putting a dent on NBA rosters - even the ones that were drafted in 2nd round or had to go free agent route

Mays with Hawks
Smart with Bucks
Waters time with Celtics
Reid has been getting minutes
Watford with Blazers
Cam Thomas getting solid minutes on a loaded roster sans Irving
etc.

These guys are obviously prepared when they get there
Impressive work by Wade!

It’s wild how underrated our players are coming out compared to how well they do.

It's huge for recruiting. They see former Wade players on NBA rosters, and they know that Wade will get them NBA ready.

Naz going undrafted made no sense to me.

It was clear as day his skill set was much more favorable to the NBA style of play. I thought he was top 15 pick worthy coming out.

Cam Thomas should be getting extended run with Harden and Brown out with covid.

He had been getting about 18 -22 before that even.

He’s struggling with his shooting in the league now. He’s become a better distributor and a better defender

He’s actually playing more than I thought . He had 18 points the other night and he’s hit some big time clutch 3s in the 3rd quarter the other night when they were really struggling to get a bucket. He’s no doubt won at least one game with his timely shots in that game

Naz came into NBA workouts way overweight and out of shape. There’s a lot of speculation as to why, people said that he didn’t wanna leave LSU but that his dad wanted it and it was a bit of rebellion on his part. But as soon as he got right and started playing Minnesota gave him a deal and he’s been a good player for them so it’s worked out for him because he’s a good player.

The biggest selling point for Wade is how well he’s proven to develop guys. Watch Waters and Mays for example, especially Mays. I’m sure skylar is thankful everyday for General Wade

You edited and still didn't get it right. Don't get upset when someone tries to correct you. If you want to downvote and stay a retard, by all means, go for it. Most of the rant acts this way. Or you can choose to progress and learn. Don't be a dumb MFer.

So Irving can't play because he won't get vax'd in order to prevent him from getting Covid, meanwhile vax'd players are getting covid everywhere.

Common sense and rational thought has left the majority of the human race. Let them decide what they want to put in their body and if they get Covid, they sit. Just like players have covid now and are sitting, and they were vax'd.
Sorry for the digression, this crap is getting old. Way to go Cam.

Yah all of them are getting valuable Mins than that 350 lb zion Williamson kid. I can't see why Nola drafted that kid anyway, he barely played in 3 years since he been a pro. He was injured in college and he more interested in eating than performing on the court. They need a basketball player not an eating machine
