 They’re going to get a hard worker. They’re going to get someone who, I know this sounds cliché, loves the games of basketball. They’ll get someone who is willing to do whatever it takes to help the organization, and that means a lot of things – not just on the court but off the court as well. They’re going to get a contributor. That’s the biggest thing that hinders people when it comes to getting to the next level. Everyone wants to be the guy. I’m not to worried about that kind of stuff. I’m worried about coming in and helping, being a giver and not a taker.

This says alot about this guy's mindset. Dude appears to be a very intelligent. Very interesting read.

The good thing about him is that he has things that immediately translates as shooting, quickness and motor. We saw that yesterday. On the defensive end I need to see him more, but he did a good block, although finally was called as a scored basket, he showed some serious athleticism there. The bad thing is that he was pulled easily by Valanciunas. On the court he look like a modern PF more than a C, he looks smaller than Bruno and Bruno is not a big C.

After looking to the highlights again, Knight looks like he is 6’8”, at some point he is near Clarke and Cam, he looks exactly as Clarke and smaller than Cam. I don’t think he is even 6’9”.

So 4 more inches and he'll finally be as tall as Cam.

Wonder why the NBA didn't change his height to 6'8?  I thought they were not doing height in shoes anymore.? Okongwu is now listed at 6'8 when he was 6'9 in college.

Seems like we’ve added very good young depth in the front court. Even if Capela doesn’t pan out Collins, Knight, O-gu, and Bruno is still a solid rotation.
