I'd like to see what Humler got.
If Humler can be a steady, dependable passer, then definitely would like to see him out there w/the starters.

I hope Humler realize that we are loaded with upperclassmen at the pin and he don’t get frustrated if he doesn’t get much PT this year. Our pin hitters are just as talented as he is and have NCAA experience.
Rosey was the #6 recruit in his class and is a 2 year starter. SVT is a two time AA. They will be hard to unseat as starter. Filip should just work hard and his time will come next season. I know it will be a very tough adjustment for him because he was a stud in the Czech Republic and is not used to being on the bench.
Most of our foreign kids have came in and started or played a lot right away but there really is not a lot of room for Humler to play this year.

Humler may have a better chance seeing court time this season as Rado's backup. I've seen no clips of his passing and defense so that side of his game is a mystery. Rado does have his off days, not as steady hitting wise as Stijn.

Rado does have his off days, not as steady hitting wise as Stijn. Humler is a left side hitter. The highlights had him hitting left 100% of the time. I'm sure he was part of the passing rotation but not sure how good a passer he is. I doubt Charlie will use Humler as an OPP. If Rado struggles, Charlie would move SVT to OPP and put Cowell, Humler, or whomever else at OH. Rado is the starting OPP and SVT is the backup OPP. Next season, we go Dimitris Mouchlias coming in and he is a true OPP so no use wasting Humler's time training him to be an OPP. We need to replace 2 OH next season and Humler need to spend his time working there and not mess around playing another position.

It looks like Humler has been playing both right and left in fall training, he is a fiery and animated player. Rosey, Stijn and Cowell are playing at a high level and will be tough to beat on the left. Humler may have a better chance seeing court time this season as Rado's backup.

Setter is another spot with lots of depth, who do you suppose will see the most court time this season in a backup role at setter? Van Eekeren, Sheward, or Thelle? I'm biased towards Joe as starter, so steady day in and day out...the kid plays with heart. Feel free to agree or disagree.

6-8 Chinese??? Bwahahahaha....the dude probably going trip over he lines on the court. Any Chinese person bigger than 6-2 is probably on the clumsy side. No thanks. "Japanese swinger"..LOL
We do currently have a 6-6 "Chinese" Danny Wong but he is actually an American of Chinese ancestry so he is really not a "Chinese".

Have you seen either of the Chinese National teams? I’m sure it was just a crude joke on your part but both of those teams have solid height where they need it and are always incredible defensively. Just confused about how you formed that opinion...

Just confused about how you formed that opinion... To be honest I was half joking and half serious. The mention of a Chinese player just brought back memories of a Chinese basketball player we had a few years back. He was 6-9 but clumsy. Of course, not all Chinese players are clumsy BUT.....there is no way the Chinese Government is going to allow their elite level players to play in the US. Those in the pipeline to the Chinese National Team will never be allowed to play in the US . The Chinese will allow the projects and those who are not good enough ....to venture over here and play . Make no sense for Charlie to go there and bring back a “project” when he can find projects right here in the US.

Not sure if he’s still playing in the NBA.
