    Mills is 'cover your eyes bad' defensively.

    You're telling me you didn't think a lot of our wins last season were ugly?

    Not by lack of talent, but lack of bodies. Haha.

    A win is a win. I'm just sayin'.

    I agree. Cunningham needs to start showcasing Babbitt more.

    I don't consider a win "ugly", just because a lot of players are banged up.

    Armon can make the simple pass although I'm not sure he's really a point guard. He does have a couple of nice things about his game: he does look to pass, plays pretty good D and has NBA athleticism. That jumper of his is tough to watch though.

    Not what I meant. We had to play a certain style of basketball considering our team was fighting injuries all season. Which caused a lot of match-up problems, not to mention a giant hole in the middle.

    Armon is a keeper if you ask me. Jumper looks fine to me.

    He also looks every bit of 6-3 and has a nice wingspan

    Impressive D by Armon. He's turning into a pretty nice player.

    I think I like Johnson more. Mills is the better shooter, but I just like Johnson as a prospect more. Plus he tries on defense.

    Armon will probably turn into a nice backup somewhere.

    Johnson does remind me of Greg Anthony a lot.

    I'm guessing he's earning a fan in the stands

    Armon Johnson is nice. Pretty calm and in control.

    Armon's got that runner down. I like it.

    I pretty much demand that Johnson make the roster over Mills.
