I'm all for Shabazz starting and Brewer off the bench where he belongs.

Well, if that happens it means Shabazz made some massive strides during the offseason. He was certainly not ready to start for us last year.
He's one of the more unique wings I've ever seen. He can't dribble, can't hit a pull-up jumper, can't go right, and can't pass. On the other hand, he has a pretty reliable go-to move with that lefty push shot, is relentless on the offensive glass, and is physical enough to get to the line at a decent rate. If he learns how to defend and hit catch-and-shoot jumpers, we might have something.

Note: This isn't even summer league. It was a scrimmage. Nothing that happened means absoultly nothing. zip, zero nada. Even if Bazz scored a 100 or Lavine did a 1080 dunk.
Think people are just happy to see something potentially franchise-changing to root for. There's no denying LaVine's potential, and that in itself is enough to get me excited.
I'm almost positive people said the same thing about Derrick Williams, about Jonny Flynn, Wes Johnson. They all looked good in summer league. Oozing with potential they were
I didn't say the same thing about Wes, Flynn or Derrick. And I actually liked all three coming out of college. I not only saw all three in Summer League. I also saw them live in pre-draft workouts. None of them came close to showing the combination of athleticism, skills and instincts I saw from LaVine last night.
