What do you think, David? Did Walker look like at least a top 20 center in the NBA last night? Curious what the defensive rating was when he was on the floor versus off.
I thought Zach tried to punk Walker a little in that Summer League game, and it motivates Walker for this match-up. Good to see him respond like that. He keeps this up, Danny will start asking for 3 1st rd picks for him (not that I want him traded).
Great Effort last night Boyzzz. It was a ton of fun. The beauty of this season is that win or lose.We win.
It seemed like we struggled, just simply dribbling the ball last night. Keyonte we are 100% rooting for you. We love you. Know this Key…once you figure out that your success will come as will our team.
Key, also know this…If you play every possession like the game is on the line and practice that exact same way. Your success is going to happen.
Offensive scheme was at times really weird. It seemed to be more isolation and less pick-and-roll. Why?
Prize Picks. My buddy won $200.00 with a Parley play. Basically paid for his tickets.
Walker was a Beast. Hendricks struggled at first, but got it going in the second half and looked fantastic. Lauri was great from start to finish.
I think Walker finished with 6 Blocks and like 12 Rebounds. If he could average the each night. He will be the DPOY.
Collin sexton okayed only 25 mins and took 8 shots then got subbed out that’s a problem you media people refuse to acknowledge and you LOST
Why are Collins, Clarkson, and Mills in the game?
