this guy is gonna sign a monster deal with us an end up being a Kawhi caliber player. OG absolutely has levels to unlock and Thibs is absolutely the guy to get him there. His ability to drive, shoot and his sweet mid range jumper all scream 20ppg with all NBA defense.

I cant believe there was a time I thought Brandon Ingram was a good target.

This FO knows exactly what they are doing with the players and the coaches. Its just fun to finally watch a quality process

Paired with Randle in the Frontcourt is a beast line up. Not sure OG quite gets the 20ppg but the intangible defense, tips, steals, block, and rebounds make things so much easier for Randle, and visa versa when the ball gets to OG. Very different player then RJ but a better fit with Jules.

While im no grad of the minutes police academy I do see what we are doing. Thibs is stretching this season as long as he can and eventually the elastic will run out. When? Who can tell but "next man up" is running thin. Thibs is like a submarine captain in most movies were he takes them down to depths and risks it all. Thibs will extract a lot from this team. Im enjoying the run. My hope is we can dispense of Indy quickly and Boston gets tangled up with Clev for a long series.

I think that is the dream. A few extra days rest.
