    Yeah, his athleticism doesn't exactly leap out at you. I think best case scenario for him is "scrawnier but bouncier Kevin Love"

    East lost Tatum, Haliburton, and Lillard. There’s the difference. Also Zion is healthy.

    Pretty cool that we beat every team. I wonder how many other teams did that.

    Yeah that release point is so high and seemingly effortless. His offensive game looks a lot like KD's. Really smooth athleticism.

    Still crazy to me that he fell to the 5th pick, I like Dylan Harper but I had Bailey second in the draft with only Flagg ahead of him.

    Yeah, he didn't start because he was traded. Had he stayed in Portland, he'd demand a starting job. I expect him to consistently carve up bench players.

    I hadn't heard the news that Nico moved over to Milwaukee.

    Yeah, Ace looks good. I wonder who he will end up playing for.

    Funny that the top4 players were all on shit teams last season.

    Kind of like one player shooting a whole bunch of jump shots doesn't help a team win.

    The Blevins move to make a disgruntled star a little more content.

    Now that he has easier opposition than Oregon Duck defenders, he seems to be doing better.......

    Celtics broadcast last night did a piece on Ant and said he is in the starting line up 100% like we thought he would be.
