I want to see Jett in with this unit.

Pretty much what he did all last year.

Disagree from a ‘running the offense perspective’. He was REALLY good at getting his and moving the ball last year but he’s looking like a legit PG right now.

Black doesn't even try at all to do anything with the ball most possessions :cry:

He gets it and pretty much immediately looks to pass.

I’m worried… and he was the kid I wanted at 6 (or Cam). I’m not worried about bad plays. I’m worried with the reluctance to do anything when he has the ball.

The way Black’s uniform isn’t lining up is bothering me.

I'm not super worried or anything. He's young and his head is probably spinning.

But the rookie head spinning thing is even more noticeable when you aren't comfortable shooting or scoring.

Whitmore doesn't know what he's doing either, ya know? But he's got an aggressive mindset so he can mindlessly attack and have success.

If you’re going to play Black and Cole together the ball can’t be in Anthony hands all the time. Maybe I gave Mosley too much credit…
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

It hasn't been, everybody is pretty much touching it. Black is passing it off right away tho.

Wow is it going to be a breakout season for Kira Lewis or something?

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

I can't take another season of teams able to get shots off and make while the time is winding down.
