The "Rebuild" is over guys...this team will compete next season.

I expect we will see glimpses of him being a solid role player, but I also expect that he will get injured along the way. -
Actually these are just different people's opinions.

Wow, I just had quite a scare. I attempted to look up Glen Grunwald and accidentally looked up Ernie Grunfeld. Grunfeld was Washington's version of Chris Wallace, only worse.

NOt run the break. Run the break. -
I like Cho I like the moves he made in Charlotte even though they didn't really pan out I like the players he drafted at their position. You could see the intent behind the selections. It wasn't like Wallace and his checklist that he went through.

Here you go overselling your guy to make the competition look bad. They say Coby can't shoot over longer defender yet he did it all through college, say he's not ambidextrous but in his strengths they say he can finish with either hand comfortably, you say he's undersized but he's 6'5 185 he's a skinny 19 year old. Your guy is 20lbs bigger with a second year of college weight training, Coby can't shoot elite enough so here goes the if he's not a superstar rookie he's not good enough approach 😑.....your guy's second sentence weakness "Doesn't exhibit alpha dog mentality" just what we need another guy who doesn't have it in him to take over when need be. Nothin suggest Nickeil is elite at anything and his multiple poor performances throughout the season suggest he's a good role player that can get hot from time to time. Other posters have already exposed him for shrinking up in big games.... I'll play your game though you know who was similar to his size with a good wingspan and had a cerebral approach to the game? Wade Baldwin and we saw how that worked out....I was ok with let's see how good he is in a work out despite already knowing about his poor performances against tougher competition. However now he's just some scrub you prefer to talk about instead of the main guys everyone else is talking about Nickeil Alexander-Walker is not better than Coby White so stop pretending he is.

Run the break??!! Are you kidding? I hope you mean run the floor, because you usually have to be able to dribble and pass to run the break. -
Me too, he may be able to score but I'd never pick him. I'd take tacko over him 27 times a day.

When the ABA merged with the NBA, only 4 teams joined the league (Pacers, Nuggets, Spurs & Nets). The rest had their players dispersed around the league. -
Well, I recognized both of their names, so I know they are basketball guys and that's good. But honestly I don't know how good, or bad, these guys were at their previous positions so someone who knows can maybe fill in the rest of us. Someone mentioned too many cooks in the kitchen and that was my first thought. I'm not a fan of managing by committee...it doesn't work. But if these guys were brought in to be advisors to the guy who's going to take ownership for all the moves, then that might be okay. Either way, I'm going to be optimistic that these are steps in the right direction. NOW LET'S GET US A GOOD COACH!!!

he is a defensive specialist that can run the break. He may even be an elite defensive specialist. He is more athletic than slowmo. In fact, I think slowmo is not a great fit for this current team. I'd like to see him traded. -

I agree with you KBM except for Bruno. He spend a large part of the season not showing a lot and just stand up when the games were end of season one playing teams without lot of interests to win or uncomplete. For me Bruno is a roaster player but is far from beeing a starter. We need to have better than him if we want to be competitive. -

Well, at least they fille dout the front office before bringing in a coach. (assuming these are the last guys being hired). Now, let's fine out where we're picking in the draft, come up with a go forward strategy and then hire a coach that fits your strategy. We'll see how this plays out. I never understood why teams hire coaches before front office people. It's just screaming that a conflict will happen.

Add in Alex-Walker to the starting lineup and I'm with ya. Mike Conley Nickeil Alexander-Walker Bruno Caboclo Jaren Jackson jr Jonas Valanciunas This is a balanced lineup that can play inside out basketball, can rebound, can shoot 3's and play in the pick and roll. This would be a GREAT lineup. -

I doubt if that counted in the NBA, didn't they disband that team? -

I remember JV being a starter for Toronto and it doesn't mean he was a bench player just because a new coach wasn't starting him. I don't know how things will play out with the new coach or the draft but this team has the capability to be a much better team next year. As for MC, I have never thought he was an elite guard but a good 1 none the less. If he is still here next year and I believe he will, he doesn't need to have the attitude that he will have to carry the Grizz on his back. This team has players that can score the ball and he will need to be just another player on this team. When you consider the fact that the Grizz had 20 different players to lead them in scoring suggests that. You're not someone from the future so there is no way of telling how good Tor may have been if they played JV more. I would much rather have Leonard than DeRosan. -
Jaren struggled in the tournament too. Every year you have guys that play like stars in the tournament and they become duds in the nba. You have to look at the skillsets and project what they will be at the next level.
