    I was surprised to see how well he moves with the ball. Pretty damn athletic.

    Don't believe he could be signed to a 2way deal.

    Does it seem like Cronin has decided not to keep waiting til after Lillard is traded to see who is coming back? He's decided he better start building a roster. Moses Brown and now Knox. How many spots are still open?

    Knox makes 14 so no more spots that we have to fill but we can take on one more.

    Well, he's clearly taking Herros minutes.

    I actually think he has more upside than Watford did. Not a bad pickup.

    If by "more upside" you mean "jumps higher" then I agree.

    I think he played more under control and rebounded better. At any rate, he'll be waiving a towel a lot more than likely

    I disagree with you here.

    Watford was underrated for what he contributed

    Neither project to be valuable role guys so they're not worth arguing about.

    At least Wat was an interesting scorer and passer. Man without home defensively. Too slow to play the perimeter and impossible to build good defensive lineups with him at 5.

    Knox is smooth, long and can shoot a little bit I don't see what he does at even an average NBA level.

    Haven't been a believer in him since early in his Kentucky days.

    yeah...we disagree. I think Watford was a good distributor with a motor for sure...to me he's a classic tweener. Glad he got a shot in the east but I liked Knox more than Trendon as a project.

    We are even fucking backer than when we signed Moses Brown.

    I'm just glad to see us have a roster start to form.
