Seems like a great character piece --but also showed he can play---has a smooth J. I like him much more so than Vildoza for the team

I was surprised by his defensive tenacity and movement on that end of the court...Can't recall how he fought through picks, but he seems to have a good wingspan, and that one steal of his was pretty.

Down the line, having him and McBride as guards in the same lineup coming off the bench could be fun to watch.

Seems like a heady player...Definitely high energy.

Given our roster this year, I think it would be best for him to play overseas, though I wouldn't mind keeping him around here. I just think it would be better for him if he could get 20+ MPG on a good European team, assuming those are the type of minutes he expects to get over there.

Like McBride, I think we got a steal at #34.

He will be good! I think playing in Barcelona for a year or even two will only be good for him! They are a top team in Spain and the EuroLeague which is GREAT competition!
Help defence, activity level and heady overall play will be best tought there and hammered in during the games! :-)
He should see the floor quite a bit on the team in Barca.
I also like him more than Vildoza to be honest - also based on this time line...
In 2-3 years a guard rotation of IQ, McBride and him could be very solide on both sides of the floor while providing different styles of PG play!

“Nice kid.” Awe, lets give him some new kicks and a sweatband.
Ron Baker, he was a nice kid. Cool hair, tough as nails, blue collar vibe, and he writes kids books!
But wait, then he got paid, then he hurt his shoulder, then he not such a nice kid?

Kuz. Blonde locks, hot wife, great find. We let hm go. “Oh the humanity, Fiz screwed him!” We wuz wronged!!!! Nobody picked him up. Nice kid. How that happen?

Frank! 18 year old from a single mom who immigrated from Nigeria, raised 3 kids, first two professionals from studious work, and frank a slender ball player protege at 18. Great kid! Wait, Triple said he is selfish because rumor is he wants to be PG. 4 years later he is not a good kid anymore? WTF? He rape anyone? Get arrested? Nope, despite his great defense he is offensively tentative. Bad kid.

Alonzo Trier? Kid wronged? Not drafted? Former Projected lottery pick and top 8th grader on the cover of The NY Times magazine!
Good kid? Nope, never. Self entitled ego.

Roksa now our new pet “Nice” kid? Hey, I hope he is the next Dragic and steal of the draft. “Nice”? Ok, he can date my daughter.
