This team is just incapable of getting blown out, and that points to a very competitive nature of the players.

You just can't be angry about that.

Bey looks like a bigger Butler. Gotta wait to truly see what he can become, but early returns are he is a legitimate piece on a winning team.

I dont think hes going to have the handles and quickness that Butler has. Butler obv got way better from rookie till later but you can't expect that as normal growth as Butler has historic work ethic. Bey will of course have better shooting ability. I see Bey as what could be a 3-4option 3nD guy on a title contender. Very nice player at pick 19.

not saying we would have won, but i think the wheels really fell off in the fourth when wright went out with his groin injury. dennis smith struggles to score at the best of times and the grizzlies pretty much invited him to try to beat them. jackson also tried to force things at times because someone needed to step up and he just ended up taking some bad shots/making some bad turnovers.

again, not saying we would've won but it would have been more competitive down the stretch with wright in place of smith. it was a little deflating to fight back just to get blown out in like the last five minutes.

Wright's injury will likely keep him out for a week or more. Plenty minutes for Dennis Smith Jr. and Saben Lee to show what they can do.

With Wright out, our second unit is likely
Sekou
Stewart
Josh Jackson
Lee
Svi

The average age of our second unit would then be 21.2 years.
