mobley is a good player but he still hasn't really developed into an offensive option that can be relied on. not sure he ever will.

Not sure what Mobley you are talking about. His 3 point shooting is vastly improved and at 24 he's going to get better.

Yeah this is really great. On the other end, KAT seems kinda off. Hopefully he can figure it out.

If Hukporti can keep showing promise as a Kevon Looney type center I think we just offer Milwaukee KAT and whatever other draft picks are available and say take it or leave it.

It was always going to be KAT for Giannis. Don't let the media fool you.

Looks like Mike gonna use a lot of Kolek off the bench instead of Clarkson, he gonna love going to Mikal offensively and for KAT to shoot more 3s...

But I think unfortunately cap's production gonna decline a little this season, still all star/ all nba though

He's a genuine win-first guy. Besides, he's the next KNICK Coach!!!

So far, it's kinda obvious that the Cave are NO LONGER in our weight class. We too strong physically, and that is their biggest weakness.

Love what I'm seeing from Bridges, OG Deuce and Huk. Cap is gonna do Captain things, but with WAAAY less pressure.

We're a dangerous team.

He was literally one of the few positives for them on offense in the first half. He wasn’t the problem.

he's scoring in this game but i just don't know he's gonna be the guy they thought he was gonna develop into

It has to be because I'm not trading OG or Mikal.

I think Brown now has the ability to play guys depending on how they're doing. Brunson and Clarkson don't make much sense to play together...but again the Brunson/Deuce minutes together look excellent.

Both Mikal and OG played great...if we can find a way to keep them around the 36 minute mark and switching off the POA defense to give them some rest...they should be able to keep up great energy.

Love how we crashed the boards.

And we generate some really good 3's...brunson didn't even have a great half he missed some shots he typically makes. A couple sloppy turnovers later in 2nd as well led to easy baskets. That should be cleaned up.

Well we def wont see Jemison but I am leaning towards Hart taking Kolek's minutes.
