Bradley is such a Hooper. He can be our Danny Green. All he needs is a simplied role on offense

If AB now starts to play his bulldog defense, he'll be a a super bargain throughout his contract. That three point shot looks smooth, did he change his mechanics?

Thing is, you WANT a player to be able to take one or two dribbles inside the line when the 3 is challenged - it's about recognition and selection, not either-or

Gustavo Ayon looks like the long lost brother of Antonio Big Foot Silva...
Good assessment:

Who was it that Scal and Mike said played for us in Summer League a while back? Only heard the tail end of that conversation.

Looked at their roster because I'm not watching the game. It was Jaycee Carrol 3-4 years ago.
