    I'm not giving up on him as a prospect yet. I think he might be able to be a serviceable role player in a couple years, but he's nowhere near ready right now. Probably won't be ready until he's 25 or 26. Sucks we have to wait to roster spots on guys you can't play right now.

    I've heard from sources inside the locker room that Tony is going out of his way to mentor him and the dude will have none of it, thinks he knows everything, total Machiavellian

    Let this be a reminder to everyone how little training camp performance matters. And not just Forbes.. Dedmon looked unathletic and terrible.

    Small sample size syndrome at its best!

    I can forgive Forbes' physical shortcomings. He can't do much about those. I can't forgive his hesitation. You're out there to shoot, bud. You get the ball behind the arc with breathing room, and that shot needs to go up. Don't drive or pass unless they start blocking the shots.

    The only point to his signing was his ability to shoot threes. When you get your chance as a rookie, you have to know what is expected of you and not hesitate. Your post is spot on.

    The kid is shrinking from the moment and that is a terrible sign. I can't see him on this roster past this season.

    Considering our current PG-SG rotation that was a clear mistake on the FO.

    No matter if we ring or not this years roster moves and final look is at least questionable and the FO should be accountable.

    Everything from the Manu contract, to the lack of an NBA Caliber starter at PG, passing thru the little things (LJC sign n cut, Laprovittola, Forbes) has been at least odd.

    Those two things say all that needs to be said about Forbes.
