    I don't even think it's necessarily worrying about it. I think deep down, in places we don't talk about, some of us thought that we'd be good.

    Watching Moses Brown vs Bol Bol is like watching poverty Chet vs Wemby.

    just put him in as many games as possible so he figures out defensive coverages and set him free in a year or two. if he stays healthy, he's an all star.

    just need him to take the reins on the leadership and we're gonna be golden.

    I know it's preseason so it will be interesting to see if things change when the games count, but I can't imagine Ayton is going to be happy with 6 shots in a game.

    Kinda sucks we're gonna need to go through another year of Chauncey just to prove that he's not the guy.

    I know he has a huge caboose, but someone should let Moses know that his shorts don't have to be up at his nipple line.
