oh man, that play by rock was f&cking awesome.

he looks good out there, looks quick, agile, moving well -without pain.

If they think he can handle it, I'm ok with moving him into starting lineup - just don't overdo it with his mins but maybe just start him and play him 28-30 mins per game.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Brown would make the game so much easier for himself if he played within the offense.

Poor execution, you’re better than this error.

Edit: I know what you were going for, but the - hurts.

Ohhh. IDK about that?
White is more Versatile. But, Brogdon is better as a BallHandler/Scorer.


Scoring is very important, but White/Smart are just MILES ahead defensively.

No Question.

Safe to say Grant and JB don't see eye to eye lol. Cut down on the dumb and this is a 20-pt victory.

Whoever says Jaylen’s aggression is a double edged sword is pretty spot on lol.

It’s why he’s as good as he is, but it’s also what hurts him at times. But I think it’s tied to feel for the game. Awesome half though, regardless.

Disliking the most boneheaded, selfish player we’ve had in eons? Probably.

I'd say it's close enough between Brogdon and Smart depending on what your team needs from it's PG as in the end they're both complimentary starting pieces to the stars on the team.

But White isn't even close to either of their level.
