Some really great performances tonight, but gotta go with Elf for getting the team back on the same page.

Can easily make an argument for anyone, but man it was great seeing Elf on the court. Really initiated the offense and had some big defensive plays as well.

I’ll probably go with Elf too but Simmons deserves some recognition. His addition alone has helped our bench tremendously. At one point in the 4th quarter he had outscored the Knicks in the quarter 11-10. Having a reliable go-to scorer on the bench is such a massive improvement over last season.

Elf clearly was the engine tonight. Everyone in the SL played great offensively. Except Ross... always except Ross. Evan, AG and Nik all shot 50% or better from 3 combining to go 10 for 18. Evan turned the ball over a bit (4) but made up for it with 5 steals and a block. Nik had 4 steals and a block. Rebounding was weak across the board, except for Elf with 6. Our starting bigs combined for 9 so that's something to work on. All in all, great offensive game, glad to get the win, but our defense and rebounding still need a lot of work.

Coin toss Ross... except it's like were flipping a double sided coin that only lands on bad Ross.




At least he made his threes and didn't take too many shots tonight though.

Also went with Elf, double digit ast in his 1st game back is an impressive feat.

The offense is just smoother when he's running the show. It's not only exciting to see all the lobs and drop offs he executes but when our big three scorers are getting easy buckets they are less likely to force things out there.

love to see Simmons "Ice" the game for us like a great closer in Baseball.

Since he doesn't like "Juice" we should call him Ice!

Dilly Dilly?

I don't understand why Ross is still starting? Can someone fill me in the mystery advanced stat that indicates he's a positive when starting?

We literally have a better defender in Isaac that can fill in quite nicely or a better versatile player in Simmons...is this a don't fix it if it ain't broken situation?

I went with Elf. A lot of guys played well tonight, so it could easily go to any of them. I felt Elf had the biggest impact on the game though. He personally had a good game obviously, but it was pretty apparent how much more comfortable everyone else looked out there when he was playing.

Went with Elfgod, but I have to post an honorable mention to Simms. We needed someone to remind the team that driving to the hoop is a good thing. Makes the defense double think.

Oh, and I maybe already take for granted the super consistent three we have (Fournier, AG, Vooch).

Elfrid set the pace all night. Gets my vote.

Can we trade Ross for a guy like kyle anderson?
Or a shooter like mcdermott,babbit?

He doesn't really play that all that well and has been losing his defensive assignments as of late. Hopefully he can get consistent with his 3pt shooting again so that his confidence can return.

I voted AG but then immediately regretted it despite the fact he played very well. Elfrid should definitely get this vest. He was the maestro of the offense all night and was a big key of us looking like the Orlando Magic that came out with that blazing 6-2 start to the season. We have a lot of work to do but this team can certainly be a factor this year if we can just stay healthy.
