willthepureshooter Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Man this guy's putting on a shooting exhibition in this years summer league. I remember how some people felt that he would have a hard time getting his shot off, but the kids proving everyone wrong. I wish we would've traded up to get this guy. He's going to be pretty special for Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) Two words: Summer League. Not that he won't be good but he's still basically playing against college guys - no? I remember when Marvin tore up summer league - sigh! Smh! Edited July 15, 2014 by JayBirdHawk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benhillboy Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) If you leave him open, he's gonna knock it down, no question. Playing for Thibs, at the least he'll be a good team defender. I developed a fandom of Oladipo out of last year's draft and he did what I expected (should've won ROY). I think I'm latching on to this McDermott fellow and Alfrid Payton out of this draft. Who is he gonna be: Morrison, Kyle, Dunleavy, Kiki? Out of respect I'll hold off on saying zee German's and French Lick Hick's name, but he may develop a better body than all of them.

I remember when Marvin tore up summer league - sigh! Smh! The amount of consistency he's showing is very eye-opening. And the distance on his three-point shot is downright disrespectful. Look at his high field goal percentages. The kid is playing against nba talent and he's separating himself from the pack. I see him cracking the starting lineup when the season starts. please don't speak of the duck.. lol I almost chuckle-farted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously T-Wolves Roster: LaRon Dendy,Mamadi Diane,Gorgui Dieng, Kyrylo Fesenko, Brady Heslip, Dennis Horner, D.J. Kennedy, Zach LaVine, Jordan Morgan, Shabazz Muhammad, Glenn Robinson III, Alexey Shved, Markel Starks Half are rookies like McDermott, Don't get me wrong it's impressive - I just won't crwon him yet until the real games start.

MrMeltdown Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 It is the summer league but plenty rookies have shown a lot of promise just not our rookies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you said rookies but, Schröder is really balling out in this summer league. I'm really impressed on how much he's improved in the past year.

ATLien_ Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Judgment day will come for all that doubted McBuckets, but @ATLien_ thoughts are well documented on the subject. He was my number one target for the Hawks with Gary Harris being second and TJ Warren being third. My top three did not disappoint me. Payne was 4th or 5th on my list, but I would not have taken him over Gary Harris. I think we will regret it too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
