How will Monk look if he gets too excited by seeing Ball's flair 1st hand and starts trying to make similar passes when he doesn't actually have that ability?

Dude - Ball can't guard point guards. Small Forwards would tear him a new one.

I had a feeling a lot of good players were gonna fall at 32. I am hoping for either Saddiq Bey, Tyler Bey, Isaiah Joe, JaDen McDaniels at 32

Ball shouldn't be anywhere near the post defensively.... for at least 3 years

it's much appreciated and we are really starting to see the dividends

He'll be guarding the worst backup wing so Monk can guard the backup PG while playing SG on offense.

That fractured accent hurts my ears.

I don't get it - I've lived in North America for 15 years now and I still pretty much sound the same as I did when I left home. I feel like this accent is more permanent than a tattoo.

My kids can't imitate an Aussie accent. They sound like drunk Britts when they try.

It makes me sad.
