense and being under Miami he will get better at that.

I don't know the consensus on Waiters with the Heat fanbase but i envisioned Herro playing Dion out of a job sooner rather than later. Is that accurate or are you folks pretty high on the self-proclaimed Kobe Wade?

RJ could be a culture-changer type pick for the Knicks. He's a ruff rider and he's resilient. Played poorly in the first half against Washington but led the charge in the 3rd quarter and sealed the win at the free throw line.
