    I hope you’re right. I remember feeling the same way about Elliot Williams.

    No....but heard/read so often about how it would be different.

    Still early, but the way they played before looks like how they will play now. They both need the ball in their hands to be effective. Since that can't happen, seems like history repeating itself as for 6 years, we were told over and over by some that Dame/CJ wasn't an issue.

    outside of the incessant switching, this was the best defense from this team we've seen in a while.

    Well the takeaway is Dame is back even though his numbers don't show it. And Walker should start.

    I like the confidence to take that shot.

    Williams was freezing Sharpe out.

    Get the next one! Walker continues to impress the hell out of me. Ant disappointed me tonight big time. Dame looks rusty as hell too.
