    I was at the game, Cling won this one at the end for us. He def had at least 3 more paint shots he missed but probably would have made in time when he’s more consistent in his shooting. Two he went in totally out of control and got blocked when he could settle for little floaters and whatnot.

    Guys, we have a gem.

    Other teams could still 'steal' him by offering him a two way contract

    His passing could be very Jokic light.

    His offense has a long way to go but he is probably a better defender than Jokic right now.

    if Yongxi hit his halfcourt shot, then Bryce would have a better +/-

    defensively but no where close offensively. Fans are truly under appreciating how good Ayton. He’s still an above average center. I like the how their skill sets compliment each other

    And if he had knees that didn't break everytime something brushes up against them that would mean something.

    So, we've had Marc Gasol and Jokic. Anyone going for Prime Sabonis while we're getting all overexcited?

    Clingan looks like he'll be a solid player fairly soon. He just needs minutes.

    I really liked what I saw out of Clingan yesterday. He looks like a player that just helps the team in so many ways. It looks like he was having fun too.

    Scoot has that “it” factor.
