Nice wrap-around dime by Rozier; it helps to make up for the corner air-ball on the previous possession.

Why is Cody Martin not playing every single game?

Monk is playing some savvy basketball tonight. Not everything he tries works, but he has a creativity otherwise lacking on this team.

Miles is going to be a very, very good player. Hes not going anywhere. Defensive awareness is a damn joke, but 95% of the time it's not for lack of effort. He will get better.

Bridges is trying to show up all those folks who say he was a wasted pick.

Miles improvement on his 3 ball is excellent. But that's literally all it looks like he worked on, but that's what everyone said he needed to work on. Now that he has that down I think the sky is the limit for him. He will only get better. I absolutely do not get the him and Monk comparisons. Hell hes a better shooter than Monk and that wasn't even strength. I'll continue to hold hope in Miles even in some of his absolutely horrific games.

I’m always happy to be proven wrong in situations like these.

I hope he makes me look like a damn fool for doubting him.

...don't judge guys on rare games when they don't miss man lol

i WILL say that we've actually put bridges in the high post more tonight than we have all year. he's actually not run from contact from once too and taken advantage of a mismatch. that's good - and he needs to keep it up whether he's on fire and full of confidence or not

His only thing coming out of college was his shot. Hes obviously worked on that. He can use his right hand, probably more than he should. I think hes going to be great.

He plays better without Washington. Up to the coaches in the off season to implement them together and get Miles use to playing with him. It's no fault of PJs as hes actually probably going to be better than Miles and already is.

I'm sure Coach Borrego would really love to win this game. Let's see who he rolls out in the fourth quarter.
