    We probably were hiding him in summer league and showcasing Melton expressly to package off the guy we wanted to lose in a Ryno dump. Now that the dump is over, we can focus on developing his (and Edwards') talent. May the best man win.

    Yes, his kickouts to Melo resulted in 3's, and helped to put the game away from the Spurs.

    Clark was injured before the summer league started.

    When you want some attention or thread activity just post something like "I think KD is hated way more than he should be". I did it, many people replied.

    I hope he keeps learning from PJ and CP3 in terms of defensive skills.

    Not how Maori works. He'll have his underlings "leak" info to B-list sports journalists and Twitter accounts, telling them how we got a steal and this guy has a legit shot to be in the rotation this year. Next year, a starter, and eventually could be an All-Star.

    Then sit patiently at his desk playing video games until Mr. Thibodeau calls.

    Is that even a competition? Edwards has been trash.

    I wouldn't say he's been trash I would say high tier meh. He's what you would expect out of a rookie.

    Clark on the other hand has played like a 2nd year player imo

    I can't get over his poise. Staying in school really helped him develop his game and gain maturity.

    He doesn't play like a rookie. No hesitance in his shot. Can rebound, pass and defend?

    Looney is a beast defensively and on the boards. He has to prove he can be trusted in big games before I would make that comparison. If he can keep up this level of play, and can earn some spot minutes this year, I think his overall talent can surpass Looney's in the near future.

    I can't believe I like he and MCW this much. If Brandon Knight shows out(not to mention Melo) I can finally see why MD and DM feel like this team is better than last year's team.

    Agreed . However , I think (physically) Edwards looks great . He seems to have an OK handle too .

    Once the game slows down for him a bit I could see his upside being higher than Clark's

    Clark rocks but our entire young core seems to have potential.

    Watched this kid when he played in college. He’s going to do just fine in the league. Great pick up by Morey

    I like the Patrick Patterson comp. But Clark can play SF as well. Did not know that about him. He must of been playing with a bad foot in Cincy, last season.
