    The guy is just getting back, he's no star, it's going to take him some time to catch up to game speed. These other guys have a half a season under their belts.

    I’ll give him a chance though. He is a homegrown shooter, historically, the only ones who had any modicum of success as shooters in purple and gold e.g. Coop Scott Fish (Sasha:giggle:)

    Love to see more of our home grown talent end up on our roster if they are worthy. Hate to see our draft picks spread across the league, but sometimes it's about fit and timing.

    The one that still kills me every single year is Zubac. We still haven’t come close to adding someone with his size and talent.

    He’s no longer on a 2-way right? Because if so we’re wasting one. Guy does one thing, and he does it mediocre in actual games. He’s not an NBA player, he might not even be an overseas player.

    New CBA gives everyone 3 two-way contracts. Castleton, Hodge and Swider

    The only guy I saw today deserving of playing with the varsity squad is Max.

    Ok so we are wasting one then, because this dude will never be an NBA player.

    Cole looks rough..the lack of agility is looking more pronounced. We should have kept Huff.

    Huff went to Houston. Didn't manage to stay in Washington. Very surprised by that because he played very well at the end of the year and considering the direction of the franchise he could have made sense.
    He may not be that "good"
