First Hendo , Hardon is a tough starting two guard in this league. But yesterday Hendo droped 21 on him and if fouls counted Hardon would have fouled out. Hendo has shown vast inprovement . I don't think we will have any truble at all with him backing up flap JACK.

UPS continues to deliver . Playing like a fringe starter . A solid back up to Crash. He even reminds me of Crash three years ago . Only he has a better jumper.

Lexy , GMs all over ORLANDO are creaming in thair pants about this kid this week . Stating things like hes a easly a top 10 pick in this bad draft class . Now a solid 7.1 272 pounds with the largest wing span in basketball. Others are seeing what Brown saw two years ago. Im thinking his stock has jumped from shit to good in just two days.

Fact is all three players would be lotery picks this year. Brown told us he all ready had his draft.

Hendo could be the next Kobe, UPS the next Lebron and Ajinca the next Olajuwon. We don't know it until they finally get minutes.

At the end of the day, it all depends on LB. If they won't get minutes next season and LB decides to sign a new bunch of old ass veterans, I'll be the first on the "Fire LB" bandwagon.

Everyone knows those kids can play, so there are no excuses for LB not to play them.

Considering we aren't going to be adding any big talent through FA, we need to give these guys a shot. They are all showing they deserve rotation minutes, LB needs to get it to them.

I agree that Hendo and UPS have looked very good...they should earn playing time with what they're showing...Ajinca still looks lost too often...I agree he has potential but I'm just not sold he ever delivers at the NBA level...I hope I'm wrong about that...

Thease sorry points can't keep thair man in frunt of them . Thats keeping Lexy out of position . Drawing fouls and preventing rebounds . Still his offence has shown very strong . With solid point play Lexys numbers would be much better. He just needs regular rotation play floor time . With that its no telling how good the kid could be.

dav...I'm watching again today (Celtics at 1:00)...not his points I'm worried about but his positioning...and guys have to know what to do when plays and rotations break down...he just does not (IMO) know what to do too often when that happens...

derrick brown i think will def get some PT, cuz he played atleast some last year. im really impressed with henderson mainly because his jumper looks better. i feel like he was already athletic enough, and well enough on D to play last year but LB doesnt have too many options we'll see what vet we get. ajinca is 50/50 to me, i think he'll get his chance to play but he better not show his lack of awareness or LB will yank him quicker then john rocker in ny

Im just saying in regular season . Plays wont break down that often . Watch the points today none of them has kept any one out of the lane so far.

Lexy does need work on rotations all so but floor time is the only thing thet would help that .

I agree Henderson has shown a lot of improvement but I'm not so sure about Derrick. He still looks like the out of control Derrick of last year but now against worse competition. And Lexy still doesnt even look as good as he did in the d league (yea i watched some d league games lol)

I agree that it would be nice to get these guys into the rotation. I think Hendo and Brown should both see some time. I don't know about Lexi though. If we're still 2 deep at PF and 3 deep at C when we break training camp, I'm not sure how he gets on the floor. Of course any one of TC, Nazr, Boris or TT could be gone by then, but if they aren't he will need to have made a significant step forward to crack the rotation.

Seriously. That is the most hyperbole overkill I've ever seen. Ever.

Also, I feel confident that all three will get more minutes next year. Especially Henderson as he's shown the ability to do exactly what LB asks of all of his players on offense: drive and draw the foul.
