Dunn looked way better running the point IMO.

I know someone who is, I think we all know who I'm talking about. He's still pouting about it.

27 points, 5 boards, 2 assists (could have had a lot more if anyone could hit a corner 3), 1 block, 3 steals, 2 turnovers and clearly the most impactful guy in the game. Great debut.

A few impressions:
- Hard not to be impressed by Dunn. I'd like to see if he can go to his left, I don't think I remember him doing it tonight. Love his length for a point guard. Really like the way he fights over picks. Hopefully that rubs off on Wig and Zach. He appears to be a legit two-way player. Are you guys sure Ricky is safe this summer?
- Tyus just understands the game of basketball. Really like his game and smarts. He can play for my team anytime.
- Payne is Payne.
- Like I believe Khans said, we have two players and not much else on the team.
- Not a bad effort, but our starting guards made the game closer than it should have been.

That's because he's a point guard.

Yeah, Murray is going to need a LOT of skill to overcome his less-than-stellar physical and athletic profile. But folks thought that about Steph Curry too.

They had him at SG a lot tonight, Did you not watch the game?

He absolutely "did shit" and that's what I like about him. He makes stuff happen out there; you always know he's on the court.

The only other NBA player on our team is Tyus who is a PG so Dunn had to play the 2 and he did fine, but of course he's going to look better at the PG because he's a PG. Nobody has ever said he would be a better SG, just that you can play him there if needed to get him minutes. I thought he showed exactly what we need. A combo guard who does shit on both sides of the ball. He'll make a nice three man rotation with Ricky and Zach.
