    Well deserved for Tou. We'll see what the off season moves are but if the guys we retain can build from the kind of defense they were playing at the end of the season we should at least be a lot of fun to watch on that end of the court and in transition.

    Just thinking about how much fun it is to watch Tou full court press, get all up in the business of the best guy on the opposing team without doing dirty shit like PatBev or Draymond. I'll never be sure that Tou was seen by our front office as being as big of a get as he was but I'm really glad we have him.

    Online polls I'm seeing have Jokic leading with fans by about 8 to 1. Some with over 9000 responses...

    Impressive - I didn't realize Jokic was considered to be such an elite defender.

    Except I remember plenty of folks that were super high on Amen and Dyson those drafts.

    Didn’t win enough games. Three more wins and we would’ve gotten the #1 pick.

    I’m really happy for Tou. He’s a great success story and I’m glad he’s our dude. I wonder how much management saw this in him or if he was more of a throw in.
