Bro has hit some post moves that look similar to Sengun. I think he should get more touches while everyone is out. If he can continue to score down low, he can snatch up the ROTY easily. This class is awful.

He dominated the 3rd quarter.

We need to look for him more on offense.

He's been a steal so far with the 21st pick.

The most surprising thing is how little he's fouling. Rookie centers are usually foul machines

Future all-star C. He was a perfect pick for us. He's been one of the few bright spots so far this year.

Just imagine if we had a creative head coach who actually ran a pick and rolls for him. Imagine how much better he could be. We have no one besides dejounte that can actually throw lobs to him.

Murray ran a few P&Rs with Missi in that 1 game they played together.

Yeah I almost feel like Dejounte was doing that himself. Last night Missi was doing amazing and nobody was trying to run a pick and roll for him.

We run P&R regularly but we have two score first dominant players who will look for their shots first so they're going to look to score first and foremost.

And half the time these guys can't make a good enough pass in traffic off the roll.

The difference between Murray and the other guys is the fact that Murray is deliberate about creating plays for Missi. He's looking at Missi rolling as the first option whereas CJ,BI, Zion, and at times Jose are looking to score when they go downhill.

I saw the lob Jose threw to Missi last night. Good grief that shite wasn’t close. As good as Jose is in lot of things- hes never been a great passer.

I think most of us were hoping for rim protecting lob threat and nothing more. He has shown way more ability than expected

There are times I think he has more post moves than Zion. Which is nuts if you think about it.
