TSJ could end up being a starter in this league. He is a complete player. Has the ability to be a great defender. We knew he was able to get his own shot. His three looks good even when it doesn’t go in in summer league. And now the assists are raining in. Love what we are seeing from him.

Yeah, it feels almost silly to call him an 8th man at this point, but that's what he is until he climbs the ladder further. But you can absolutely see Finch opting for small ball lineups just so that he can get TJ in there more, with Jaden playing the 4 or even 5 sometimes.

Connelly! That's a pretty big get for the broadcast crew.

Agreed. Yeah, I actually like Jaden at the 4. Maybe when we trade Randle in the future it will open more of that up with TSJ to slide in at the 3. Likely in a year or two

Connelly in responding to Isaiah Thomas's question on the Rudy trade: "We thought it was important for Ant to experience winning and see good habits early on." Two Western Conference Finals appearances later I think we can say Mission Accomplished!

Ron Holland looks really good. Every shot looks good coming off his hand.

Ok, if they are going to call it like this, then just clear out a side and let Shannon drive to the hoop. He should get a whistle every time.

Beringer's ability to move his feet with such agility and athleticism at his length is really impressive. He should definitely be able to guard in space.

We all said we needed another defensive big on the roster. Now we didn't think he'd only be 18 years old, but I think we can check that off the to-do list. He absolutely is going to be a factor for years to come, it's just a matter of how quick the learning curve is.

Point guard....not ready to check that box yet.
