Out of this group The guys that will make the team or at least have a good chance to in order are (outside of walker and giddens)

Lester Hudson - I have confidence that he will be at least the 15th guy on our roster come trainning camp. His skills like shooting and overall baseketball skills are better than any guards on this roster imo.

Michael Sweetney - Based on experience alone i think he has a chance to make the team. His talents are evident, he reach(better than powe or bbd) and is strong. Biggest knock against him has been conditioning. Doubt he doesn't come into camp in the best shape of his career

Robert Swift - Only because danny has a mancrush on this kid. Injury prone and usually players as injured as him are unlikely to remain healthy for the rest of their careers. Fundamentally sound player otherwise with centre body

Outside chance to make the team - Mullins just because of his speed, dribbling and tenacious working abilities. Other than that is plain everywhere else , especially scoring

Kevin Rogers - Brandon Wallace clone that is quite athletic , has speed and can shoot jumpers. Lacks of strength is his knock

Danny i believe will take away 2 guys from this roster one guard who can play pg also and a hybrid c/pf

Who do you like?

Nick Fazekas could be a good player if he was closer to 250 pounds. He just seems to skinny to me. If we added that weight he would be in the Raef LaFrentz mold, and other than Raef's huge contract he was a pretty good player for most of his career.

Interested in seeing Swift, too. I assume Swift, Sweetney, and Walker will make up the starting front court. If he has a decent outting, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Danny signed him to a minimum 2-3 year project deal. Kid's ugly as all hell, but he really did have a bit of talent. Maybe there's still something there.

Pruitt will probably suck this summer league up, as well. (Just over 5 PPG in 2007 Vegas) I expect him to be cut. In the end, though it's probably going to be the Hudson and Bill Walker show, Featuring JR Giddens.
