I've always been a fan of this kids game. He just knows how to score. You watch him and you wonder if he would be amazing if he got his body right, or if he needs those pounds to play the style he does.

I'm leaning towards the former. I think he's going to be hard to keep off the floor this year. Summer reports are that he is looking good. I guess we will get a chance to check him out here in summer league. I'm expecting good things.

So, if any of you out there want a spot on the island I suggest you get down here and sign up now before of the spots are taken.
 
Sign me up! I share your optimism, but like you I'm a little weary about him adapting to playing at a significantly lower weight. We'll know soon enough with summer league starting on Monday, I think.
 
I’m in… it will be fun at very least
 
i'm all for him playing better, and he is looking good. one question, what is he? let's pretend he loses forty lbs, does that make him a small forward? power forward? he's way too short for a center. skill wise, he's really agile but he's not very tall. what is his ideal playing weight? no, it isn't 300 lbs, he isn't tall enough for that. he is probably tall enough for either small or power forward, which is he better suited to? (i have liked him from the first time he played against the jazz. mesmerizing movement for someone his size)

He moves well for an Island.

Edit: homey beat me to the island joke.
 
I'm trying to not get attached to Lofton because he seems like the type of player that you really like but ends up getting waived for some reason.
 
I'm not a fan, yet. His defense is just so unwatchable. If he loses weight and becomes capable of playing D then I could get on board.

I do think he has a chance of summer league mvp. He's good enough to put up numbers, but not so good that he'll get pulled early.
 
Sign me up, too. I think he has a very good feel for the game. When he comes in, he impacts the game. Was impressed with his passing. Looking forward to seeing him at a slimmed down weight..
