He is an elite shot blocker, but had no offensive game. Not good enough hands to be much of a roll man threat. Too bad.


Ervin Johnson played 13 years in the NBA and had ping pong paddles for hands. There is a path.

Get Badji on that two-way man. Lliam Robbins ain't it.

My friend was at the Herd game yesterday. In no particular order, he said:

1) AJ Johnson was very bad
2) Tyler Smith was ok, not much of a rebounder
3) Umude looked good
4) Livingston didn't shoot well, but looked decent.
5) Badji was a force defensively.

Hope when we bump Rollins up to a standard deal that we give Badji a 2way

Livingston with another good game yesterday. 26 pts in 28 minutes, 10 rebounds and efficient shooting. Tyler Smith had 11 rebounds but very inefficient again.

Our 2 way guys looked like the G League seasoned veterans they are, but the NB a a prospect is this game was Clippers 2 way rookie Trentyn Flowers. He was raw as heck when the season started, but he's developing rapidly. He's only played 2 games with the Clippers this year.

If we make any kind of trade with the Clippers this offseason, get Flowers thrown in.

I liked Flowers quite a bit, should have been drafted. I'm sure some of our Aussie brethren have opinions from his time in Adelaide.

I'm unreasonably excited for the Herd collecting all these prospects I loved who flopped hard.

Im just convinced the Wiz broke davis. He was too much of a competitor with enough soft skills to get by even if his jumper wasnt going to completely translate. I definitely didnt expect him to flame out like he did and they messed up his shot.

Davis and Kira Lewis should be a fun backcourt.

I didn't think he'd flame out this hard and I can't blame him for taking the money in the draft but I never figured Davis was destined for much nba success. He isnt very big, could never shoot great, and is only a good(not great) nba athlete.
