Can't fault the effort level at least.

But it's gonna be tough to beat this team if both BI and RJ are no shows.

Not a bad quarter all things considered. Looked like we were gonna get blown out

Great defense by Gradey there. His rotations were on point!

Honestly, if the refs weren’t dreadful we’re winning.

RJ had some fouls, but tough to really evaluate 4 minutes (unless you’re dick - then I’ve concluded the guys clueless defensively)

He’s been good the last three games or so. I’d say his D his ahead of his O right now.

Made one bad rotation out on proctor but that was also a great touch pass from Nance in mid air.

IDK. One way to overcome signing IQ to that contract when he may not be a true lead guard, is too find a great value lead guard, as long as your able to give them a chance to adjust and make it work.

Fred was a good pg, helped us win a chip and a lot of games and is still in the middle of a great career.

I don’t know why Darko took Shead out either, Sam Mitchell.
