    With Jake shooting and handling the ball the way he does, Meyers might want to consider learning how to play under the basket. Just a thought.

    He already has one: Sunshine. I posted it in the Parsons vs. Layman thread.

    Between Jake's first 8 minutes of play, and Turner's first 4 games (these are legit sample sizes, right?), this just bolsters my opinion that Olshey is master of the draft, and doofus of Free Agency. :)

    The only question that remains is: what else does SAC need to kick in to make the trade acceptable? Future 1st round pick(s)? Cash considerations? I say both!

    So you are saying if Terry/Neil feels confident that Jake can start at SF, then it frees up our other players to trade? Can't say it has not crossed my mind.

    Pat Connaughton Career 3-point shooting: 5-21

    Jake Layman 3-point shooting last night: 5-7

    During his rookie year, it took Pat Connaughton until March to reach 17 cumulative points scored.

    It took Jake Layman 8 minutes. He's like Chuck Norris with 3-point range.

    Add an umlaut to his name and he's already your favorite player.

    So far, not the best use of $140+ million dollars.
