    Twice this game the Pels announcers saying Rupert just into the game when he'd been in the game for at least 4 minutes. Last game we played them they're play-by-play guy thought Rayan was Camara for 5 minutes.

    I hate that Banton is actually good.

    Banton puts the ball in the hole. Not a bad skill to have in this game. He should get more minutes. See what he can really do.

    Is it crazy that I feel more comfortable with the ball in Banton's hands than Scoot or Ant?

    Banton is the real deal. He needs real minutes.

    Simons needs to be traded. Banton is better, younger and cheaper.

    No. Banton is the big guard we’ve been looking for for years now.

    Grant really plays like a guard , like a guard sized like Banton.

    No need for Grant at this time.

    DB is very hard to guard driving to the hoop with that back board angle.
