There is video as well. You can see his size and strength for his age is impressive.

i am really liking shved, but let's not go TOO crazy. to assume he's now a starter might be jumping the gun a bit. he's shown he can definitely playy though.

If you could put Shved and Mudiay in the back court look out. Mudiay is the real deal the speed with his size makes him my number two overall pick. I like Towns but to me he is a 3-4 year project center. Russell is nice player but lacks athleticism and more a half court player he isn't a fast break player.

I think Schved will be okay. Nothing special though.

It's gonna be tough if Towns is on the board with Mudiay when we pick.

To be fair Shved played a lot for T-Wolves I believe he was a rising star. There is a difference between Lin and Shved. Shved was buried on the rockets bench didn't get run so it seems he isn't good player if you don't get PT. Lin basically came out of nowhere he didn't get major run in His previous destinations before the Knicks.

Couldn't disagree more with this statement...With his passing ability and the way he sees the floor, he'd be ideal to lead the fast break similar to Magic...He'd be a tremendous open court player....

He didn't play a lot for the T wolves - He did play well when he started for Rubio, but that was 16 games. His overall numbers weren't that good if you take those 16 games out.
He averaged 20 minutes & shot 30% & 29 % from three. That was his 1st year there. The next year he got 10 minutes a game & was of no consequence.

I hope he turns out okay, Time will tell but I'm not going to declare him anything more than ordinary for the time being.

That is still more run than Lin got.

I wasn't comparing Schved to Lin, never said that.

I just said Lin's Cinderella run made me suspect of short bursts of good play.
Then I pointed out that schved hasn't really done much other than a short burst himself & you have to admit, it was a short burst in Minnesota & the next year he did nothing at all...continuing to this point right now.
Maybe he'll maintain a consistent level of play.
I see it to believe it. He's got the opportunity now, that's for sure.

There's nothing wrong with having a Mudiay and Shved if it came to that, but I think it would be better to put a legit 3 and D SG next to Shved.

That's a bricklayer of a backcourt- neither of them can shoot. All teams would have to do would be pack the paint. Would you prefer Russell and Schved? Do they complement each other (haven't watched enough of Russell)

I think Russell's transistion game is too slow for the NBA.....Eventually, any team that drafts him, will have to pair him with a fast PG. Then Russell will have the issue of guarding SG. Russell is a tweener right now....It's up to him to decide if he wants to improve his quickness and be a PG or increase his strength to guard SG.

This is why Mudiay has always been ahead of Russell....Because he has the NBA body to guard SG's and quickness to guard PG. Russell is a shifty player that needs the right system to shine. In the right system, he could be a beast....But what system is that?

I like Russells half court game.....But I like Mudiays transistion game. Both players have their pros and cons. Russell has been inconsistant lately, but we'll see what he does in the tourney!

You're right- I look on him as new version of Magic Johnson.
