D Wright is what we had hoped Babbitt would be.

I like that Dorrell loves to win road games, gets him fired up. If Dorrell is Babbit, TRob is Hickson and Lopez is the new Joel Pryzbilla plus can get a few buckets. Mo is Eric Maynor and Crabbe is Noel Smith...see an upgrade anywhere? I sure do!

Welcome! Yeah our bench got a serious upgrade this offseason. I wonder if the old players see us and say "well shit maybe we do suck?!"

James Jones was a great clutch, ISO, guarded, must-make shooter. Wright's good shooting depends upon the flow of passing and finding himself open.

If Jones weren't constantly injured his common name would be very big.

Not talked about much. But, Wright is one of our best on ball defenders. Love his play and he seems accepting of his role.

I see what you did there - IQ... hurt you. You'll have to save this one for next week's 4 bar Friday. lol

And yes, Wright is such a huge upgrade that I refuse to mention last year's 6th man of the year nominee (by 1 vote) and Wright's name in the same sentence.

I'd win on straight awkwardness alone. :MARIS61:

The great thing about wright is you don't see him fucking things up and making bonehead plays. Something our previous reserve SFs did on a constant basis last season.

Great point. He actually did something bad like that last night and I was shocked and surprised. Then I realized how nice it was to be shocked by a bad play by a reserve as opposed to expecting it at any moment.

Howd'ja know? How do you know my name isn't James Jones?

The pickups were thought out just right and the pieces fit correctly. Let's see if this keeps up but the chemistry of this team is amazing

What was the term used this summer--"bargain bin shopping", or something like that?

Ben Golliver called it "soup kitchen scrounging"

Arg!!!! I was trying to forget he even said that. That was what completely set me off last summer on a hate rage on Golliver!
