Lewis is super quick with and without the ball.

[nmeurett]

So guessing they did not allow fans at this game?

Shannon Brown looks like he's 50.

Sterling and Young having nice games again.

[Baddy Chuck]

If we can somehow keep Young, and Bolomboy and Munford stay in Oshkosh, we might be playing for a title this year.

No doubt. JaQuan Lewis's tenacity has been really impressive too. 6 steals in each of the last two games. Cliff Alexander in the 2nd unit Moose role is another nice weapon to have. A G-league title in the inaugural season would be pretty dope.

Be interesting to see how GP2 plays out. Don't particularly like him on the Herd.

As weird as it sounds, he'd actually be a nice player for the Herd *if* he wasn't a two-way player. To me the 2-way distinction gave him that "NBA prospect" tag and that puts a ton of pressure on him to be a point guard. Him with the ball in his hands trying to develop into that player hurts the Herd. If he was just a defensive stud off the bench or something he'd actually be a nice piece to have.

Ηe's poor man's MCW to me, which means he's mostly suited to Israeli/Latvian league basketball

He redshirted last year because of injuries. He wouldnt have been drafted and would have lost 4 years of college eligibility. He isnt exactly playing in a massive conference or against top tier competition. He should have went to Florida, Marquette, or Memphis in the big picture. He's also only 45 minutes into his college career.

So what? Can he play or not? Giannis played tier 2 Greek division and look what he’s done. If that’s the case only power 5 conference players should be eligible to be drafted.

And Kwame Brown was the #1 pick. Lets state more things that completely are unrelated. He's a red shirt freshman 45 mins into his college career whos played Ball State, Hofstra, and Ohio U.

How exactly is it unrelated? You’re discrediting him because of the level of play he’s playing and I’m saying it doesn’t matter.

Giannis played Greek division at 16 and 17 years old. Kostas is a red shirt freshman in the A10 and is already 20. He's played 45 total minutes. Versus Ball State he played 6 mins. A breakout game versus Hofstra with 26 mins and then folowed that up with a 13 min game. If he was truly an NBA player at 6'10" he should be dominating teams where their biggest guys are 6'6" and 6'7". If he wasnt Giannis brother no one would have him in their radar and weve seen it already once before that just becasue youre related to a player doesnt equate success.

It’s all about skill sets that you think you can get ahold of, work on and maximize. Does he have that? Idk haven’t watched much film on him but to say because of the level of competition will determine a future for someone is just flat out irrelevant and ignorant

Level of competition absolutely matters when youre talking about college. If he had this massive skill set youre implying he would be going to a more prestigious program which normally grooms players for the NBA. Level of competition absolutely matters. The Steph Curry's and CJ McCollums are the anomalies not the norms. Even with those two guys they dominated their sub standard competition. Kostas is 20 already and while being a 3/4 star guy there is some debate to what level he was recruited. Players who succeed in the ACC, B1G, or any power five will be looked at much more than someone in the A10 or Colonial. Saying otherwise is the ignorance.

Ugh I can’t do this with someone who doesn’t read.

Herd signs Cameron Oliver. Love it.

[emunney]

Herd signs Cam Oliver, waives Bakumanya. Oliver has some real tools. Should be able to score and defend the rim.

[Chuck Diesel]

I feel like all of the Herd front court guys would absolutely eat Wilson alive in practice. Intense, physical group.

[Chuck Diesel]

During last night's broadcast they talked about the possibility of the Herd being a rehab destination for recovering Bucks. Be sweet if Jabari could work himself into playing shape in a few games in Oshkosh.

They're continuing to impress me.
