 i'd say based on summer league play he looks closer to a real NBA player than Young and Hunter, even Bentil. he's hit some 3's, had some nice drives, and doesn't seem that lost.
  Its surprising.
I'm thinking I might rather see him get the chance to hang around longer then those 3.

 any other fans out there of the egyptian dwight powell ??? :)

I would have gotten rid of Young a year ago.

Agree. Kid looked good. Played D pretty well and took the ball to the hole. I hope they keep giving him minutes in the summer league. Brown looked like his knee was holding him back. Young is terrible.

Impressive. Nader might turn out to be the IT of the 2016 draft

So far down at the d league...

I'd rather not because that would most likely mean that Brown busts.

Nader never outplayed Brown in the summer league. Im 100% sure that if Brown is sent to the Red Claws, he'd look like a superstar out there. There is no one on the D-league who can beat you off the dribble, create contact and draw fouls like Jaylen does.

2014-15 and 2015-16 combined:

Right around 18 ppg, 5 rpg, 2 apg
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

I watch the games sometimes and they just don't play defense. This, of course runs in the face of calling it "D league."

Also,it isn't Nader's fault that the opposing team watches you run down and score.

To conclude, I am not sure of Nader's defense either. Wish we had room up here to see what he's got...Ainge is due to get a starter out of the second round might as well be Abdul.

C,s need sg scorer. Give up on Young and give Nader a chance. Also bring Zizic in at earliest chance and find out if these 2 players are going to be in the mix going forward. bigs: Harford,KO,AJ,Zeller,Zizic and Jerebko.  MIds Crowder,Brown,Green g/f Smart SG:Bradley,Nader
pg IT,Rozier,Jackson . Lets find out ,who can we build on. Do we need a trade and who do we draft ?

dude, Jaylen is struggling to get playing time. young doesn't even play most nights. Nader wouldn't be ahead of either of them in the rotation

Young's stroke in shoot around the other day look Chrip and sweet. We will regret losing him. I hope he gets some minutes in the small lineup soon.
