Bolomboy should watch a whole bunch of Tristan Thompson tape. If he can become that with an occasional jumper, wow.

Yep. And if he were playing with Lebron, he'd already look a lot closer to TT than he currently does. Plus the jumper.

Bolomboy has found his range the last 3 or 4 games. for a guy who can finish and rebound like he does, the ability to knock down the open mid range and the corner three, that's a guy you want on/around the team. just too much talent and athleticism. you don't want him in europe. perhaps spurts in the dleague.

No doubt about it. Hard to believe he wasn't a late first round pick. Plus I like saying his name. It's going to be interesting for that 15th spot. Neto, Mack, Withey, Tibor, and Bolomboy.

Tibor can go.

By my count I have

1 Hill
2 Hood
3 Hayward
4 Favors
5 Gobert
6 Exum
7 Burks
8 J. Johnson
9 Lyles
10 Withey
11 Mack
12 Ingles
13 Diaw
14 Neto

That means Chris Johnson, Bolomboy and Pleiss are all fighting for the same spot unless we trade or cut one of Mack/Neto. It makes sense to bring all of them to the training camp and see if someone improves or gets hurt.
 
I'm just glad we are looking at 15+ guys we actually want to make the team. Last year, we really didn't care after 10 or 11

I didn't get to watch the game, so I watched the highlights, which can give an incomplete picture.

Does Ballin' Boy run the floor really well? It looked like he was outrunning the lakers 2 or 3 times.

Did he hit a corner three? He made three long jumpers.

He looks good when he starts and plays major minutes, not so much when he was backing up lyles. Can Ballin' Boy adapt to coming off the bench for short segments?

He dropped 21 on us. You are way off on Buddy.

Same with Bolomboy, who you were ready to give up on after one summer league game.

Bolomboy will have a nice Dleague career.

Hield was awful against us and awful all SL.

I mean, the answer is clearly to keep Bolomboy. Withey is better than Pleiss, and younger. Johnson ... I like him and appreciate his hustle, but there just isn't space on the roster. Not that Bolomboy is guaranteed to amount to anything, but I think you have to keep the young quasi-promising rookie on the roster over the old *** slow center and the wing who can't shoot.

Sucks that Pleiss has the guaranteed K. Hope Lindsay isn't afraid to cut bait with Pleiss just because he'll be ripped for cutting the two people we got back for Kanter. Sunk cost at this point. But I think Lindsay is smart enough to know that
