Deuce fits into the starting lineup perfectly if JB does pick up his 5th. Ya know our defense will be a lot better.

Feels like he's been getting better guarding POA vs point guards after struggling early season with those quick guys.


for sure - since december he seems to have been much better

and especially these last 2 games - what he did to fox and how well he is defending Jar is damn impressive

Could do a lot worse than him as the replacement for iHart

Right! He’s not that bad a passer. And his dribbling has gotten better … thank goodness. Though I still held my breath on those two coast-to-coast drives. He was looking like Dr. J on those.

I trust Payne more for running the offense right now. Though Deuce is getting close.

it's wild how the 9th player on a team can show that he is a talented freak athlete - just goes to show how elite the stars of this league truly are. it's why basketball is the best sport. these are the most talented athletes in the world.
