    Been great. No doubt. Some of athletic limitations lead to a lot some turnovers when we play guys with quicker, stronger, athletic wings. The last two games (I think)) Portland and Atlanta have had two of their better defenders on him, which is a huge compliment and helps the team.

    He's playing like a guy we can't trade and we're going to have to pay up soon, and that's fine. I want him here for the forseeable future and unless we're getting a top 7-10 player back in a deal, he stays.

    Him and Lebron are so fun to watch when they both have it going. They cooked that Miami zone even without AD.

    I know it's happening but would love to see Lavine as the 3rd in there. They need the finisher and Lavine fits that so perfectly - he would feast off all those opens shots and lobs created by these guys

    Superb game, career high. He was gassed at the very end and I don’t blame him for those. All short.

    We could see he was gassed but were hoping the 2nd or 3rd short mid range attempt after missing the first with his dead legs would go down for the dagger and HIM’s first 40 game. :cool: :cool: :cool:
