    Decent games by both as Swanigan was a bit more consistent and solid and looks like Baldwin had some decent stats but also some bad stats. At least they both got serious minutes.

    Rather they play somewhere than not play at all.

    I like Biggies story so much. I really, really wish his foot speed was better.

    Swanigan may or may not make it, but Mark Bryant wasn't an athletic pf and had marginal foot speed and ended up playing 15 years in the league so who knows. He does have a nose for rebounds though.

    The G-League? we need to send Swanigan to Australia ... at least until Elon Musk will figure out a way to send people to Mars, when that happens - we should definitely send him to Mars.

    Mark Bryant wouldn’t be in the NBA if he played today. Guys like Swanigan are dinosaurs. I can’t think of one guy with that profile that’s actually contributing for anyone right now.

    Yeah. He's a great kid. I liked watching him play at Purdue, And was happy when we drafted him. Hopefully, he balls out the next couple of years and finds ways to improve his game.
