Good. Hopefully after 3-4 months of playing with the energy if his confidence continues to build they can call him up and give him 6-8 minutes per game to continue his ascent. I just dont want him to become anothe EC who never gets on the court; this kid seems to have more heart i hope he makes it.

Yeah - I really feel for EC right now. he did well when he got some minutes and then back to the bench. Is there something going on we don't know about?

CLark is probably mentioned in trades.... his playing time was/is to show those with interest that all his moving parts worked. Thats my take on his sporadic PT.


Good for Gani.... but to put any faith in him contributing significantly is fools gold. A Milsap-ish second round steal he is not.

Like how Gani's working on his PnR play but I'd prefer if he'd work on limiting his fouls and increasing his rebounding numbers.

Here's to hoping for more double doubles.

I agree we aren't getting a Millsap but Millsap is first tier talent. Lawal may well end up being a good gritty defender/rebounder with a few scoring moves, I think he has the potential to be a role player down the line...

That's all I want out of gani - boards, defense and toughness, and whatever spoon-fed baskets he gets form the PG or putbacks. he doens't
