    He's a power forward who's skill set is perfect for this team....in theory. Hopefully it pans out.

    The world ain't ready for that nurk Collins duo. Best part is when nurk sits the offense doesn't have to change.

    A good rebounder who can score around the rim, stretch the floor and is a good shot blocker. Why the hate? He is exactly what we needed and we can start developing him immediately because we have a void in this position.

    Just because Meyers is shit doesn't mean he has to be too. You'd also hate Porzingis two years ago because he is a white center/power forward?

    I'm not sure who to compare him to, the player that comes to mind is Rasheed Wallace, in terms of being long, tough, athletic, can score inside and outside, good defender. Dude plays like he has balls.

    well, the next hour and a half is going to be more boring than I'd expected. ;)

    I don't know anything about him, so I can't really comment. Just hope he proves worth the trade/pick.

    I mean a lot seem to like it. Im not feeling it and am scared of Meyers 2.0, but I hope the lot of you for it are right. Still we could have kept our #20 pick and given up the 26th.
