I like it....energy, defense, hustle, ball movement. Our window isn't now anyways....let's keep developing our homegrown talent and see how good they can get. IQ is showing he can run the squad and if Obi's shooting continues, he can be effective even with Mitch clogging the paint.

Btw, Obi is a testament to why “you gotta prove it in your shytty spot minutes” is bullshyt most of the time. You need real minutes to show what you can do on a basketball floor. It just won’t happen in short 4 minutes spurts.

I had a long post about Obi needing minutes to find rhythm and confidence right before this run happened and I swear that post predicted this performance exactly.

This is all I wanted after our season went to shyt when we beat the Hawks and were .500. Play the youth and see what you have. Sims looks like a good backup. Obi looks like he's ready for more than 10 minutes a game. Quickley is a solid PG option and you can make a case to trade Rose in the offseason if we find a Starter.

Yes we are

My nikka want them street team checks I see you

lol I feel you fam, but I like the idea of Cam in the second unit with Rose and Fournier or Burks.

40 piece for Obi as the Garden chants his name

 

[CapitalOne]

Obi 42 pts
Quickley triple double

Thibs really had this nicca getting 10 minutes a game. He should be fired off that alone. I know its late season fukkery but this is crazy.
