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.

Doubt it, he's a a big ol butterfly when the games actually matter.

Josh Jackson is going to be a stud.

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.

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.

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.

Yeah, he looks more like a lottery pick tonight.

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