    Quality win against a quality team. Playoff-esque scrappiness. Now can we get this every night, boys?

    Anyway not seeing Amen’s progression as a Pg, knows absolutely nothing about basketball. Last game 9 assists 1 Turnover. Tonight 7 assists 1 turnover. Reed had another great quarter of basketball, sucked in the first half again. 1 assist, 2 turnovers. Amen is our PG and Reed should be our starting SG so that he can be more consistent. Not to mention Amen’s DPOY worthy defense (oh wait, I just did).

    And this is where I see the potential with Reed as an all-around scorer. I'm a firm believer that guys don't really develop a handle once they're in the league, so I don't expect Reed to ever be the type of guard that sizes up his defender and blows past them from a standstill. What I do expect is that he can become such a threat to shoot (from anywhere, not just from three) that his success getting to the rim will come from throwing in these types of hesitation / change-of-pace moves when he's already got north/south speed. That puts even the best defenders at a disadvantage.
