Hope he gets healthy soon. He doesn't really address our defensive issues, as he's known as a bad defender, but the shooting and rebounding will be helpful. |

I believe he is a better defender than his reputation but just an average rebounder at this time. |

Actually looked like a plus defender in the SPL. I was surprised by his speed and lateral quickness. _________________ R.I.P. Doc Buss |

Moe has those quick hands. I bet he's a real pest fronting guys and poking the ball away now and again even if he gets beaten up in the post as a skinnier rookie. _________________ Under New Management |

It seems to me though like he's made out of glass. My God he should have recovered already It's been like 3 months since the SPL injury. |

Remember, our medical staff doesn't have the best track record IE, Lonzo's 'knee contusion' form last year and BI's groin injury |

We wanted the next Kevin Durant, the next Jason Kidd but in reality our great hope is the next Dirk Nowitzki .
... but seriously, I hope he can be good enough to get backup center minutes. If he's capable of not being a defensive liability for 10-12 minutes a game as a center, he's pretty much guaranteed minutes simply because we have no one else. _________________ “Life is too short.

As long as he's getting stronger, that's fine. |

It would be great to learn his real injury. You don’t wear a massive knee brace for a knee contusion. |

^ Finally. Yes!
Three things from the video:
1. Elite defense, he shutdown the offensive player
2. I like his shot. Wish he held his follow through instead of moving his body right after.
3. BI's stroke is looking nice. |

Have we gotten a straight answer on what his injury is/was? Are we supposed to believe he's been out for 3 months with a knee bruise? |

Most impressive things about this video...BI and Lance's shooting. |

We need this kid to get all the way healthy and show out once he's back because he's our only viable option for back up 5. |

We tend to treat our boys like snow flakes. No rush is the motto. |

Yes do a quick search on knee contusion. Depends on severity. |
