Sydney Kings Offseason Recruitment Report

I still would prefer we didn't play Thornton at PG, even if that's what he'd be doing in the NBA... We shouldn't be a training ground for potential NBA players forsaking what our actual team needs... Looking at how he was shooting on his first day, Marcus is definitely the outside shooter we need and pushing him into a role that doesn't fit him or the team would be stupid...

But saying that, if our guards are on form, and Brandt actually keeps his pre-season form unlike when he was under pressure as a starter last season, then yes, definitely a great problem to have, finding minutes for in form players, instead of trying to find form for players with minutes...

This is probably the most stoked I've been for a Sydney team since they've been back, so fingers crossed they can all gel and Chill gets here soon!

the Kings since returning to the league have never had a good backup centre for Ogilvy, Khazzouh or Crosswhite but Brandt with his starters experience last season will be highly valuable and if he eats into Garlepp's minutes then that is a dream scenario for Coach Cotter to be able to think he can throw anyone on court and they will gel and deliver the effort he requires (Garlepp looks lazy and plays that way at times so if he gets the tough love that Hammer gave him at times then he won't see minutes) and with enough ballhandlers there to do anything...

Personally I would start Caddee and have Markovic coming off the bench but if Caddee is the 3rd string PG then that wouldn't suprise me either.

What an excellent headache Cotter has

I'd think with Khazzouh, Childress, and Brandt off the bench, rebounds shouldn't be a problem. Having said that, if Brandt's form against LSU is an indication of how he plays this year, he might be cutting in to Garlepp's minutes too.

For mind if they can get all their point guards all working together and pushing each other and Garlepp can get more than 4 boards a game then this squad will see the top spot on the ladder for a large portion of the season
