Has anyone else been keeping up Kyle Wiltjer?

    Ever since preseason I've been finding myself checking up on his D league game highlights every couple weeks or so. The more he plays the more I see that he can do from postups, to ball handling,to off the dribble threes, and even starting to rebound better. Just seems like the dude has got a really good offensive game. Not much for defense but when you compare him to Ryan Anderson, which all he can do is shoot spot up threes, Wiltjer looks like he's going to be a good NBA player in this system. Just wanted to get your thoughts, and to see if I'm just crazy or if this guy really has something.

    The only reason he didn't get drafted was because he looks goofy running.

    I really think if you put Ryan Anderson in the D league you would be amazed how good his offensive game looked

    You must have a lot of time to be keeping up with these scrubs. Let me ask you:

    Have you also been keeping up with Kostas Papa, Courtney Fortson, Scott Machado, Nick Johnson...

    I just don't see him having the athleticism to keep up and trust me he's not posting anyone up in the league.

    Anderson would KILL those dudes in the d league

    Yeah, his head-fake from the 3pt line might even work in the D-League?

    Remember when FTW was calling Dekker a scrub for 2 years straight? FTW has learned nothing!

    Wiltjer all-star talent confirmation!

    Ryan Anderson would be putting up 45-15 games down in the DLeague...

    The most natural looking act of shooting of all times.

    All WTF Rockets WTF does is to disappear when Dekker is mentioned.

    Says the Lin fan. Just stop. We all make bad predictions, but very few of us are here for the wrong reasons.

    BS. Best cheerleader on our team. U see the other bench scurbs, Brewer, Ennis, Daniels? Only reason Bobby Brown is still left, because he's a professional ass kisser (harden's that is).

    He's the one having a dig on people's bad predictions without looking in his own backyard.
