    LOVE this addition. He’s decent on D and can shoot! Vando better improve on offense or he will lose a lot of minutes to Prince.

    Prince might be my favorite pick up out of the bunch. When he was first announced I thought it was going to be for the mle.

    Troy Brown had some nice games last season, but he really disappeared in the playoffs where he was kind of unplayable. Prince is a good upgrade. More talented and a vet.

    Highlight reels can really get you excited. Someone should make lowlight reels just to keep fans more even keeled.

    and just bigger. to start last year, we had one large wing: lebron. now we have lebron, vando, rui (ok not fully a wing, but can play there in spots), prince, and reddish.

    our FA pickups have all made a lot of sense on paper.

    Sirron, I'd totally agree with you - but after seeing Westbrook's "lowlight reels" with the Lakers, anyone else's would still look like highlight reels in comparison, I'm afraid.

    KCP did well with dudes similar to his size or smaller, he struggled against bigger guys - one reason people didn't like the CLips matchup as both Caruso and KCP didn't do well against those wings with size.

    Everyone was down on Minnesota because of that atrocious Gobert trade but I thought it was interested that they played both the Lakers and Nuggets tough. Part of that is the talent of their top guys but I their role guys like Slo Mo and Prince were really good as roleplayers.

    Overall going from Troy Brown/Walker/Nunn/Beverly to Prince and Christie getting those 2/3 minutes is a huge upgrade. Really needed both Prince and Christie for the Nuggest series to throw at Murray - Vando and Rui were a bit too big for him and DS too small

    He’s clearly talking about last season’s biggest 3&D wing acquisition, Patrick Beverley.
