  1. Isaac did a fantastic job on Tatum as well holding him to just 7 points. He had double digit scoring in their first three games
  2. Yes these guys need someone who is going to hold them accountable. But Clifford seems to do it in the right way .
  3. Health is going to be the big factor of course, people forget and Clifford pointed it out when he was first hired how many games core guys missed. And we can already see Clifford is a much better Xs and Os and overall game strategy coach than Vogel ever was. In the East you have Boston, Philly, and Toronto as the clear top teams outside of that the remaining 5 spots are up for grabs pretty much.
  4. Not the prettiest win but you take them however you get them. The 2nd unit with AG was amazing. Such great effort and swarming defense T Ross was a beast if he can get his shot going he could have a nice year. And Mo Bamba was incredible reminded me so much of Dwight's first game with the impact he had. We got one finally! If AG can play like this consistently hell be an all star.
  5. I thought going into the draft that there was a chance Bamba could fall to us and I would be completely ok with that. He's one of those proverbial unicorn prospects that has so much upside. Plus there was talk that Ainge was looking to move up to take him as well.
  6. I see him as more of a perimeter oriented big after seeing him play last night at least at this point in his career.
  7. Yes he's got to use his length and quickness against Ayton and not try to body him up.
  8. Happened the last game too. Guys would drive see Bamba and/or Isaac there and just kick out or flat out turn it over. JJJ tried to challenge early and both of them said no son this is where the big boys play :)
  9. Yeah Isaac is built for today's NBA. He's already a great defender and rim protector and causes havoc with those long arms. Once he gets more confidence in his shot and offensive game he's gonna be something to see.
  10. Yes. We don't need him to put up 20 points a game just be efficient and get people involved like he did last night. He was 4 rebounds shy of a triple double his first game back and not even at 100%.
  11. Absolutely. One another board I frequent people were actually suggesting trading him when we were playing so well.....
  12. This is why I think this start is for real. This is some rarefied air to be in.
  13. What a win hadn't won in Memphis in almost 10 years. No way they win this last year or in previous seasons. That's what good teams do....find a way to win despite not playing their best even though them missing shots late helped too but you have to get yourself in position to win at the end. Jonathan Isaac is going to be a special player. I knew he would be contributing right away on the defensive end of the floor but he's been one of the anchors of the defense. And that bank 3 was clutch, once his offense catches up he's going to be something to see. It's still really early so I keep trying to temper my excitement but they just keep getting it done.
  14. Haha yep or close to it. To be completely fair to him he slipped on one of them (Vuc almost hurt himself slipping earlier in the game too) and on the other Vuc was held and it wasn't called.
