De'Aaron Fox is averaging

17.5pts
7.5ast
4reb

47%/38%

I had no clue he was putting up these kind of numbers.

He seems to have shaken off his rookie blues. Last year had a lot of talent between the surprises, the early bloomers, and the fact that some will probably still show up next year.

He needs to be more consistent.

On that note, checked in on him tonight: 6 for 25 with 4 turnovers.

Yeah, his free agency is going to be crazy. He's currently 22yrs old but will be 23 when free agency hits. Ultimately by the end of the year he will probably average around 17-20 points, 5reb, 5ast. I'm not sure what that gets you in terms of dollars.

It’s good to see that Smush’s legacy still lives atop the NBA all time records.

In OT tonight he's got 26 on 10-26 shooting and 8 TO's He's getting more points because he's shooting more.... still a 40% shooter. At least the knee hasn't sidelined him this year..... yet.

Just watching an interview with Lowry... Seems like maybe he isn't thrilled to have Kawhi there taking the spotlight... Anyone heard anything similar?
Also heard that Kawhi cooled on coming to LA because he got worried about dealing with previous associates in his Hometown... Heard that too?

I ask because I think we're a team that needs another star and I'm wondering who that could be... Reports are we were including Ingram in Butler discussions... If that's the case, it seems like we'd given up on a mid season trade for anyone better...

Kawhi seems pretty happy in Toronto so far... I still have no idea why KD would leave GSW... Although I think we got a good shot at him if he does... AD would be an absolute crack-pipe dream...

The Magic thing with Luke still concerns me too... Because I wonder if that was when he realized no one else was coming...

Are we about to drop full max money on a post Achilles Rupture Cousins?

Super early, I know, but some of our dead-weight comes into play in Dec and I was just wondering what the trade market realistically looks like for us... Seems pretty bad.

This post scares me...... I haven't heard any of this but I could see the impatience of Magic bringing in a Cousins type in desperation.

Ingram is at least playing at a level where he has value to someone. Unfortunately Ball isn't playing at a level that would force a deal for a top level player. Kuz seems to be fitting the best of the 3 but I'll bet teams are asking for him in front of Ball as well.

We need a perimeter player.... not necessarily a 3 point specialist but a guy who can get his own from the guard position.

Monster 3 qtrs by Randle before running out of gas

iamworthy · Post #554 » by **iamworthy** » Tue Dec 4, 2018 3:35 am

Randle had 37/8/4

With 3 three's

Sedale Threatt · Post #555 » by **Sedale Threatt** » Tue Dec 4, 2018 3:52 am

Russell had 30 points ... on 31 shots

Post #556 » by **Danny Darko** » Tue Dec 4, 2018 3:53 am

I miss watching the Randle that he's morphed into and his Barkly strength.

Watching Clarkson and Dlo guard each other... yeesh man. They are both playing in their own personal allstar game in their approach to playing D

Yeah, Randle's stat line looked better.

Sedale Threatt · Post #558 » by **Sedale Threatt** » Tue Dec 4, 2018 4:52 am

It does hurt to see Julius dominating to this extent. Better make that sacrifice pay off this summer...

Post #559 » by **TyCobb** » Tue Dec 4, 2018 6:02 am

Wish we still had Randle as well.
