Nice quick pass by Watson to set up Baylor for that 3 ball. Watson showing high feel, good court vision, unselfishness there..

Glue guy.

So Jordan’s playing with the old heads. House should get a chance in Maine. Rico knocks down a tre.

OMG Walsh is ferociously incompetent on offense.

I like when he drives and kicks out. More of that.

Put Baylor back in the game. He needs the shots; also keep Walsh from shooting.

I think Watson should have tried attacking the basket and getting to the rim there on that post up attempt, rather than taking the fadeaway.

Maybe he was thinking the defender was taller so did't want to take it inside on him. But I saw some clips the other day where Watson took the ball right at Donovan Clingan last season and scored on him at the rim - twice..

Not bringing Peterson back is questionable....


After what happened with Scrubb last summer I’m sure they’re being overly cautious with Neems, Peterson and JD. Those guys showed what they can do last season in Maine. They’ll have camp to prove some more but I bet Peterson makes it. Rest of these games are to fill some spots in Maine.

Fun fact: Michael Grady, the male portion of today's announcers used to be the in-house entertainment person (you know does all the on court during timeouts arena stuff) for the Pacers, then became their PA announcer and and nobody realized it was the same person he was such an amazing chameleon. Now he's play by play guy for the Wolves. When he was in Indy I talked basketball with him for like an hour during a minor league baseball game. His date and my now ex-wife were not pleased, but I recognized him from going to Celtics games in Indy, and he was glad to talk hoops.

Another ugly game with turnovers and low level of talent.

I'm gonna need a stronger drink for this one lol.

Harper could be a good contributor in Maine. Not someone I see making the jump, but could be a good teammate for development guys we send up there.

Read on Twitter

His shooting might not have been the worst part of his game. :(

That was a rough and monotonous First Quarter like the sands of time clunking up in the hourglass...

Just like Brad Stevens has a thing for big men who can pass, I think the same applies to guards who can block. White, Holiday, and according to his draft profile, throw Ramsey on that list too.

Ron Harper Jr. Jaelen House. Anyone else in this game who had a dad who played in the league?
