[The_Jamal]

Oh God, Luke’s gonna end up playing Frank 20 minutes a night, isn’t he?

Not going to lie, I wouldn't mind it. Great compliment to Holmes as a spacing 5.

 

[SLAB]

Oh God, Luke’s gonna end up playing Frank 20 minutes a night, isn’t he?

Appropriate nickname at least.

 

[KainLear]

.... why did CoJo get a multi year many million dollar contract?

Although, just from the fact that he's been bonding with Ty and helping the rookie out might end up being a priceless gift for us... <shrug>

 

[DesertFox]

If Holmes can't replicate his performance pre-injury, I can see a 3 headed monster at center with Frank and Hassan. He hasn't had that same touch around the basket since he was hurt, and that's the difference between a starter and a energy backup.

 

[Groovygreg]

Fox having a very subpar game.

I'd prefer that keep happening with CoJo firmly on the bench.

 

[SLAB]

My lord that’s an ugly shot. But if it works!

 

[Tetsujin]

Tyrese’s stroke is K-Mart levels of funky.

 

[KainLear]

I'd prefer that keep happening with CoJo firmly on the bench.

Hopefully Ty can just inherit CoJo's defensive chops sooner than later for your scenario to happen.

 

[SLAB]

Justin “Vlade Special” James getting his first run.

 

[KainLear]

Tyrese’s stroke is K-Mart levels of funky.

As long as it's as effective as K-Mart's stroke, I'm not complaining.

 

[Tetsujin]

Your reminder that Frank obliterated WCS in March Madness

 

[Groovygreg]

CJ looks like Morris Day.

 

[Livinthedream]

Kaminsky is really going to play his way onto this team

 

[SacTownKid]

the only proven spacers on this team are Bjelica, Buddy, and Barnes and they are already starting with Fox.

Maybe, but it's mostly play sets, formation, and rotation. It's like simply saying pace and 3's are the answer which can be prolbematic and not indicative of the teams real issues. No, spacing is the answer. The types of 3's you get and who you get them for are the answer. Running Buddy off multiple screens while Holmes awaits to dribble hand off is not using Fox as anything other than a decoy which we've seen far too much off the last season +.

 

[SacTownKid]

Oh God, Luke’s gonna end up playing Frank 20 minutes a night, isn’t he?

He's the only big that can run "his" offense other than maybe Bjelica now that Harry is gone.

 

[Tetsujin]

This Tyrese/JJ guard group getting things done on defense.

 

[Livinthedream]

Haliburton looking like a young Doug Christie playing the passing lanes.

 

[The_Jamal]

Let's gooo Frank

 

[KainLear]

CJ looks like Morris Day.

 

[Tetsujin]

Haliburton looking like a young Doug Christie playing the passing lanes.

Considering I thought that Doug would be one of those guys who would absolutely slay in the modern pace era, I am not against this.

 

[The_Jamal]

This Tyrese/JJ guard group getting things done on defense.

James looks like he's put on weight after looking like a beanpole last year.

 

[dude12]

JJ draws the charge from CJ.....like the first guy in 5 years to get a stop on an opposing guard.

 

[The_Jamal]

Hali at least 4 impactful defensive plays. Super, super impressive.

 

[SactownShaq]

I'm just waiting for them to unleash Kyle Guy, don't they want to win the game smh.

 

[Kingz19]

Haliburton is family to Eddie Jones? Did not know that

 

[kb02]

GRIII leads a 1 on 3 break and manages to get stuffed at the rim. SMH.

 

[The_Jamal]

Haliburton is family to Eddie Jones? Did not know that

interesting! Kind a similar play-style to Eddie Jones too.

 

[SLAB]

.... Since when has Nurkic been a redhead?

 

[Tetsujin]

Haliburton is family to Eddie Jones? Did not know that

Yup. They’re apparently cousins. If Haliburton ends up the best basketball player in that family, not gonna be mad.
