TyTy and Livingston are actually intriguing young players. There might be something there, with both of them.

Needless to say Dre is still the GOAT and should be in our rotation this year.

MarJon made me kinda sad tonight but it’s all good. Would like to see him get some minutes with Giannis/Dame in one of the future games to hopefully get him some easy buckets and boost his confidence a bit.

Marjon seems to be one of those guys who needs things to be going well offensively to crank up his effort all the way.

That concerns me. He just floats through so much of the game, and looks kinda lost unless the action comes to him both offensively and defensively. He had some good defensive moments tonight, but the energy isn’t always there, and off-ball is a little further behind.

Livingston seemed to make more of an impact on the game in 7 minutes than marjon made in 22 minutes.

Also enough with the Lindell Wigginton experiment. There is no reason why he should be playing more than Dre, Livingston, and TyTy. We have actually interesting young talent now, play them.

AJJ gives me Michael Carter Williams vibes ... good physical tools but incomplete basketball player

Beauchamp gives me Donte Divincenzo vibes ... good physical tools but he is a slow learner. It will take him 2-3 more years to figure things out.

Really wished Marjon flashed more. He did some alright things for a rookie last season but we gotta see more.

More TyTy for me too, please.

AJJ’s jumper didn’t look as bad as it did in college and he does just about everything else correctly.

I still don’t see “it” with Marjon. At least not right now. He’s a pretty long way off from making a significant, consistent impact, IMO.

Green also sank another 3 but it was erased due to a questionable moving screen called on AJJ.

I remember thinking about this years ago, when I've met people from this board they just haven't been who I thought they'd be, but then I'd also never really constructed a mental image of who I thought they'd be so it was even weirder.

Except for AB, he's an adonis. blame rasho found online photos of him years ago so I already knew how glorious he was.

Memory is fading, I do not remember this. :lol: :lol:

I dunno if MarJon needs some Ritalin or a wank before the game but he needs something. Gets in his own way a bit when he doesn't start well.

I can't really think of anyone AJJ reminds me of less.

Which shouldn't surprise me I suppose.

6'6 athlete, playmaker who can't shoot. There's something there superficially.

One has a high Bball IQ, the other doesn't have a Bball IQ. One has hands of stone. The other actually has a feel for the ball (touch on his passes is evident). I'd also be pretty stunned if AJJ wasn't a SUBSTANTIALLY better finisher. Pretty major differences.

I was looking forward to seeing Livingston, he just looks like an Nba player. Loved him with marjon, Dre, and tyty. I think we would’ve pulled out the victory if he would’ve come in earlier instead of wiggles. That group was fun to watch
