    I don't think Derrick Williams can be an NBA PF. I thought he was being groomed as a 3?

    Dante Cunningham is a 5 in a 3's body. He can make open 15' jumpers, and give you energy, but he's not a wing player.

    Was Roy mobile? It looked like he had an off shooting game.

    D-Will is kind of in a pickle at his point. He dropped weight to become a 3 and now he's playing the 4.

    In terms of Cunningham, the only thing wrong with him is that he wasn't blessed with Dwight Howard's body. If he had a couple inches and maybe some more muscle, he could do some scary things.

    People are going to give Roy a lot of flack about not being explosive and quick during the opener. Problem is that he never was. Roy was always a smooth player who had deceptive speed. That's the way he works and thats how he always will be. In terms of his performance, his shooting was more unlucky than atrocious (seemed like every shot rimmed out). He really locked it down in the end though. It was old school Nate McMillan-iso Roy kinda ball.
