Reminds me a bit of LeVert in that regard. Very calm but he's got some swagger to him too
And Nic scores again. Dude runs the floor like a cheetah

The thought of having Joe Harris, Prince, and Durant on the floor at the same time is INSANE.

-If temple can hit threes at a solid rate he is going to have a big impact. he was always a decent 3 point shooter but he seems to be really agresive with it now that we ecnourage it.
-Levert is a different player when his 3 is falling and when he is pass first on drives. he was both today. hopefully he can continue to build off the momentum
-Prince is a better healthier DMC. im not sure there is someone who fit this team better then he does. he will be a huge addition
-nothing but eyeball test to back this up but it seems like a ton less iso this year
-i like that claxton loves to dunk. reminds me of kmart. bring alot of energy. bench clearly loves when he does something...
cant wait for real games to start

Given the value on Levert's deal, that put a nice cap on a Prince extension. Prince should get between the MLE and LeVert. Prince could roll the dice and hope to cash in during a very week FA year, but i could see the Nets willing to do a 3/$32mil extension.
That being said, rookie deals have to be extended before the season.

Apparently, Claxton used to be known as “Slim Reaper.” He explained further to Matt Brooks of ESNY.
They used to call me ‘Slim Reaper’ back when I was at Georgia. And I … like that because I’ve got a slim frame, but I’m ferocious.
Can’t do much better than “Slim Reaper.”
At the same time, Claxton has to perform in order to live up to the name. Because you can’t be any type of reaper, slim or grim, and not leave an impression.

You can't be called the slim reaper while Durant is still in the league. The fact that Durant is on the same team makes it even worse.
