agreed ... partially I have seen instances where the talking heads say something along the lines of 'something something something destroyed the young guy's already fragile confidence ...' ' a not fully physically developed young man playing against full grown men who are chomping at the bit to 'welcome' yung'uns to the league' So ... yeah - I think he definitely is going to be rushed into a role that he my not yet ready for ... but then - how does he get ready if not by getting reps ? I guess I agree NO CODDLING ... But - yes feed him again and again and again ... he gets it or he doesn't . I mean ... what did we really have to lose? Compare that to what we stand to gain . Even if its just proof that says - nope. not the guy... need to keep looking It MAY end up as WOW - had Marc and Mike been allowed to keep going with the 'hot potato two man game -> we may not have had the chance to see him go get it. Now -He's got his chance - deservedly or not ... you don't get drafted that high to be a role player. I wanna see what he's capable of. I want to see him WIN ... and I really believe he CAN !

* plus one two hand floor slap * part snarl . more sneer FIRST TEAM ALL DEFENSE 😉 ( maybe a missed layup or two - but still ... ALL HEART ! )

I'm already suffering withdrawal symptoms! Heading to the Liberty Bowl tomorrow night to see some football! I hope these guys go hard... we - as a city - could use a few wins SOMEWHERE!

You looked ? on purpose? are you ok? need some hep? Want to talk about it? 😬

TOMMY (to Henry): Funny how? I mean, what’s funny about it?ANTHONY (to Tommy, worriedly): 😅Tommy, no, you got it all wrong … TOMMY (to Anthony): Whoa, whoa, Anthony! He’s a big boy, he knows what he said.😑 TOMMY (to Henry): What’d you say? Funny how? What? HENRY (to Tommy): Just, you know, you’re funny. TOMMY (to Henry): I’m funny how, I mean funny like I’m a clown? I amuse you? 🤣😂🤣

I liked yellow say it twice 😬

Regulars , old dusty posters long time lurkers new posters stans haters fact spitting future telling past misrememerin and everyone else - please follow the rules ... short leash... straight to the *poof* -toke

Agreed about 13 and the free throws especially. He BEATS HIMSELF UP for EVERY mistake he makes. It is great to see that he cares so much... just gotta be able to reel himself back in and get a 'next play' mentality. Free throws are not new. He knows how to shoot em... Late in games - too lazy to look again but I believe it was the game before last - yup Pelicans ... end game situation ... 13 on the line for 2 shots... missed 'em both... almost lost his composure - Mike actually snapped him back into it... he ran back on D ... got a block and the ball ended up in Holiday's hands... foul . Holiday to the line where he FINISHES IT - Grizz STILL won. Long winded way to make a point - gotta learn to control the fire to compete and win... can't let it burn you up. Missed the freebies BUT made the defensive play to get the ball back to set up the eventual win. I have full confidence that he WILL get it... he keeps getting better. Like you said - truly great players learn from situations like these. I know he'll learn.

🙄 uhhh... get a room ? 😬

I hear you ... but , Zbo wasn't highly regarded when he got here ... He went right to work on making his mark HERE though. I recall SEVERAL fans ... (a few / LOT ) right here on these boards that swore he'd be a cancer to the team blah blah blah... we all know how that turned out though AB has his shot to re-create himself here... I hope he BALLS OUT!
