I think it is a little too early to give up on those kids. But if the right deal present itself, please pull the trigger

I am confused about anyone who can make definitive calls on thanassis or early; thanassis played in D-League last year and outside of Crush, I don't recall anyone watching him consistently. Early has barely gotten minutes.

well that's the point isn't it... early is not going to get consistent mins with the logjam at forward. and thanassis doesn't need consistent mins to produce on defense.

what does early do with his inconsistent mins?
at this point, wouldn't you agree that thanassis is showing more on the floor than early? dont want to make it about thanassis vs early, but i'd rather keep the defense oriented guy.

Way (WAY!) to early to judge this kid. Lets stop being so impatient.

thanassis hasn't played, like, at ALL. 3 minutes this preseason. Early has gotten 30+.

i think you are making my point, or am i being prejudiced in what i see from early vs thanassis.

I am wondering how you can judge thanassis at all, he hasn't played.

i saw the summer league games, last year's dleague games, and the few mins he played this preseason. liked what i saw in effort and potential. seen more games and minutes from early reflecting his inconistency.
