if memory serves me correctly, we looked at christmas a couple of times during workouts right?
SO i say we look at bringing him in and alade aminu. aminu might be a good low post presence if we choose to add more depth there
Xmas and Heytvelt would both be worth a look IMO but with out a "rookie" team this year not sure how we'd work them...I understand LB is trying to place our guys (rooks and one yrs.) but he sounded concerned about them getting playing time...so how would we see these guys in game situations before camp...?

We should definitely look at Xmas, Adrien, and Heytvelt.

What do you mean? how could we use those players?

No, how we evaluate them.
I'm thinking scrimmage with the Hawks?

Well we've already worked Xmas out, correct? If they need advice they can ask me. I've been scouting him since the beginning of the year :p
I think guys like Adrien don't need to be evaluated per se, you know what you're going to get with him--fouls and rebounds.
What do you mean? how could we use those players?
Since we will not have a summer league team...how do we "evaluate them" in game type conditions vs. workouts...?
We should definitely look at Xmas, Adrien, and Heytvelt.
Swedd...I like all three of these guys and would like for us to get them in camp...but if we don't do something soon (FO) I'm afraid other teams are going to get them for their summer league teams...and we do not have one...so there it is!
There are some nice undrafted players I would love to get in for our SL team.
Xmas
Adrien
Aminu
Harris
McNeal
Oh wait, we don't have a SL team!!
It is going to be kind of difficult to do that slam...no summer league team...can't really see what these guys can do...think teej suggested scrimmages with the Haws...I think...
Someone in the FO should take some initiative...contact 3 of the other teams not planning to have an SL team...everyone put their rooks, first years and two invites and go with...most invites are "fodder" anyway...then share the expenses...

we may not have a spot open or we may need all our open spots b/c we are planning to bring someone in in FA. If we really liked somebody we would not have sold our other pick

I think the plan is to partner up with a team or two that does have a SL team and to send our rooks to them for some summer action.

If we didn't already have 2 pg's I would say check out Tyrese Rice. I still remember the 46 he put on UNC and Felton.

That was on the 09 Heels but still it was impressive as hell I remember he had like 30 in the first half.
Xmas has a good chance to make the Philly squad they need more shooters sucks for us tho :mad:

You're right, I mean Lawson when I said Felton. I think Tyrese Rice would be going for his PHD now if he lit up Felton for 46. The unc guards blur together for me, but at least I didn't call him King Rice, Dante Calabria or Derrick Phelps. Hell at least I got the decade right this time.
Well...if nothing else I'd like us to bring Heytvelt in for a closer inspection...I'd like to have a larger "big" that is more offense oriented as an option...
Anyone hearing we're looking at any of these guys for camp or playing for us on SL team?
