    Heck Yeah. Dalton actually caught an inadvertent elbow from KD during the game too. Kind of messed him up a little. That must be an interesting feeling. Growing up idolizing a player, and then you end up guarding him and he elbows you lol.

    #freeknecht. Needs more minutes not just because he's good he is but also you might as well get the rookie mistakes out oft he way now.

    Get him reps and some time to see how teams will start countering you so you can figure it out when the games matter more

    I was just told in no uncertain terms that +/- is a worthless stat. In fact that it was stupid. How dare someone quote a stat like that as if it has any meaning!

    Unless it fits your narrative of course, then carry on.

    He’s already ahead of what I expected at this point. He makes rookie mistakes of course, but he’s not afraid, he’s ready to contribute right now

    I like that they are keeping him on sustainable rookie minutes so he will be less likely to hit the rookie wall. He's capable of more, but they are taking the long view.

    Tomorrow, if he scores 11 points then he will tie the total number of points last year's rook put up in the entire season.

    JJ really loves his rook




    Didn't think we'd be drafting the best offensive weapon on our bench. Kid impresses me every time out there.

    Would probably gutsily take a page out of Hachimura's book. Take the shot instead of swinging it to the hot hand. LOL!

    ...James probably wouldn't mind. Tell him "You the hot hand, shoot the ball MF!"
