    Play Lamb at 1, Parsons 2, Jones 3, Moti 4, James 5.

    Can Lamb play the 1?

    even if D-Mo was only 6'3 he'd still be impressive

    Rooks looked great for first game.. Just remember donte Greene put up 40 in his first summer league game and has been a bust since.. Bright future if we keep them all and they continue to improve.. Wish we could get a young pg to grow with these guys

    Terrence Jones is the good kind of tweener. Long enough to play the 4 but fast enough to guard the three.
    *cough* unlike morris

    Lamb and Parsons will be all-NBA defenders for many years

    As predictable as the tide my man. These kids have a bad game next and watch how fast people start calling them scubs.

    Gotta love CF.net

    That being said, DoNuts is obviously a hall of famer! :p

    Nice second half.

    If we're trading young guys I'm glad we're doing it before donuts is available. Rather not see parsons and lamb go either.

    Guess well see. Not going to get too excited about one sl game.

    Yeah, glad about that. The rest looked pretty good too, but I'm not super attached. Motiejunas is the only guy I really care about.

    -Motiejunas looking good offensively. Scoring in a variety of ways. Post-ups and 3 pointers. Very active.
    -Lamb showing off his scoring ability and athleticism. Good perimeter D.
    -Jones solid all around. Aggressive bringing the ball up the court. Made a 3.
    -White showed his passing ability. Would probably show up on the stat sheet more if Morris hadn't botched a few plays.
    -Morris looked pretty bad early on. Kinda picked things up as the game went on.
    -Chandler "Mad Chicken' Parsons solid as usual. His shot looks better.
    -Fortson was pretty bad. Hopefully gets it together for the next game.
    -Machado looked shaky. Showed some vision once things got under control. Had a nice layup through contact
    -Smith grabbed a few boards that impressed me. Didn't do much otherwise.

    Although its just one game. If this is any indicator of the future, there's a lot to look forward to.

    Screw Dwight, his bad back, and his bad attitude. Keep the young guys.

    Visiting various NBA forums...all of them are talking about how Motiejunas.

    Just watching the game he did some things that will and should translate into the NBA no matter what.

    Who knows what his ceiling is, but his floor is looking a lot higher than the risk people thought he was coming into the draft.

    That's gonna be tough man. If I'm Rob Hennigan, I would want Lamb, Jones, D-mo on my team. I can see us only keeping D-mo, maybe Parsons. That's why I'd like a 3-team trade with Lakers so we don't have to give up too much.

    Is it true Terrence Jones was a top-5 pick as a freshman in mock drafts
