But smart froobs think he's not an NBA player and will be in Europe by next Thursday.
Forget the video evidence of Oturu playing in an NBA game. We’ll just chalk that up to fake news. Oturu is an NBA player in name only! Gol dang it!!

Word is we were super high on him, but I don't think anyone on the planet was high on him at number one. Looks good though. I don't think he can fix all the problems in Cleveland, but he looks good.

at least we're seeing edwards and he's getting court time. extremely early, but EARLY ON he's one of the rooks getting the most PT.

1. Okoro (30:18 MPG) 16.5/2/2.5/1.5/0
2. Maledon (29:08 MPG) 20/5/2/0/0
3. Vassell (27:39 MPG) 11.5/5/1.5/3.5/.5
4. Ellerby (27:11 MPG) 4/2/1.5/.5/.5 (i know, who the hell is cj ellerby?)
5. Williams (26:35 MPG) 12.5/3/0/1.5/0
6. Edwards (25:04 MPG) 8.5/4/1.5/1/0

I like our draft. Edwards should be starting, still not sure why he isn't on this shitty squad. McDaniels actually looks like he can be a huge piece for us. I like his play.

immanuel quickley is looking like a second round steal for NYK. he's got a chance to be their starting point guard.

Golden State plays a ton of national televised games. The national media Wiseman boners are going to be long and strong after his nice game last night.

I called him Manu Jr. predraft. Though I didn’t like the Edwards pick, I’m coming around on him. Good overall draft so far.

We didn't need him. We brought back a 30 year old PG who wasn't any better than mediocre his first stint here and this fan base jumped for joy.

Well they are great at dragging the busts out by never playing them.

It will take about 3 years at this rate to figure out we took the wrong guy. Buy the GM a little time.

Next year will be "Let's give the guy a chance he wasn't used right"

Year after will be "Time for Edwards to take the next step"

Year after that will be "This guy sucks and has no value"
