    That says 3 games played. I ran into the same problem with ESPN.

    Look at those advanced stats though.

    112.7 offensive rating
    91.6 defensive rating
    21.1 Net rating
    64.7 EFG%
    64.4 TS%

    Did you compare them with Swani's and Vonleh's (2016 & 2015 preseason stats)?

    Collins needs weight and experience. We don't need a skinny Meyers Leonard from the 3.

    Exactly. If that was Meyers he'd go on about how much "he knows he can bring to the team and what impact he knows he can make" and all sorts of excuses. Zach just owns up to playing shitty and moves on.

    You're right. I was more referring to the second sentence I quoted rather than the first.

    This. One of my pet peeves about Vonleh isn't that he couldn't shoot, it was that unguarded he refused to even look at the basket.

    Both the rookies have looked excellent in pre-season so far. Collins has so much potential he should be seeing the floor immediately, a baptism of fire is what would serve him best.
    So, naturally, I expect Stotts will do the opposite and serve up the 'Meyers Leonard' path of integration. Sporadic, confidence shattering minutes and forcing him to play Center even though he would flourish as a PF.

    I think he and Ed are good dudes, but I really think they should be traded this year, probably Vonleh too so they don't have to pay him.

    Ed should be resigned IMO. We'll retain him for cheap. He can backup the 5/4 spots. We need another big besides Nurk/Caleb/Collins. Vonleh is probably are best trade piece.
