I don't mind this signing at all, 26 year old former lottery pick, big men don't hit their straps until late 20's, he averaged 7.5 and 5 with 1.5 blocks in 18 minutes

At this rate of Kentucky players, I'm expecting Kidd Gilchrist any moment.

Y’all are **** paranoid and suspicious over nothing. Was Mitch supposed to play 48 minutes?!

Rim protection still in effect when Mitch goes to the bench. No complaints here.

Nobody wants this reject anymore.

Hey, maybe someone wants Michael Olowokandi! He's only 45!


ehh he will contribute off the bench.

14-10-3 blocks per 36

he is productive in a 15-18 minute window and thats all we need.

Call me crazy, but I actually don't mind this team. It at least makes sense in terms of the skills they want at each position.

So, I have to ask. If he developed him so well, why is Nerlens such a terrible basketball player?

The inability to shoot?

I guess it explains the Frank love talk and the resigning of Elf.

Thanks for clearing it up. :D

The only bad signing we’ve made is Payton. What’s the issue with Burks and Noel?
