Even in a big blowout game like this, I just can't enjoy Svi's game at all

Joe challenged an OOB in a meaningless game up 1,000 points.

Y'all can convince me of a lot of things but no one will convince me JD isn't an nba level passer. if he was on a bad team getting a lot of minutes he would have proven it by now. he can see and make some difficult passes. he can see the floor very well. I hope we don't give up on him. he has very good pace too. I'm still on his boat.

Cool to see these guys (on both teams) hustling and playing so hard in a meaningless game.

The only meaning this game has is the hornets improving their lottery odds if they lose lol.

Think Joe wants to show he’s fully locked in no matter who’s playing.

That's why I think Cs will promote him and move Springer.

JD will be cheaper and the Cs will need that 4th PG.

That level of consistency is hard to do in an 82-game season.

joe told you why he makes these challenges, these guys deserve him coaching them as he would the stars. sure, it's over, but some of these guys never get to see that he cares just as much about their development as he does standard players. let him ride for them too! padding his coaching stats don't hurt either. :lol:

Walsh will be a different player when he adds 15 pounds of muscle.

Yes. But still holding out hope they let him play-make a bit at the 2/3.

Damn, Bailey clobbered Springer there. Almost a flagrant foul in the last 2 mins of a blowout lol..

They're a couple of hard nosed guards. I bet if those 2 guys played 1 on 1 for awhile, there would be some blood.
