DEAL! In a heartbeat. And you all know how I like Vesely.

Thanks for the heads up, going to watch it now.

Damn. I'm getting MIami--NC State instead of the G town game. Kansas Oklahoma St. is on though. Marcus Smart versus Ben McLemore. Smart is having a hell of a game. I'm getting it on MASN.

I don't think this team has the coaches to teach or develop a player. Ask yourself who has grown and really shown. Who's better? To me, that's a bigger indictment than the X's and O's. I thinkwe have players willing to work, that we we've gotten rid of a lot of the knuckleheads, but I don't see growth at least not growth beyond what a player learns by simple on the court experience.
For that reason, unless we are going to go with a new staff a really raw, high potential guy like Vesely is all but useless on this roster... not just today, but going forward.
Wow, OSU is pretty good. They are putting it to Kansas pretty hard.

McLemore just pulled two John Walls (chasedown blocks). He's struggling on offense though. Turning it over a bit and hasn't been able to get some good looks yet. Yet as I type that he just showed off a nasty spin move on a drive to the rim for a finger roll finish.
McLemore can get to the rim off the dribble on straight line drives. That spin move shows he has some ability to go off script and finish. But what I want to see is him change directions and change hands on his drives and prove he's improving his handle.

Now he just splashed an open corner 3. He is automatic on open jumpers from the perimeter. I wish he was three inches taller. If he was 6'7 he'd be the first overall pick most likely. And he'd be exactly who we need.

James McAdoo, 22 points and 10 rebounds on 8-12 shooting. Starting to come into his own.

Otto Porter doesn't seem to be able to jump very high. He's surprisingly effective but I keep waiting for him to jump for any reason and he doesn't. Has anyone seen him dunk? I'm sure he can but he doesn't seem to like it.

Wrong thread. Whoops.

fwiw. Porter got in early foul trouble which is why you haven't seen much of him.
He still has 7pts, 3-3 from the field.
What about Anthony Bennett
Same for McLemore and Withey if anyone is watching Kansas. Not McLemore's best shooting game today. He's gotten blocked at least twice that I've seen. But he's got two blocks of his own. Having a little trouble dealing with all the raw athleticism of OK St.

What could Chicago realistically offer us for Vesely?
That'd be exactly the type of team that could actually develop him.

Porter, 10 points on 4 shots. I love how under control his game is. He never really seems to make bad plays. Very patient.

McLemore is heating up.

Indiana v. Michigan tonight should be good.

Entertaining game and big win for OK St. They've got a good team. Good showing from Smart and McLemore. Smart is really good, a top ten pick for sure. Makes a huge impact all over the place. Kind of reminds me of a PG version of MKG and Crash Wallace in some ways.

Maybe he's a bust. Maybe he isn't. Too early to make that call.

Noah has plantar fasciaiitis, i'd try to extract as much value as I could if we are going to deal Vesely.
Trading Vesely for other prospects makes no sense though. I'd consolidate half of our bench for quality bench players if at all possible. Seraphin+JC+Chris Singleton should net someone with a brain, at least that's my hope.

Damn, Noel just came down really awkwardly. Knee injury for sure, hopefully not too serious.
He's walking off, which usually doesn't mean much.
Lol, he's checking back in. Sweet.
