This made me smile....

Connelly (Denver GM) on attempting to get Jimmy Butler:"We were in play for a lot of guys, but we got Trey Lyles."

Really feel like DL and Quin love the fact that he's a defense first guy who is dynamic offensively (something Exum is sorely lacking).

Cool.

This kid's built like a tank. Got enough string beans on this team need an enforcer. Gotta love the fact that he took a swipe at Grayson Allen. Forget "Judas" Hill, we score Beverly this team will be ready to ball with anybody.

I haven't seen anywhere that he is a lockdown defender. If he is despite his size then it's great.
I am not trying to **** on him at all. I was high on Trey Burke before we dumped 14 and 21 picks for him and don't want to get burnt again so when I see "questionable shot selection" in the scouting report I am genuinely unimpressed.

Trey lacked NBA size, speed, length, and athleticism.

DM has the length, athleticism and doesn't have the ego Trey had. DM is coming into the situation knowing that he will need to compete and that he's a role player.

Trey thought he was the best player on the team......

He didn't fix Burks.

Burks lacks the necessary BBIQ.

He's a great interview. He also just exudes natural leadership. I wouldn't be shocked to see him be the leader of this team in 2-3 years.

I'm impressed with his interview. Bright and affable. Should quickly be a fan favorite.

I'm watching his videos and it seems like he's a more athletic version of George Hill to me, obviously a worse shooter though. Is that a terrible comparison?

Offensively he seems more dynamic than George Hill to me. George Hill to me is pass first. DM seems to look for his own shot a lot more. Which to me is great because we already have so many passers on our team (provided GH comes back).
