JV just gave him the highest praise so far

[enlightenment]

Wow, JV, chill on the hype!!!

What he said?

What he said?

Said Bruno is really young but already looks pretty good. And if he keeps up what he's doing, he could be one of the best players in the league.

Still, you want the kid believing that kind of thing, so I'm totally cool with it. Don't want him to think there are limits to how good he can be.

...Don't want him to think there are limits to how good he can be.

Lots of folks, even on this forum, already putting limits to how good he can be. Could be a fun 2-3 years watching him grow. It's been fun watching JV. It would be fun to see Ross take that step this year.

short little interview with bruno. i assume he must have gone through a translator.

interesting snippet that i didnt know

You don’t know the Bruno Caboclo who got a late call from the Brazilian National Team to be in the roster to defend Brazil on the FIBA World Cup in Spain but opted to decline it to be in a full-time training program with the Raptors during the whole summer.

Bruno doesn't have a translator anymore and he can speak English a lot better then before due to him taking English lessons with a tutor everyday since he got here

He sure does have a translator available, have you not seen any of the videos posted from training camp, many times he has to look to his translator to understand a question. His English has gotten much better, but he still struggles.

Yeah, but he's progressed at a very encouraging pace. He'll probably need the translator around this season, but it's not hard to think he could be good by next season.

he definitely needs a translator still. my friend lives in the same building as him and runs into him all of the time. he can't carry a basic conversation yet.

Considering he couldn't speak or understand anything three months ago I'd say he's making great progress.

I'm basing my judgement off of the video posted on the main page by Tim W who interviewed him at training camp
