Ellenson impressive in unexpected significant minutes. What a find!
Mitch is something to behold! What a find!
Mudiay the xtremely solid! What a find!
Trier amazing and clutch. What a find!
When is management gonna get due? Yes, we have a hard time winning and always seem to go missing on a quarter that ends up costing us the game, but boy has Perry and crew kept working hard on bringing guys with talent and a chip on their shoulders. I LOVE that approach. Makes this rebuilding so much more entertaining.
Tank takes another hit, and I might regret it on draft night, but man does it feel exciting to win with this young group!

Dotson is now one of the older players on the team after lance Thomas. He’s talking to LT as a peer in the huddle after the game. John Jenkins is 27 but coming from g-league and Mario is inactive. Kadeem in westchester

I agree. They have done a great job. I also really like Kadeem.

Mitch is the key, he is playing like an All-Star every game now. Looks like the team believes in themselves now and have a lot of confidence!

The KP trade is the reason for Money Mitch rise....D.Jordan has been his personal trainer and advisor on how to dominate as a center and a professional. D.Jordan has been a majkr impact on Mitch. He was doing this in Lifetime fitness....so im not surprised. Just wait when he builds confidence in that jumper.....That what i seen him do the just up close b4 he was drafted. Shooting 3s and creating off the dribble. Hes our poor man Capella.

Me neither, the handling, passing, shooting is exactly what the team has longed for from the forward positions.

This guy played winning basketball, he never held on to the ball, he either made his move, took the shot or pass the ball within seconds.

yeah i like everything but the w at the end of the process.
but overall if this keeps up it means that we really are developing a strong youthful core to carry forward. and that fiz really does have effective schemes.
those 2 factors might be more important than draft position. there i said it - in terms of who we're trying to attract as fa's and where we're ultimately trying to go.
just say no to gutting this team for ad.

I am all for more ping pong balls but the development of young players is so much more important to my mind. Seeing what Mitch is becoming is fantastic, and other players are making steps too -- do you tell them to lose on purpose? I completely agree with your points including not giving up on this 'process" to sign superstars.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Winning basketball, help defense leading to TO, hit open shots, created for his teammates, rebounded the basketball. All the other young players need to take notes.
NYKBocker@ 2/27/2019 10:30 AM
That last block by Mitch was a foul. I think he is getting a reputation of a shot blocker with the refs and is giving him the benefit of the doubt on bang bang plays. I love it!

One max player will be enough and I don't want Durant!

Don't watch Capella much and wonder why you would think of Mitch in terms of "poor man Capella". You comparing today Mitch with today Capella in terms of "poor man"?

I was saying the same thing to myself, he also moves with out the ball, and when he did pass, he got the hell out of the way to keep the spacing, I was definitely impress

Surprised by this comparison (in part because blkexec ran with Mitch)
See someone who needs to spend more time on his footwork. Still is very good at moving without the ball, in a way Capella isnt. Better anticipation, as a rookie IMO.
