    Because Lonzo Ball had a decent set shot in College and in his rookie year he shot 50 points better from 3 than MCW's career average, 70 points better than his average last year. And people say Lonzo didn't shoot well.

    MCW has played two preseason games here.

    Knee-jerk but Isaiah Hartenstein. Haven't seen a player fight for his life in the game before. It's probably just early and he knows his spot on the team is not a guarantee but the hustle he puts out on the court had me in awe. Haven't had a hustling big like him in a long time.

    Ditto, MCW is working out perfectly. Great chemistry with Harden already.

    I second (all) that emotion. I'm liking the look of this team so far. Only issue with Carter-Williams is that they are clearly struggling with a nickname for him on the broadcast.

    I propose "The Hyphen"....

    Don't react right away, just let it wash over you.:cool:

    Man I was waiting for malakas' take on MCW's rise up the Clutchfans popularity rankings.

    We know you aren't a fan of MCW, but what do you think of how he's playing now? You don't think MCW play is sustainable?

    Only when the sun rises from the West
    Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me. This guy has been causing me heartburn for years on end, no thanx.
    The one and only consolation in having him and Knight in the Rockets now is the evil pleasure of sharing these wonderful feelings with you all.
    : ))) Soon...

    I can't disagree with that unintended and inevitable consequence

    Playing with Harden and CP3 and MDA can completely change a player. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if MCW looked decent. He’s a solid defender already. If he played within himself who knows.
