I've noticed guys are always trying to strip AB. They must think his handle is suspect.

I wanted him all along at #18.

Getting Da Silva at #18 was a Steal.

The outside defender was in the passing lane. If he had thrown it earlier its a TO.

Good observation, you're right. Watched it and observed too quickly

Greg Anthony also didnt notice the defender, so you are in the company of a great!

AB is still weak with his left hand.

I wonder if Suggs is being molded as a PG now because they believe he has more upside there than AB and that AB will be developed into his sidekick 2-guard that can provide ball-handling, defense, and hitting the open shot.

TDS is good

Culver LOOKS the part, but there's like 1,000 dudes out there who look the part who aren't good enough to be in the NBA.

He just lacks feel.

Black & Jett where not as Good tonight but da silva was amazing and played withing the flow of the game. Absolutely nothing was forced. He may be our Jaime jaquez... perfect fit for the magic

TDS also grew 2 inches in college. If he was a 6'9" freshman, he may have gotten drafted.

Suggs always had point instincts. I think people need to give up on the idea of this team running any kind of traditional PG. We won’t see Chris Paul and the Suns kind of play here - the ball will be with Paolo and Franz and then they’ll have Suggs and Black as additional playmakers.

Like Culver certainly didn't have a *bad* game - 9 PTS, 7 REB, 5 AST, 2 STL - but you watch him and you watch TDS and the difference in basketball IQ is just jarring even though Culver's been in the NBA for four years.
