    McVeigh jumper is money. I’d start him over Brickari.

    For the first game:

    A: Sengun, Jalen and Amen
    -played like superstars

    B: Jabari, Whitmore, FVV, Adams, Tate
    - did their job, Whitmore S on offense but D on defense and activity

    C: Reed Sheppard
    -Showed high bball IQ but 0/4 from 3. Please drop the ned flanders moustache

    D: Everyone else*

    F-: Aaron Holiday

    Horrible on both ends. Had the worst plus minus by far, couldnt hit a bucket and couldnt guard a traffic cone wtf.

    Reed was 2 three point makes away from a nice boxscore. He had some open good looks as well

    I was with you until the blasphemous mustache comment. If anything he needs to grow it longer. I want to see that thing at his shoulders by mid season.

    • Sengun will be an all star this year
    • Jalen breakout year this year
    • Amen still looks great on defense and finishing in the paint
    • Cam seems less bone headed so far
    • Reed still can't shoot, but hopefully that changes because he's supposed to be a generational shooter that we desperately need

    The moustache is interfering with his muscle memory thats why he is missing shots.

    They were losing the lead and playing sloppy.

    Wait, you mean the people calling Jalen a guaranteed bust, traded by last season's deadline and the worst player in his draft class and also Reed a "basketball savant" who was an amalgam of Nash/Curry/CP3 were wrong? I'm absolutely stunned by this revelation... :rolleyes::p:cool:
