Was pleased to see the bench maintain — and actually expand! — the lead they were handed to start the 4th quarter tonight. Much better than the “whoops, need to put the starters back in” games from earlier this season.

I know they weren’t playing the toughest competition, but still. Good job bench!

In terms of shooting well from 3, Derrick White shot 45% from 3 in his last 10 games. Grant and Smart have been slumping though.

If PP was 2 inches taller he'd be an all star in 2 years.

Also i dont think he missed a free throw this year.

Imagine how great a young Ray Allen would be in today’s game? In his prime, he was not only a great shooter but a great slasher who could finish at the rim with authority.

You know, Ray Allen looked in pretty good shape, at the Retirement Ceremony. KG too, for that matter.

In last game against Nets, RW was -5 and Theis was +11. Theis will hold down the fort for Rob.

He didn't. He went 21-21 on the season.

He was 40-45 (88.9%) last season.

Ray Ray for me at least, was miles ahead of Klay Thompson and Klay is a really really good player.
There are some clips of him actually being aggresive and dunking in his early days - i can't remember him penetrating and dunking whilst playing for us at all.

Anyway. PP has a future for us. Unless a big trade comes up which might not depending on how well we do this year. I'm still all in on Dejounte but not happenng

Damn Pritchards split of 42/41/100 only rivaled by Tony snells 50/50/100 a couple years ago.

The way payton and Derrick have been shooting of late I feel really confident with their shot(especially payton) with the looks they’re gonna get.

Grant has tapered a lil bit lately he kind of fell in love with his dribble drive. Needs to rediscover his corner office swagger he had earlier.

I already ate some crow on Grant Williams. I used to call him Can't Williams. But so many mother **** Haters on Payton Pritchard. So many "he can't this or that". He wasn't an NBA player etc..

Other than BCGM, I was the only one screaming for Ime to play him and play him so much more.... I still am. It is so **** obvious what he brings to the table.

So many Mother f*ckers better start eating some **** CROW!!! :nod: 8-)

Grant seems like a highly intelligent individual with a lot of "class clown" in him. Each team need one IMO.
