Okogie is going to struggle to get minutes if Layman and Graham continue to play this well.

Layman to Vonleh for the three. I like that.

Interviewer: "This is finally a modern NBA team, Gersson, and you deserve a lot of credit for what you've achieved."

For what exactly???

- Napier instead of Rose, Tyus. Draft Culver. Trade Dario
- The coach has got them shooting 3 pointers

Does that make us "modern"?

second unit blowing this game open. Napier taking the ball to the rim. Culver with a great adjustment to complete the alley oop and an excellent put back. Graham back in the game and looking good. Hope this is more about us than it is about Macabi Haifa, but the realist in me thinks it's more about Macabi Haifa.

That doesn't make us "modern"

I thought we drafted Culver instead of Hunter? :lol:

Loved the Layman block followed by the dunk.

Nothing wrong with Culvers 3 point stroke.
Edit: I jinxed him. He missed three in a row after the make. :-?

This Maccabi Haifa team has struggled hard this pre-season so take all of it with a grain of salt. Still fun to see what we look like when we are actually playing well though.

Target Center is emptier than my depleted soul 5 minutes into the morning economica lecture during sophomore year of college.

I am impressed by our depth at SG/SF. Wiggins, Layman, Nowell, Culver, RoCo, Okogie.

Very early to declare all that and I disagree with a lot of it. Herro and Cam Johnson over Culver. No. no way. NAW over Ja. No way.

Way early. NAW couldn't make a shot in todays game for example, but his boards and assists were excellent.
