My favorite part of this game was that KJ McDaniels looked so much better than Harrison Barnes lololol

harrison barnes could turn out to be the biggest financial mistake(excluding wes matthews) by cubes, but he is still young and has time.

I told you KWiltjer is just phenomenal shooter. Unfortunately I couldn't watch HOU games so I'm not pretty sure how's his defense - would you mind to share your thoughts?

6'10/240, 10/17 from downtown in preseason, can shoot off the dribble, after side step, pump fake, good looking dude, with some guts you don't see everywhere that he dared to quit Kentucky to join Gonzaga for the best of his career even if that meant wasting a year in college. Oh yeah he is 10000x better than Brian Cook.

He gives more effort than Harden on defense but he's not super athletic so he's limited. I hope they keep him
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

Very bad. But idk he can shoot so well he deserves a spot on that alone. He can be a situational guy when the offense is stuck or you desperately need a three or two. He has to play with Clint though because of his deficiencies. He's the only one who can protect the rim and rebound well enough to make up for him

I was hoping he keeps playing team defense and at least try to defend one on one. His limitations are clear, however his offensive repertoire is just elite - I was wondering if that's enough to get a spot in the modern NBA.

by the way in DLeague Kyle can go for some sort of crazy 35/40 ppg with his ability to finish everything on offensive end. That can be interesting to follow ;)

Ryan Anderson is the only starter to make the trip to San Antonio, probable starters for tonight are Prigioni, KJ, Brewer/Dekker, Anderson, Nene
