Johnson and Pelinka are being consistent. This guy is a 6'-2" Tony Allen type with more offensive potential. He went un-drafted and is a star in the G League. I watched a couple of videos and he is a defensive first, pass first guard. Even though he's mostly a training camp invite only for now, he's gonna give Vander Blue, Hart and even Clarkson a headache. His weakness as the video will tell you, is that he does not use his left hand on offense.

Zimmerman looks versatile and Beecham looks like a high school player. You can really see the difference between Magic and Rob versus Curly and Moe thus far. :) Lebron, I hope he keeps his talents in Cleveland although I must say that I need to see Randle learn to extend on his shots. He rises awkwardly and keeps his elbows tucked in which throws him off balance. This is likely why he broke his leg year one. I complained bitterly about Ball's childhood habits but Randle is another one. ....

He rises awkwardly and keeps his elbows tucked in which throws him off balance. This is likely why he broke his leg year one. I complained bitterly about Ball's childhood habits but Randle is another one. I saw a few clips of his Summer League play and he seems like a 6'-10" fullback who can handle the ball very well but there was zero difference in his game. Is he better than Lamar Odom? Probably not... If he is unable to improve and become a 20/10 guy, then let Lebron finish his career here with a few more championships which means a trade this Summer rather than F.A. next Summer. As of today, I will be surprised if Randle and Clarkson are on the roster as of the start of the 2017 season.

Think Randle and Clarkson will be on roster to start season, don't know if they finish season on team. Unless Lakers get a trade offer they can't pass on.

I'm saying that if LeBron wakes up in a couple of weeks and has his people call Magic's people due to his discontent with the lame team in Cleveland, that a trade is gonna go down. Will that happen before October? I'm not sure and probably would not bet money on it, but I think the possibility is strong. LeBron has a no trade clause but I doubt he's gonna leave Cleveland high and dry AGAIN so I figure that he figures he will do them a favor and allow them to get something in return (rather than waiting until next Summer), which means definitely before the end of next season so why not before the season starts?

Not sure what the point is really. I guess just to fill out the required uniforms for training camp. Briante has no shot. 6.7% from deep? I can shoot better than that lol Weber is a solid defender and brings excellent energy to both sides of the floor, but his perimeter shooting leaves much to be desired, as he's a 6.7 percent shooter from beyond the arc for his career. He also isn't great at attacking the rim, leaving him as a vulnerability on the offensive end. In Los Angeles, he'll battle with Tyler Ennis to serve as the team's No. 3....

6.7%... I could dropkick it in more frequently. I could shoot with my left hand and make at least 8%. Shaquille O'Neal has a higher percentage even when sitting in the bleachers. Maybe this guy is a pickpocket who got in the wrong line on the way to the jailhouse. 2.3ppg, 1.4apg, 0.1rpg and 9.7spg. Give that boy a few million dolla.

Yup...that's what I'm sayin'. They couldn't have done a bit better than that? Wow lol

Damn good class coming in. If we have a good season ( which I think we will) , it could get even better.

Love Perry... Vince Young clone, just think him coming in late has him behind Rosier. Would love to see him get some PT in these two early cupcake games at the start of he year .

Our defense will be one of the best in the Nation , bet hat .Can't wait for the season and o start and for week 3 to get here (FSU ) ... Go Canes
