I mean hes explosive, and makes the right plays. What are your chances that Rozier makes the roster, and plays more than ten minutes?

Rozier could be slotted into a lot of different lineups, especially during ATO plays plays Stevens sets up.

I don't want to get too excited about a couple of pre-season games against crappy opponents, BUT, I will say that what I have seen has some part of me thinking:

"Maybe Terry Rozier is the answer to the question, 'What if Avery Bradley could actually dribble?'"

It's you and Danny at the absolute very least

Rozier could be slotted into a lot of different lineups, especially during ATO plays plays Stevens sets up.

Chances he makes the roster: 100%

Chances he plays more than 10 minutes: 100% if you mean for the season, 10% if you mean on average (which would take a major injury to Smart, AB, or IT)
I'm bitter.

I am stoked, I confess, it was not a glamour pick in my eyes, but I love the kid now.

I recognized Rozier's upside once I really looked into him after the draft, and he definitely showed off flashes at SL, but I wasn't expecting him to put it all together in games so quickly. I'm being careful not to overreact to the preseason right now, but TROZE has looked really outstanding so far. I'm very encouraged by his unexpectedly silky shot and truly freakish athleticism.

Maybe not more than 10 min at first, but he will get his chances through the season. There's just no way that Marcus and IT will play the whole season withou having rest, now and then.

You forgot 'and could get to the free throw line'.

Read that last line again. One more time.

The thing is Bradley was a specialist in corner 3's. Rozier can shoot threes, but he isn't a skilled shooter. We'll see if it can translate to the NBA.

I'm just not too convinced as of now. I'm very excited to see Rozier on the court handling the point. Like Smart, Rozier has that won't die down attitude.

I mentioned in another thread that if Rozier plays well enough to gain more minutes, Turner, Smart and AB could be affected. I like the fact that we have a guy who, maybe not this season, could take over the ball handling, score points and fit with this team.

CBS has a few things to watch this season. Who does Rozier work best with? Who, from Smart, AB and Rozier goes (with IT here surely only two could stay).

It would be great if Rozier proved to be an NBA ready player. I expect it will take a season and the mix will sort itself out about All Star time. There is a lot to be positive about for the future.

He's played a handful of minutes against the nba d league.  He's not that good yet.  In 3 months when his turnover to points ration is through the roof, the blog will be flooded with trade scenarios.

I believe Rozier will be in the guard rotation, with Smart, Bradley and IT, and play consistent minutes.  His speed, PG and scoring abilities will make him more useful some nights than others but he will play close to 20 minutes on average.

I see a Reggie Jackson comparison, when he was with the Thunder.

He is going to gain value a lot quicker than AB .  Danny may get several of these guys looking good and swap them and picks for a disgruntled STAR
