Doing well. Spoke briefly to him at the Indy race at PIR. He was there with David Lucas.

Way too early, but Dame/Ant looks a LOT like Dame/CJ 2.0. Jacking up a ton of shots on nights when they can't hit the broadside of a barn.
7-25 while the rest of the starters were 11-20. Saw this WAY too many times for years. Sooooo don't want a repeat of that nonsense.

ant's defense in the post was... impressive?

 

[THE HCP]

With Moon and Coffey (Black) on the floor, I feel like I'm watching the Flint Tropics.

Max my dawg!!!!

 

[blazerfan11]

There are too many options to do a reboot of CJ and dame with Dame and Simons.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Holy fuck Sharpe

That pretty much sums it up for me. His stats won't look good tonight, but damn he can jump. Can wait to see him in another year or two.

 

[blazerfan11]

Next game just sit Williams and let Sharpe handle the ball like BRoy

Please!

 

[B-Roy]

Honestly wouldn’t mind if Jabari Walker took the backup 5 minutes.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

There's Walker, HCP!!

 

[DDolla]

Jabari

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I present you YOUR SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS

 

[blazerfan11]

Walker is looking good too.
Now if we can just get the ball to the good players.

 

[illmatic99]

I present you YOUR SUMMER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS

our MVP is missing homie

 

[Tince]

Walker has got a Z-Bo like vertical.

 

[THE HCP]

I hope you’re right. I remember feeling the same way about Elliot Williams.

 

[B-Roy]

They gotta find minutes for Walker. Dude is ready to contribute.

 

[TBpup]

Did you expect different?

No....but heard/read so often about how it would be different.

Still early, but the way they played before looks like how they will play now. They both need the ball in their hands to be effective. Since that can't happen, seems like history repeating itself as for 6 years, we were told over and over by some that Dame/CJ wasn't an issue.

 

[AldoTrapani]

This Coffey guy is nice. He destroyed us this quarter

 

[KSF-ERIC]

I hope you’re right. I remember feeling the same way about Elliot Williams.

I remember feeling the same way about Michael Jordan.

 

[Tince]

I hope you’re right. I remember feeling the same way about Elliot Williams.

Elliot Williams could jump out of the gym!

outside of the incessant switching, this was the best defense from this team we've seen in a while.

Call of the game by the Clips announcer after Coffey his the three, "Coffey is for closers!" #glengary

 

[B-Roy]

Sharpe is must watch TV even when he grabs a rebound.

 

[Haakzilla]

Ouch.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Well the takeaway is Dame is back even though his numbers don't show it. And Walker should start.

 

[DDolla]

Diabate better than Eubanks

 

[James lamphear]

The young guys got there feet Walker this kid can really play. Sharpe didn't really well but made a couple blocks and I going be interested in how these two guys progress.

 

[Natebishop3]

I like the confidence to take that shot.

Williams was freezing Sharpe out.

 

[inconceivable]

I've seen flashes of Shaedon (and Jabari)

 

[riverman]

Get the next one! Walker continues to impress the hell out of me. Ant disappointed me tonight big time. Dame looks rusty as hell too.

 

[DDolla]

Brandon Williams not even looking for Sharpe… smh

 

[Chris Craig]

Well that sucks.
