Anyone have a scouting report on this kid? Is it another Ernie Grunfeld steal?

He's a sleeper pick, imo. The man is young and a bit green, but give him a chance to earn some love.

Don't you mean some green? Abe needs the $$$, you know
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

He combines the tenacity of Benjamin Franklin with the vision of Alexander Hamilton.

One thing for sure, he is going to be better than Veermenko and Bill Walker!

Good trade. If the draft combines had a way to measure court/ peripheral vision our new addition would've definitely gone first round. Have a look see for yourself:

I knew it, Abe would sell the pick. Don't expect any other splash in FA folks.

No commitment to winning with the big boys like Dallas,Boston,LA or NY.

Abe is in the 6 or 7 largest madia market and he cant figure out how to turn a profit.

Sell the team old man, your time has passed.

Yeah but all he's gonna do is sit around and collect dust. He's sort of the 'break glass in case of emergency' type.

Ok I'm not getting a good feel on our new player 2.5 million. Which one of these is he?

IMO a mix of all these would be great. A money player, with great vision and tenacity, withe solid rebounding and hustle who makes it rain on the court.

Only 2 inches with shoes, and lateral reach isn't any higher. Standing vertical is zero, about the same as Songaila.
