Harry was 0 for 5 FG with 6 FTM in first half (6 pts), then came back shooting 8 of 13 FG in 2nd half and ends the game with 25 pts and shot 8 of 12 FT. He never disappoints in 2nd half, how many reb he got? At least 4 reb.

PJ3 however, had a disappointed game, 5 pts and 3 reb? Very very disappointed.

Zeller's D was deplorable at the end. With 2 seconds left, what else could Rivers do but shoot.... get up on him for **** sakes. That's what happens when you have a culture with no accountabiliy and no fundamentals. ROY BALL.

Why does it not make sense?
Think he meant that he's had better games but this win's the best one yet.

Still, a team picking 10th or 11th might be on board with getting a 20 and 6 Evans/Stuckey talent and the chance to whip him into shape. Last year everyone knew Marshon Brooks had as much 20ppg ability as anyone in the draft, but was declared a Ricky Davis type chucker/loser - But Brooks so far has apparantely had a great attitude, so you just don't know, talent is talent.

I could see New Orleans going SF/PF/C their first pick, and PG their 2nd. And Phoenix looking for a guy to fill Nash's shoes. Wroten comes into workouts, looks good, all of a sudden he goes top 10


& That is why my sleeper pick this year is Austin Rivers. Talent is talent, and it's hard to name a better scorer than him in this class.


Not so much a sleeper anymore? Barnes & Rivers on this roster next season or bust.

Ahh, that's true. Sounded funny as I listened but when you put it that way it makes sense.

Right now, Quincy Miller, Harrison Barnes, MKG, Bradley Beal and Tony Wroten are my guys.

I like Beal and Barnes the most outside of Anthony Davis.

I think I'd MUCH rather draft Drummond than PJ3. PJ3 is going to be bust if he doesn't land in the perfect scenario

I didn't watch the game but I'd assume T Rob played with heart and aggressive. Steely is probably afraid of the next insult he has on us will get him banned, I guess it sucks for him cos he can't freely use his trolling power anymore.
