    You or I don't want Zach.

    Long season. Can't get too high or too low. There were great Austin games and sh***Y ones. He's been good for the most part.

    Buha made an interesting point about how Austin is deployed: he can't be a POA guy and still be asked to do everything on offense. He's also logged a log of minutes along with Luka.

    JJ mentioned last night that Austin's legs were spent or something to that effect. I mean, he does go through these cold streak with this shooting, though. Either way, we knew this going into the season. You can't have a 41 year old and Rui out there with Luka and Austin defensively. Such a slow starting 5.

    ding ding ding. reaves can't be the POA defender. it's insanity. not his fault, either. everyone knows that's not the right role for him on defense, and he's fine as a chaser and even on-ball against most sgs and sfs.

    AR's legs are going - happens to him every year. He'll get them back soon - typically does
