He'd automatically be one of the more athletic guys on our roster.

Oliver Miller 2.0? Now there was a big man with a nice, feathery touch.

Oliver didn't have a 39 inch vert.

Technically, already out of the league now.

My prediction is on pace!

It makes me hate the Temple signing. Even the McDaniels signing. I didn't hate that one at the time, but wow, where did his shot go?

That's the thing, he never had a shot. People were just looking at a 30 shot sample size with Philly and thinking he could shoot. He had a single season of 38% shooting, with only 108 attempts, definitely not enough to assume it would continue.

His college stats of 30% on 94 shots is also a small sample size, but it fits in a lot more with the rest of his career. He's just not a shooter, never has been.

Have you seen him? Of COURSE He is. That's my joke for the week.

His turnovers are insane. He can't maintain a 5:1 point to turnover ratio. I'm not sure how much that affects efficiency because I"m dumb. Seems like he has negative offensive winshares or close to it.

Apparently he had 6 or 7 offers.
Philly gets him.
