Looks like 2 good guards for you guys then Yep It's exciting - especially as the rumour is we have got Mo Walker as well (and him being a Brit leaves room for another US import still) However, we will have lost Williams and Holder , Washington, Hampton So no matter the quality coming in - there is serious quality leaving us That was already proven in BBL So I'm excited to see a new team but I'm wary that we had some great players we have lost at the same time But after all that without Europe to worry about I'm expecting us to win more trophies than last season |

Both guards look strong, assuming they're fit!
Seriously though, Leicester will be very good again, especially if the rumour of Mo Walker is true (although not the quickest feet on defence).
No news yet on Raheem M-T - is he headed back to Leicester?

No news yet on Raheem M-T - is he headed back to Leicester? He left us a couple of seasons ago?? Do you mean Josh ward hibbert? He has signed |

No, I meant Raheem May Thompson - hasn't signed anywhere else yet (and Cheshire, where he went, look full) so was wondering whether he was headed back to Leicester?
My sense is that with Anderson and JWH he would probably be surplus to requirements, but you never know.
I'm sure that your recruitment isn't finished yet but it is looking strong as long as they are all fit!

He wouldn't get the minutes with us he would get elsewhere He's a good GB player though and never let us down I think if we signed him it would be overkill |

Shane Walker would also be a good Brit signing for a BBL club
If he came back from wherever he went

Dunno where this Mo Walker rumour came from, he literally publically stated how much he hated the bbl

Raheem had a good season at Phoenix when he was with us, produced excellent results and made a lot of friends. Will be a useful addition to a BBL club.

“Wright joins the Riders out of Colorado Buffaloes where he averaged 7 points, 2.8 rebounds per game before his senior season was ended early“
Sounds like a decent signing...so long as he doesn’t turn up in a boot!

Mo Walker now confirmed.
Good looking squad being put together by Rob / Russell

Love when players come backto the bbl after saying how crap it is etc. Some players need to realise their ceiling

That's a massive signing for Leicester - possibly the signing of the season. Immediately favourites in my view.
It will be interesting to see if/ how others respond, including Eagles (very quiet on their recruitment so far this year - would love to know what they are up to).
I can only hope that Mo Walker is very expensive and that Leicester don't have too much budget left for other marquee signings, but suspect I will be disappointed with that as well!

Of course, if I were to adopt IRF's approach I would be doubting his talent, his mobility, his defence, his injury record, his talent and his motivation. And the effect of this recruitment on others like Thommo and Gamble. And of course it's the old favourites - lazy recruitment.
But fortunately I'm not as petty as that.

You mean that you don't plan to be afraid, be very afraid, etc?

Most signings can give you some element to question or doubt This one is beyond any questioning or doubt Fair play to El Basketo for breaking this signing a few days ago now As I have said many times before - whatsbev is the place you come to find out stuff before it happens This website really is at the top of its game tbh |
