We're running a 4 out 1 in offense. This guy along with Max are going to be running off screens and getting themselves open for catch and shoots, and he will be perfect for that.

Interesting. Let's see if he lives up to that nickname.

When will that be?
At the end of blown outs?
Certainly not with ISO ball offense from LBJ & AD on the court!

That’s the one thing that bothers me when you have an LBJ, Kobe on your team, they leave little time on the shot clock for others & most of time especially when they get older don’t run an offense & move the ball.

It was definitely part of the problem last year among many others.
If LBJ doesn’t do it, why should we attitude & effort from a lotta guys. Frank, didn’t have stress for togetherness but quite the opposite!

Just wondering if anyone is expecting Swider to actually do some significant minutes for our team this year. I for one can see a Kyle Korver role, if he shoot the way he shot in college. He looks like he has the bulk to play right away. He might be LBJ favorite target.



Watching this highlights and his 40+% 3pt and show more speed and athletic ability that Korver. But Korver is lights out.

In today's NBA you can't have enough shooters.

Going more and more position-less, having a 6'9" guy that can shoot lights out and be a big body is always useful.

I have a feeling Cole is going to be one of our better finds. People are going to say how did this guy slip through the cracks. He's a snipper cannot leave him open. Now with regards to Christie all I can say is meh.

Can he be Bron’s new Korver or is he way too slow to cover the perimeter defense?

You can see he's a lock to hold (at least) his 2-way deal this year. Speed of the pro game will be a tough adjustment, but he has a pro level skill for sure.

Man you guys are so much overreacting to 1 game, Swider already is the GOAT, because he shot 3-5 from three, Christie is the bum, because he could not make a shot, all of that based on one freaking Summer League game...lol its so ridiculous.

Very well could be this season. But long run, Christie has NBA stopper defensive upside and if you can get his shot right, could be a very good player. Have to remember he's a young 19 years old. Remember what Ingram looked like when he first started at 19? He couldn't even jump off of one leg. That's where most 19 year olds in the American system start (Foreign players tend to get pro training at a younger age).

So glad that this guy is good and his shot is money.

Makes up for the terrible 35th pick.

It's a terrible pick after one game? Wow. A 19yr old kid who already plays defense, grabbed nine rebounds in his first game, and whose shot didn't fall, ok you got us there.

I like what I see already, and I can see why the FO was unanimous in picking him.
