Sounds good. Can‘t wait to see him play in a Wolves‘ uniform.

Means nothing!
Brandon Clarke was the best player at SL, we could have had him at #11 and still had very valuable asset in Saric.
Fire Rosas now! He has failed us.

Is this sarcasm?

Those are very nice to hear.

Isn't Grgrich the guy on Parks and Rec that was always mistreated by everybody?

Not a big fan, I been pretty down on him. I liken him to Evan Turner. But what I like is his passing potential as he is a great decision maker. Not that he is advanced but his decision making is legit. His biggest gift is his off the ball movement speed and feel. He looks like Reggie Miller in movement. I think that's something to build on honestly. Other than that, he's gonna take sometime.

His shooting development is his most critical need. It's the difference between a good #3/#4 option and a legit menace and multiple time all star and potential HOF. His floor is higher than Turner just due to his decision making and movement alone.

Gerson had a clear top five w Culver in that group.
We were fortunate the Hawks gm fell in love a role player at #4.

The right and ideal role player I might add. We could have chose the wrong one.

The Hawks had that choice. The Wolves didn't. Hopefully they both have long and meritorious NBA careers only Culvers a little better.

Likewise but in Hunter's favor.

That's what I said about those guys anointing Clarke as the best player to come out of this draft.
Would Clarke have been the best if the top draftees would have played?
Maybe, probably not. But some act as if Rosas screwed the cow by trading up to get what is clearly a bust in JC, as opposed to staying at #11 and getting the future HOF'er in Clarke. (And keeping Saric and his valuable skills as an asset.)

I've never heard of anybody anointing Clarke as the best player coming from this draft. Most believe that to be Zion and a few think it's Ja. I was one who thought Clarke would likely be the best player at #11. Most of the people who wish we had stayed at #11 wanted that kid playing in France that I no longer remember his name. I without question prefer having Culver to Clarke. I haven't heard anybody that believes JC is clearly a bust, but some have questioned his 3 point shooting.

There are a few who think Rosas messed up by trading down and giving up Saric. They saw what Clarke was doing in SL and saw him as the better player even without watching Culver play. I don't want to look it up, but it's out there if someone wants to look hard enough.

It was Culver's 3pt shooting that worried me a bit too, but that was tempered some once I learned he made some changes to his mechanics last year. I think most of the Clarke talk was based on his success in summer league. Like you, all I ever heard was the likelihood of him being the best pick at #11. I was NOT one of them. I liked about 5-6 guys outside of the top 10 ahead of him for the Timberwolves. I truly believe Culver will be a top player in this league. He has so many intangibles and he has a fire brewing in his belly. Lastly, he's a leader and you can never have enough of them.

I think you were using a bit of hyperbole in your prior post. Yes everything you say in this post is true. Clarke and NAW are two players that looked so good in SL. Plus there is the Kid playing in France that so many liked. It is certainly debatable whether trading Saric to move up to 6 was the right move considering the talent that went 11 and later. Time will tell if it was the right move. I think it was and I hope it was.

I'm going crazy waiting for the Wolves to start camp and see the new players particularly Culver in exhibition games. Since he didn't play in SL we never got that fix.

"My job is to be low key and conservative as much as possible, but it's been a very fun three weeks to watch.....That guy's work ethic, commitment and passion to be great is pretty special." -Gersson Rosas

I am really curious to see Culver in action.

[Rookie-Mistake]

Will he start?

Culver is going to be a pretty decent player I believe. Right pick for once.
