Dyson’s defense and passing is as advertised, fricking awesome. Needs to work on his scoring package, his shot looks good but isn’t going in. He keeps using the floater but he’s 6’8 he need to go up strong.

Graham looks awesome, hope he can keep it up.

Who is this Jaxson? Maybe the most active defensively I’ve ever seen him. Guarding on the perimeter and defending the rim. He’s gonna frick around and make me want to extend him

MVP Billy doing MVP things. He’s a solid backup center and we’re paying him 2.3m the next 2 years. What a steal of a contract by griff.

I think I need to see a doctor cuz this erection isn’t going down anytime soon

Hayes looks amazing. Doesn’t do silly fouls and actually grabbing rebounds.

1st half positives:

Zion looks like Adonis
Herb draining 3s and locking fools up
Dyson looking like a vet on defense and hitting no look passes
Grand Theft Alvarado
Billy looking like Pau Gasol
Jax playing with awareness
Graham actually hitting shots

Pels in 4

All 12 of our players are in the positive for +/-

All 10 of theirs are in the negative.

I’ve been saying it, put him in a role where he isn’t running your offense full time and allowed to take mostly all catch and shoot threes and you will get a pretty damn good shooter off the bench.

The one time he faltered was when he tried that stupid pull up three on the break and basically missed the basket. That needs to be out of his arsenal unless he is on straight fire

One of the biggest things is nothing looks forced. Even with the bench playing, the offense is still flowing and everyone looks like they know what they are supposed to be doing. I can’t help but think it’s the continuity, this is the first post AD year we’ve had continuity

No he isn’t.

Billy is a good player to have to start if Jonas is out, or if Jonas is in foul trouble.
He’s not playing backup minutes over Jax or Nance, or Trey.

I think a key with JAX is that he know his role, this is his first season having the same head coach as the previous season plus his first 2 head coaches was fricking Gentry and Stan that is a recipe for disaster for a dude who was already a project to begin with

I like Billy in spots but his defense is going to be too limited to play a big role in the rotation.

It was a great 500+ day run as the teams best player but it ended at tip-off tonight.

I heard one of the announcers say something like “it looks like this team got deep overnight”

The only addition to the roster is Dyson Daniels.

If jax gets traded yes he most certainly will. Nance, Billy, and Trey can all play in the same rotation to be fair.

I have to complement Willie for installing his system, getting the entire team to play unselfishly within the system, and promoting joy in playing the game.

What a tremendous difference from the SVG season!!!
