    Honestly Amen and Brooks makes more sense as our forward combo than inserting Tate or Jeff. Jeff is somewhat of a outside threat but what Amen brings is just significantly more and Tate isn't even considered an outside threat so there is no reason to start Tate over Amen.

    I'm betting Amen and Brooks will be our forwards in the starting unit. Amen already has experience playing some small ball five last season for a long stretch.

    Maybe he caught himself falling or something. Unfortunate but it happens.

    I think we're about to see how important he is to this team. Basic box score stats don't always tell the whole story.

    Dang.
    At practice too?
    Dang, just when he was starting to find a groove.

    Oh well - we get to see more Jae'SEAN I suppose, nice audition for him so we can flip him for a 2nd rounder (...)

    Maybe they could re-attach Tari's leg now?


    Personally I would start Amen at the 4 - sux for spacing with only 1 shooter in the starting 5 now, but it is what it is.

    Well, if it seemed like a good idea to trade for Cam Johnson before...

    I'm not worried about him. Unc, Tate, and Jock can carry us.
