Wow, Pete, you judge Kedrick by a preseason against guys who can't make the
NBDL, a game where he had a couple of rebounds and his reputation as a
defender.  Why not wait until there's some PROOF that he can handle the TEAM
defensive assignments, score more than 8 pts in 20 minutes and/or pick up 5
or 6 rebounds.  I'd expect that from a guy drafted #11 in his second year.

I'm more worried about what he can do when he's HEALTHY than IF he's
healthy.
