Deleterious

Yep, the blood clot was huge. He ended last year hurt and still wasn't cleared for 5v5 until after this season started. His entire summer was lost. He also didn't get any training camp with his new coach. His first time running JB's system was 20 games into the season. Amen is in his second year with his coach. I also just think Amen is better. What separates them is Amen's handle. He has legit PG skills and can run an offense. Much easier for him to get to the rim than it is for Ausar. Shooting needs to improve for both obviously. But Ausar developing some ball handling skills will be his swing skill, not shooting.

That was pretty odd. I don't like switching there. Young forces the switch at about the 15 second mark. Why not fight over the screen? Young doesn't want to shoot with 15 seconds on the clock, so you have plenty of time to fight over it. Completely agree on Holland and Stew. If I'm switching those two plus Reed are going to be out there with Ausar.

Yep

Bad loss.

Wow. Falling down rainbow from young to take the lead. Hawks up 2 with 1.6 seconds left.

That was one of those lazy Cade turnovers. No reason for that at all.

First team to play defense wins.

Ausar has been huge on both ends of the court.

Thompson lol

Both brothers having good games tonight.

If they win this remember that Ausar block.

It would take me a week and a half to get up after falling on the floor like Holland.

Geez Cade, dumb foul on the three attempt.

I doubt they care about the contract. Tradeable size, only 1 1/2 years left. Plus the Bulls seem to be lining up their cap space for the summer of 2026. They are set to have about $125 million in space if they want it. I would do Ball for THJ in a heartbeat though.

Before tonights game he had made 203 field goals. 137 are dunks.

Duren is the best lob catcher in the league. But I don't know if that guy can score a field goal that isn't a dunk.

That place looks empty. They are playing way too good for it to be that empty.

Ok when you haven't scored a field goal in 8 minutes it might be time to get Cade back in.

Wow. Those were impressive stats for Cade on the second night of a b2b.

I hope Nance already has kids.

Cade finishes the first quarter with 7 assists.

You know things are going well when Stew is taking people off the bounce.

Greg and George are talking about it. In my opinion this teams biggest improvement from last year is moving the ball. Everyone on this roster will make that extra pass.

Unless the trade machines are wrong, it looks like it will have to be Fontecchio going if we want Ball. I'm not OK with that. I know he has not been what I expected this season, but I think he has some value as a shooter off the bench. Enough I don't want to send him out for injury prone Ball.
