    Makes sense. Maybe that's why these scouting reports I am reading refer to his 'length' as one of his better qualities.

    Careful dude, don't try it cold turkey. That can be really rough.

    Probably a 2 year deal.

    WOW. Multi-year means it's likely to be the same kind of contract that they gave to Jabari and Black: one year mostly guaranteed and a partial guarantee on year two.

    Still that's a big deal! What the heck is cooking up in the FO right now?

    Multi-year deals now for: Anthony Brown, Jonathan Holmes, Larry Nance Jr., Julius Randle, D'Angelo Russell
    Deals ending this year: Jabari Brown, Ryan Kelly, Tarik Black, Jordan Clarkson, Robert Sacre

    For all the young guys that's where we're at. Seems to me like Ryan Kelly is definitely the odd man out here. How exactly does he fit with the team?

    His passion for the boxout is a sight for sore eyes.

    I like the signing. Hope he sticks. Gives us more positional versatility.

    He was solid every time I saw Texas play. I like the move, but I am wondering what else we have up our sleeves.

    He looks solid.

    Might be a fan favorite

    Probably good going to the rim

    Good length.

    Will his all access interview be called John Holmes uncut?

    See what Punk started....

    There's no protection that can adequately cover John Holmes!

    He's a 3 and D guy. Maybe can play some 4.

    He's more of a power forward. He will see some time at the 3, though. I think we're probably going to have a Small Forward by committee this year...
