    Really liked what I saw from JC. A dog on offense and defense. Talent is there let’s see if he can develop it.

    Josh Christopher is Patrick Beverly on defense and a less talented Westbrook on offense

    Fantastic find by Rafael. Immense talent and effort and attitude. Love the vibes he was bringing.

    The other stuff, the tunnel vision, is 19-year-old kid stuff. Silas can help him there.

    yeah I might have been wrong about him! has legit 2 way skill. only 19. I thought he was drafted because he was friends with green, but he might've been the best player remaining at 24. great job stone!

    Plays hard and good D, needs a year or more in the G-league to find out how to shoot a basketball.

    His game resembles EGo more than Bev IMO.

    EG. I mean he has some great qualities and intensity but he seems way too selfish and ball dependent.... like he plays like he is the superstar which is ok but I don't think he ever will be superstar. A big black hole. But hey - hes 19 maybe he develops into Lillard

    I can see that. Just a louder, more outspoken version. JC is definitely not lacking confidence

    I like Chris. Has all the tools to be a good player. He just needs a season of heavy minutes and coaching in the g league and he’ll be ready.

    Definitely a keeper.

    He did well defensively, but on offense he's absolutely terrible......but he's got the kind of irrational confidence in his offense that leads to him doing a lot of terrible.

    Hopefully he can iron things out in RGV and not end up too much of a negative on that side of the ball.
