Oh my god Stacey, shut up. Pat cannot be trusted to bring the ball up the floor, he can't even be trusted not to dribble it off his own foot.

Neutral on Matas and Ayo? They've been two of the few bright spots.

Pace has us with no legs.

I like what I’m seeing.
Pace. 3s. Much more movement.
No Craig. More Buz.

meh, not going to argue about a half of preseason too hard. Ayo still looks shaky on handle and Matas looks like he's 100lbs soaking wet. He has a ways to go.

Giddey looks slow as molasses due to time away with injury.

We will be fun to watch. It will take awhile to play with pace and not get tired.

White has 15 points on 13 shots with -17 plus minus. That lineup isn't working and it really won't work with him chucking so much.

Ayo is just a much better fit.

To be fair, I'm just box score watching.

Next to Giddey I think so.

CHSN… can you please have the classic score board?!

madvillian · Post #135 » by **madvillian** » Wed Oct 9, 2024 12:26 am

Decent minutes for Phillips here. Maybe he can be a rotation piece in a couple years.

Looks fine physically.

This roster is starting to look like a true AKME roster with all of the length.

We have a lot of length. Not sure how good they are at basketball, but it is something.

kind of wouldn't mind tht making the roster/rotation and doing some weird positionless stuff. might as well get freaky with it

If you magically removed the low effort bums in the starting lineup this could actually be a fun to watch tank team instead of a frustrating to watch not-quite-tank team.
