HeHateMe 697 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 I can see this team running two effective systems. A "run the floor pop and press" with all the young athleticism. And a half court "pick and roll/pop have a man back" with a few young guns and some guys like baby, nicholson, etc Roster is not near complete but here's my ideal lineups Run run run 1. Jameer 2. Oladipo 3. Harkless 4. Harris 5. Davis Half court 1. Beno 2. Afflalo 3. Dequan jones 4. Nicholson 5. Vuc Mix and match as you will. I'm also extremely drunk right now but to me this makes some sort of sense. You must have been really drunk to write up that second lineup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Neighborhood Bully 266 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 Turner will do well, and I like that they are once again choosing someone with ties to the team. Still, Guokas was stellar, and at some point, I hope we hear the full story of his departure. If the other option was Nick Anderson, I support Turner 100%.

MagicFanInNevada 51 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 Henny said in his presser that he sees Oladipo as a guard. Does anyone think that they may see Victor as playing a little PG as well? As someone mentioned earlier, he does kinda remind you of a Russell Westbrook coming out of college. Westbrook and Oladipo both had similar stats coming out while posing the same positives and weaknesses. Athletically gifted, great defense, needs to work on outside shot and handles. Maybe Rob sees him in a similar mold. Who knows Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love Nick but he always throws in too many umms and uhhhs while organizing his thoughts on tv....I don't think I could handle that for a full game. Jeff is a solid but not spectacular choice.

Maybe Rob sees him in a similar mold. Who knows There's quote from Coach Crean (Krean?) in which he says they had Dipo run point in practice and for about 5 minutes each game last season to push him. He seems to think its possible. I believe JV said they intend to use him in different ways in the summer league to see exactly what he can do. I can't imagine him having the vision/passing ability to play the point, but it sure would be great if he could. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tkranole 19 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 Does anyone remember the details on the draft pick we got from Philly in the Dwight trade? They seem to be in full tank mode now so that could work out well for us. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
