    It has absolutely been a joy to watch and to be honest even if they were losing more this year, they would still be a 100 times more enjoyable to watch then last 3 years. You have players passing the ball, hustling, playing defense. Heck even simple things as setting picks right

    Finally punished a team, though let's not kid ourselves and say this was some great game. We allowed them tons of shots in the first half, they just weren't making them, tons of second chance opportunities and rebounds. The issues we've been having showed up again with allowing too many rebounds and the other side just watching while roaming the perimeter as Ime called it. I'm glad Sengun was on point and some threes started to fall. The young guys did what they had to do.

    At this point, I wouldn't mind giving Cam some burn if Green keeps playing like this. It's funny how Green's best shooting game is coming when he could take the liberty to just do his thing. Granted, he had some nice attacks to the basket, but against a depleted team, hitting a couple of threes is whatever. Hope it gets his confidence up though, but him and Amen need to get daily ball handling exercises in because it's bad. And Tate should just be himself, get that fast break going and finish. Stop trying to be a PG.

    Jalen didn’t do too well offensively vs these 3rd stringers though.

    I am also thinking Cam should get his but should not be thrown into discussions with Jalen Green all the time.

    His performance should be a separate entity until he is clearly better than Jalen Green, Aaron Holiday and Dillon Brooks.

    Vocabulary is a beautiful thing. Taller is associated with height. I didnt say “longer” you silly rabbit - do you sport the black nail polish too?

    Yeah Ime is trying to make it work with what he’s got while also trying to continuously pump up JG - he’s dropping winnable games ultiizng this approach though
