Really excited to see how Yang looks after playing 24 minutes this last game.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Are we going to play all our starters tonight? I think this is our only B2B.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Yang was super impressive yesterday. Greatly exceeded my expectations.

I had thought he might need to sit out of the rotation to start the regular season. Now I'm wondering if there's a chance he could be a game1 backup.

We could slide Timelord down to backup PF.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I feel like B2b shouldn’t matter in summer league unless someone is hurt

 

[Mediocre Man]

Warriors tonight. Let’s fuckin go!!!!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Sit Yang tonight.

 

[TYDame]

Just for fun, small bet for Yang winning ROY

 

[BigGameDamian]

 

[Chris Craig]

Sit Yang tonight.

Nah, we got a championship to win

 

[Chris Craig]

Uhh

 

[BBert]

Sit Yang tonight.

Everybody Yang Chung tonight!

 

[BBert]

"There. I said it." LOLOL

What a tool.

 

[BBert]

Are we going to play all our starters tonight? I think this is our only B2B.

Definitely should. They have two days off after tonight.

 

[tlongII]

Simmons is nowhere near as big as Yang.

 

[KingSpeed]

Just for fun, small bet for Yang winning ROY

I think it’s possible.

 

[Chris Craig]

I think it’s possible.

Nah, it's already Flaggs

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

Nah, it's already Flaggs

Not after comparing their first game debut.

 

[Chris Craig]

Not after comparing their first game debut.

Flagg just put up 31

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

Flagg just put up 31

Oh crap. got it. I'm behind apparently. Lol.

 

[blazerkor]

Flagg just put up 31

And now is when Yang makes the exact to scale jump as Flagg did from his first game to his second.

Yang goes for 50 points, 15 rebounds and 20 assists with only 2 turnovers, 10 blocked shots and 4 steals.

Yang is Joker 2.0, a walking quadruple double.

Just having fun, no need to rein in my expectations. There is a chance that Yang looks even better this game than he did last game and there's a chance that he'll have even more teachable moments, we'll have to see.

 

[inconceivable]

Is Coward playing tonight?

 

[cheesehoff]

Just for fun, small bet for Yang winning ROY

What's the line?

 

[blazerkor]

Is Coward playing tonight?

Nah, too scared.

 

[inconceivable]

Nah, too scared.

just looked it up, looks like he's got some shoulder injury, too bad

 

[cheesehoff]

Hansen is the type of player that will have a big affect games without putting up gaudy numbers. Then he'll have games with big numbers. Either way, teams will (very soon) have to game plan for him and there's not many backup centers in the league that opponents will have do that for.

If Clingan hasn't developed a lot on offense, I don't know how long he'll be starting in front of a guy like Yang with all of his offensive skills and still a dude with the feel and size on defense to make the paint a no fly zone.

 

[BBert]

Nah, too scared.

I see what you did there.

 

[Chris Craig]

Nah, too scared.

That Coward

There is a chance. He's is going to be good. Still young so imagine the potential.
