TSJ is clearly a full talent level or two above this league. I wonder if we keep him going, or if we decide to pull him out and focus more on the others. The argument for keeping him in is to help Dilly and Clark more (less pressure on them.) The argument against is to give more offensive responsibility and focus to the others.

I am honestly glad that Portland picked him at #16, because I would have felt sick to my stomach if Minnesota passed up on this dude. :lol:

I'm happier with Joan of Development arc. Yang is two years older.

Any players you guys see as a potential 3rd two way. Or maybe even replace Jed with?

I think Rob and Joan will create a really nice partnership. They have very complementary skill sets.

I think he's going to be fun, but I'm not sure he can defend anyone.

Should we put all SL stuff here or just Wolves SL and other SL in around the NBA?
Ryan Nembhard 0-7 today, but does have 5 assists early in the 4th.

Carter Bryant having another rough game, but Dylan Harper looking good.

Rough game for him. 2 points on 1-10 shooting. Did not get to the line. 3 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal, 5 turnovers, 6 fouls.

Games like that could be a warning for me to not get overhyped for JoBear, but I know what I saw and I expect the same type of thing to repeat itself during SL.

I wonder which of these young wolves players you guys think will have the best career and what level they top out at?

I'd guess Beringer if he can stay healthy with all those hops at that size. I think he may reach multiple all-star appearances.

The sheer difference in athleticism between Beringer and Maluach was kind of shocking to see.

He could, but he may never score as much as the voters want to see.

Maluach has more offensive game than Beringer right now, but his feet do seem a bit heavy
