    Great! Either him or Bruno need to start at tip off and we can finally have EG back on the bench! We need EG to get back into 6th man of the year award status. Move Tucker back to the 4 to start games.

    Haha. So true. Not just with shooting. Every time we get a name mid season he starts off so hot with us and then cooks down. Faried completed our team the first two weeks. Lou’s first game what he drop? 27?

    Tucker would be destroyed by Draymond green at the four.

    Tucker barely gets four or five rebounds every night as it is.

    lol. A legend is born. Hopefully ends up being more Austin Rivers than Brendan Wright.

    Very impressed with Green. Looks like he's got plenty in the tank. I didn't expect him to play so well. He's gonna take Thabo's place in the rotation it looks like and I assume DMC will get most of the minutes at the backup 4.

    Tucker has never been destroyed by Green at any position.

    Clint has...

    Gerald Green was basically the Cali Cartel.
    Jeff Green belonged to Medellin.

    Morey needs to improve his drug analytics.

    Might be due to Rox fatigue cuz of the system we play.

    The diff now though is the Rox have a lot of interchangeable pieces so even if Green winds down guess what there is DmC, Thabo, House and Mclemore waiting to take his spot.

    I've seen enough. Sign Jeff Green to a lifetime contract. Lol

    Seriously, Green and Covington were draining 3s like free throws. If these guys are able to hit these shots that Harden and Russ are creating, coupled with that suffocating defense that small ball allows, it's really good night NBA.

    Green looked a whole lot like D’Antoni Tim Thomas.

    As a backup C he is PERFECT. Hit some really tough box outs allowing others to rebound. Big and strong dude.

    Also, he has a chill swag and confidence about his game. He has piqued my interest.

    I cannot wait to witness the crowfest vs. Utah.

    Going to have to compile a @DonKnock list of shame for the naysayers.

    How do y'all like Jeff now???
