As we've already been saying, Kolek should have been getting at least a few minutes per game.

He has the skills, needs experience during actual NBA games. But The orc buries him to run a 7-man rotation.

He’s here for when, well I don’t want to speak it into existence but you know.


but he's not a rim protector. he can't really do that job.


Nope, he sucks but he’s all we could afford for the role. Still better than Sims somehow. Hopefully he’s gone next year

We have several major league clowns here who've mocked anyone who said Kolek needs to play

Fortunately, most here get it and know he has skills
