We signed Jeff Adrian, Dorsey, and Daniels to the squad as well. Also, we are looking to bring Papanikolaou over from Europe and Capella will sign with the squad soon. Arguably we could have a better squad than last year if everything pans out, while still maintaining our flexibility for another star.
Thoughts on Marty Leunen or Andre Dawkins making the team? Leunen is the stretch 4 bullard type. Dawkins looks lights out from 3 . High IQ, ex duke player.
They just showed McHale walking and talking with Capela, McHale gave him the barbell flex motion, probably telling him he needs to hit the weight room.
Might DMo be the next man up? Can't see the game but the production looks to be there. How does he look? Staying on his feet? Boxing out? Rotating on D?
He looked really good today, if he's used properly he'll be the 2nd best defensive big man on the team behind only Howard despite not being a rim protector and he could be a decent scorer as well. As of right now though, he's the backup 5 on the team.
Thanks! I hope McHale decides to figure out how to use the guy instead of trying to make the guy into something he isn't. He might not be a rim protector, but if the can score, rotate, and rebound, then we have a winner. Especially if he can be consistent with the J.

I can only say Leunen has never really impressed. He is a solid 9.5 ppg guy in Summer league and would be a 2-4 ppg iin the NBA. Fringe fringe player who is solid but may never make it because he cannot impact the NBA game, there are so many fringe players and boring players
D-Mo looked pretty good on offense today. A sweet jump hook over Brockman, couple of 3's and a really nice face-up drive to the basket stood out. He stayed off the floor for the most part. I wish he would play with more fire in his belly. Looks too passive/non-chalant a lot of the time. Put Bev's attitude in D-Mo and look out.

dmo and hancock are the only guys doing anything out there. It sucks to see canaan and covington struggle so much with their shot when that's supposed to be both of their specialties.
The coaches don't understand how to offense, they don't understand how to defense, they just understand to run the team jacking 3p Garbage!
