    Lyles wouldn't be a bad option. It will be interesting to see if Olshey uses the spot on a young guy with some upside or a seasoned vet.

    I think he is somewhat of a duplication of Skal. I remember him lighting us up in some summer league games.
    I would say no but at the same time I think he still has the potential to be decent.

    Definitely an Olshey pickup. I would like this. A different player than Skal.

    Just think if drones had been available when you launched helium balloons in Memorial Coliseum?!

    Is it troubling to anyone else that a guy who our division rival says isn't worth keeping around would be seen as a good pickup for us?

    I vote "Depends" on the poll.
    You don't have that option and it can get really messy....

    His numbers suck. He's a PF that doesn't shoot 50%.

    I'm good. Not sure why @illmatic99 was so ecstatic about him.

    Depends on the reason. Are they over stocked at his position?

    Hmm. A former starter traded for value because a new, better starter usurped his role is not quite the same.

    Lyles seems similar to Dante Cunningham to me. Not terrible but definitely not good.
