    Christoper has a higher ceiling than most of our other options at the time (IMO of course). I also personally just really like the way he moves. I truly believe our young core to be set. Some of those guys won't make it of course but Stone infused talent so quickly. I don't expect to win a lot of games but I expect to watch way more games than I did last year.

    He can reach that level with time. That's good enough for a late 1st round prospect.

    Rockets just need to make one move to help Green out.

    Man, I dont know... Tyreke was a supremely gifted ball-handler and a very good shot-creator. He had a very similar style to Harden (had a killer Euro) and won Rookie of the Year. If I remember right, he was the first Kings rookie to ever average 20,5,5. Off court issues obviously are the reason his game never really improved (actually declined). JC is honestly a better athlete than Tyreke was, but Tyreke's ball-handling really takes him out of my hopes for JC.

    Assuming he hits the defensive end hard, he'll either need to become a solid 3pt shooter and play like Wesley Matthews or improve his handle and try to be more like Marcus Smart. I like him a lot though!!

    DeSagana Diop on the coaching staff. Interesting. (hope he coaches better than he played).

    I had thought Marcus Foster might have been put on the team (since he played in Turkey) to maybe be an on-court translator for Alpie, but looking at his bio he only played in the turkish league last year, bouncing around the previous few years between many countries/leagues.

    Would probably be a stretch to think he picked up the language in only a few months.
