Not bashing, but Ian needs a lot of work at both ends. His court awareness seems suspect too. Hopefully he takes instruction well and relaxes.

Wow, thanks for the notice. I’ll make sure I keep it to one or two next time so you can handle the math.

You kids behave or I'm going to turn this car around and no-one will see a game!!!

The good news is we're winning the possession battle by 10 at half. An absurdly high number for one half of basketball. The bad news is we've only used that edge to build a 1 point lead

Up 1 and they’re out shooting us by 10%

Outrebounded 21-15 which I guess isn't terrible against a team this size. Our shooting is bound to improve in the second half. Numbers may not show it, but Prey was very good in the first half - looks to be in better shape this year.

 

[Joedib]

If Ayo is the 3 or Hopkins is the 3. Is there a difference there offensively?

Clearly.

Sorry dad

Game was played at the speed of an All Star game except with fouls being called. We have a lot of talent and hopefully it meshes.

 

[Silly Donovan]

Was happy with Darling, had some good early moments, played good D, made a nice drive….. and….. hit a three.

 

[Joedib]

I can’t believe this is a serious conversation.

 

[paultzman]

Mich. assist to TO ratio abominable

 

[gregbodkin]

Clearly.

Agreed.

Our front court could be formidable.

They do turn the ball over without cause a lot.

 

[MJDinkins]

Nice first half. Attendance doesn't look great but haven't heard official numbers. Definitely worth $9 to watch this one!

I believe it's around 13K at tonight's exhibition.

 

[Silly Donovan]

Cadeau killing us.

 

[paultzman]

Sellers defending quick PGs is a work in progress

 

[paultzman]

Mitchell best guy on team moving w/o ball

 

[Amaseinyourface]

Clearly.

It was a context question. No one would say Ayo is a better offensive player.

 

[MJDinkins]

Mitchell best guy on team moving w/o ball

Best defender as well.

 

[Amaseinyourface]

Lefty needed confidence and his shots falling both these games has let him breath. Hes mot overmatched athletically as many think.
