Gafford with another good hustle play

I remain wholly unimpressed by Matas and would be very upset not only if we trade up fo him, but if we even draft him at 11

I'll go ahead and make a sig bet that Mikal is better by RPM this year than Zach.

Solid stretch by Dunn. Layup and 3 in rhythm.

If Gafford played all of Felicios mins we’d be winning.

Yep - I can see Gafford quickly becoming a fan favorite once he gets his game together. Great hustle

Yeah, they should break everyone's shooting wrist before the season starts or something. :roll:


Hmm doesn't seem feasible. Any other ideas how a league could adjust the number of 3s taken? Maybe take out their knee caps?

I saw that too. Dunn looks good when he's in rhythm. His dribble looked smooth during that stretch also. But it is very rare for Dunn to be in rhythm.

Him and White with the second unit should be great when the starters come out flat.

widen the court and make the corner three 22 feet or maybe make it a 2. Those are radical ideas but i can see something happening a few years it's almost like HRs and strikeouts in MLB right now. At a certain point the HR and three pointer get boring. Everything all the time and all that.

Thad Young is so off balance as a shooter. How do you not fix that after so many years in the league?

Young is not a SF. Hate this lineup.

His shot reminds me of Bill Cartwright's shot.

This might not be popular opinion, but Zack reminds me of the guy J.R Smith should have become if he reached his potential. Zach is obviously better and more dedicated to the game, But they had similar tools to work with starting out.

Everyone always does poor mans comparisons, but here is a rich mans comparison to a older player.

Eliminate defensive 3 in the key, stretch the line back by a foot, eliminate corner threes. That'd go a long ways towards restoring the inside and midrange game....without having to shatter any bones in the process.
