But playing with real talent on the big club, it'll be a different story.

JB and D-white will love playing with him. He'll be throwing dimes to them as well as Pritchard and Hauser..

The ball will be flying around once he gets acclimated into the system..


Hes nowhere close to being ready to step onto an NBA court imo

Based on 1 and a half summer league games? SL means very little in terms of projecting how well these guys are as NBA players.

Again, Amari is the type of guy who would look better when playing alongside actual NBA level talent.

Also, given the fact that it's a bridge year for us and how weak we are at C, I think he'll get a chance at some rotation mins..


I can’t care less about his SL performance. I dont think he can survive playing defense in the NBA right now

Can't imagine why you'd catch any flak for that. Seems self evident.

Who was that guy who was like 350 lbs?
Sweetney?

Yeah, and Oliver Miller before him.

Forget passing, Amari needs to show something defensively.

He has a five year college resume and while it shows that while maybe he has some passing ability, he is a relatively inefficient scorer and a bit reckless with the TOs, in four years at Drexel his A/TO ratio was never any good.

If he can rebound & defend his passing ability will be nice, but his passing ability isn't going to keep him on the floor by itself. He was a productive rebounder & defender in college, but has yet to show that in SL.

I was gonna say, that SL Games should have 12-min Qtrs.
But this atrocious play, makes me think otherwise.

Like somebody said earlier. You have to wonder if he has something on Brad if he makes the 15 man roster :lol:

I'm concerned about giving him a Two-Way.
Brad might want to double think that.
