    He got some minutes tonight and looked very nervous out there missing point blank layups.

    But then kind of got going.

    Abused Bender in the paint to get his first nba field goal, then buried 2 threes, that was fun. Can you guys believe Bender was the 4th pick in the draft, LOL.

    Give him real minutes not garbage minutes he's a very versatile center. Can play that Kevin Love like role with LeBron.

    Bender has been terribly mistreated over there, but its also possible I'm as bad at talent evaluation as @therealdeal

    of course the scenario i cooked up of trading down and drafting him was just for fun

    Good to see Mo healthy enough to get some run.

    He certainly can play and has a very good looking shot. But I’m actually fine with him just getting garbage minutes for now although there might not be a whole lot of them. He did miss some summer league and all of preseason so he still has to get used to the game. You could see it the first few times he handled the ball but once he settled down he was able to knock down a few buckets. He’ll most likely be seeing more G league action. But it’s possible we may see more of him if both our primary his get into serious foul trouble or injured. But once he gets comfortable, I think he’s going to be a very solid player for us.

    He was active. Missed some point blank layups, hopefully that was just the excitement/jitters.

    He cannot play C though. Just not really particularly big or strong. 4 fouls in 10 minutes.

    Needs to bulk up regardless of position. But looks more like a PF than a C.

    I think small ball he could get away with, but interesting prospect as a high energy backup PF with range

    Nice we got him some mins, I think he’ll be able to provide us quality mins if any of the bigs are injured. At least we know he can shoot it in game unlike Svi.

    I have to imagine if Chandler wasn't here Moe would be getting minutes by now. But I'm totally fine with both of them mentoring him right now for the most part.



    But I'm also fine with him getting plenty of run with South Bay and hopefully getting some more minutes to keep both Javale and Tyson fresh throughout the year.

    He reminds me of Hart. I'm still for starting Hart but thats for another thread; imagine the energy Hart and Moe off the bench? That would be incredible.

    And Nance. That was kind of the description of him coming out of college and the tournament. Great motor and willing to go to the floor. Much better prospect for small ball center. And this is not a small and skinny dude. Not thick yet but he's got a good frame and the start of some definition. Looks an honest 6'11". Love that he hit those two 3s.
