I’m torn. Our 3 rooks deserve it. All came through in the clutch.

I gave it to Sarr as this was the type of shooting performance we should ideally see more regularly, plus 4 blocks!

Sarr had some real nice plays and you can see the potential there. Duren plays a lot like Gafford which is pretty good. Made me miss Gaff and having a real big man. Holmes is not bad in spots but not at that level. But you can see the vision with Sarr.
Can't say I do. Who else gonna shoot?

I think Sarr for the late block which resulted in a TO.
Plus he's been a scapegoat for a lot of losses.
That said, Sarr made a bunch of bad plays too.
KyGeo gets an honorable mention for the 2 late 3s.

I only watched the second half so would have voted for George had that been an option
In Rizzo we trust

The fact that Justin Champagnie doesn't get POtG from every single person here amazes me.

Champagnie has been a revelation in a number of games. Maybe when you acquire something
so easily, it becomes difficult to value accordingly.
