    Might as well drop this here, too. Turned out to be an important three to answer Kawhi to end the half.

    Brewer has naked pics of every coach in the NBA, that's the only logical reason he gets PT under 3 coaches now. Unless he is killing it in practice or something I also have no idea why he sees so much play.

    What I think about Sam Dekker is that he is a cold blooded rookie who knows how to shoot in clutch situations ; although it is too early to say that .

    He's playing with a ton of confidence. His giant question marks were shooting and defense, and he's done pretty well in both areas.

    I like his game.
    I was very skeptical but during the preseason I saw the potential
    I hope we don't sell high . . then watch him go higher!

    He had 10 points in 18 minutes. Not bad, not bad, and 7 rebounds in 18 minutes. That's surprisingly good. That's a 20/14 pace. #POTENTIAL

    Loved his non-reaction after hitting the buzzer beater. Showed he expected to hit it as he's growing in confidence

    The ESPN analysts were not impressed by the second 3 pointer in the hp video but they were by the first one...lul

    Bullshit/s aside, pretty happy about Sam, i love his game, he just has good instincts overall, nose for the ball, smart player...i really like him.

    Moves his feet real well on defense too. I've been pretty impressed with his smarts.

    I couldn't understand why he was acting all cocky and confident in preseason. Turns out he's cocky because he's got game!

    I like how he attacks the basket. Seems to have a quick first step, and he can finish.

    His shot looks fine too.

    I love that he plays in control and within his abilities. The anti-Brewer.

    Great energy off the bench, and cuts to the basket hard and fast. If he can continue to improve his 3 pt shot then he could be a solid rotation player.
