    So what? Is that a focus thing? Why would Ainge trade him to us?

    Ainge covets picks above all else. Remember when he was in Boston how many first round picks they had that they never traded? He just hoards them. The Jazz have FIFTEEN first round picks right now.

    Anyway, on Vanderbilt, I love this dude already, what an energy guy and solid defender. 12/8 and 4 assists in only 17 minutes tonight. He rebounds like a fiend.

    I love this guy.

    He's got the AD instincts plus that motor. Handy needs to work on that corner 3!

    I like him off the bench because that's red bull laced with cocaine straight into the blood stream of that lineup.

    What a great debut, that type of energy and effort is infectious and is something we have lacked.

    Vando's activity level tonight:

    What surprised me: he has a nice handle for a player his size, a nice touch around the basket, and he made some smart plays.

    Ainge = idiot.

    Agree with all who love him …. wow! And he can handle the ball some and made at least one sick pass plus that spin move at speed for the lay in was technically better than some of the ones LeBron gets away with. Rebounds! Works his a** off and’s got maybe a better motor than Wenyan. Smooth speed and great length. Blows me away that with all that pressure and no one wanting Russ that somehow Rob was able to get him traded at the bell in a three team deal for the top 4 protected pick to net us Vandy, Russell and Beasley. :rock: :cool:

    The 2 KY Wildcat Lakers what a nice duo when you need some tall energy out there on D. I know it’s not up to what we lost with the Schroder / Beverley pairing but Vandy almost makes up for losing Pat. :rofl: :rock: :cool:

    I've watched this like 6 times and I'm .more impressed each time I watch it. Have no idea why Utah gave up on him. He's only 23!

    What a great pickup!! I wasn't clued in to Vandy's game, but now consider me a huge fan. I loved his energy. It was contagious. He and Rui are my new favorite players.
