    Reading this, you’d think we had prime MJ last year at SG. :D

    Now I’m pumped for the season to start!

    Haha didn't mean to exaggerate anything.

    But here's something to consider:

    I never thought Green would be a near-average defender before the age of 25. I didn't think he'd be a guy who can take 17-18 shots in a high usage role and turn it over just 2.3 times per game in his first few seasons (thought he'd be turnover prone).

    If he hits the scoring standards he's supposed to hit by year 4, we will have a better player on our hands than we anticipated.

    JG and Alperen team-high +14 tonight... Really pleased with both of them. Both showing some resilience when things aren't perfect. Keep it going! 50 wins loading!

    I'm surprised Ime didn't bench Jalen when he was 2-12 and 0-6 from 3 with 5 minutes to go in the game, but I'm glad he didn't! He trusted Jalen to close the game, and he was right. It's nice to see it work out.

    Credit to RR Martin that he actually had those books filmed and made into Shows.
