    They both looked great, let guys compete for minutes and positions. Let those who truly earn it with consistent play get those minutes.

    Whoever is helping us win can start or finish the game.

    I love Eason.

    He's not better than Jabari man. Not at this point.

    Give this guy time, I truly believe he can be a franchise player.

    Both should start. Bring that $80 mil scrub, Brooks, off the bench.

    Don't get me started ilias,

    I had us lowering our sites going into free agency.

    I would have gone
    *Monte Morris trade $9.8m expiring for a second rd pick
    *Jevon Carter for $7m

    Let them fight it out: Amen, Morris, Carter, KPj

    $43m dollar FVv has to get 30+ minutes which leaves 18- minutes for
    Amen at point guard

    Unless you play Amen some at SF....where Dillion (@ $20m), KPj (@ $16m) and Bari/Tari
    need minutes as well. Kinda a log jam there.

    A shame to send Amen to the G-League. I can't see that happening.

    Over time, I hope this is the case. I get why they added Brooks, but both of those guys reaching their potential and having two guys with that length and defensive flexibility locking down the forward spots is the dream. Personally, as long as one of them starts and they both get 25-30+ minutes, I don't care tremendously either way. Eason is probably a better, more consistent all-around player today, but Bari is the better long-term investment and is younger.
