Lens checking in. He's gonna come in and wreck the Lakers down low.

Good start for Chriss. Nice D and a nice pass.

Mike James is the first guard off the bench, and he immediately finds Jackson for a 3.

Chriss in for Warren, and is getting his hands on some shots.

Remember when we thought Jackson couldn't shoot?

Lonzo Ball just hit a 3 going right. Remember before the draft when the scouting report was that he would never be able to shoot off the dribble going right? Well, he can now.

Now with a turnaround jumper from mid range - another thing he wasn't supposed to be able to do. Ball is a future HOF player.

Got Dang.

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Why wouldn't he stay assuming he's offered a good contract? He'd have a starting spot locked down.
Do you want to offer Bradley a big contract? He's not a PG and he's about the same age as Bledsoe. And he can start in many places, he wouldn't need to stay here.

I haven't looked at the specifics, I just think Bradley would be a good fit here.

Also, I see we've decided not to play defense again tonight.
Go Suns!

He might be our best all around player already.

He handles the ball so much better than I expected. Plus he's a good physical defender. If his shot and his handles keep improving, he might be our best PG, SF, and PF next season. He's a breath of fresh air on this team.

Agree. His handles have impressed me. Much better than I anticipated.

Chriss hasn't made a big impact but he's looking very physical, active and engaged.

Yes. We were counting on him having a bunch of holes in his game after the Lakers got him.

Just got to remember he's playing us. He didn't look so hot last night against Beverley
