    Born and raised in Q.C. (Quarantined by COVID-19 nowadays :cry:) and travel to work everyday to B.G.C.

    Back on topic, though. I agree with some that THT is not really NBA ready, but his ability to create his own shot and some sick moves I'm curious to see how he performs on the main roster. I guess we'll never know until this crap we're all going through subsides...

    We’ll always have the Bucks and Clippers weekend at the end closest to playoffs with teams gelling if the season is toast.

    wow. impressed. even if it’s with scrubs. giannis-like length... kawhi-like movement/dribbling, wade-like height...

    Always liked this signing. Was hoping to see him during the regular Season, but we didn't need him.
    Is he gonna be on the restart Roster..?

    No, Cacock and Kostas. And maybe JR Smith now?

    Looks like a taller and longer Shannon Brown. Needs more minutes. Liked what I saw from him yesterday. He needs to learn to stay centered defensively though he gets easily deceived and beaten off the dribble.

    Welcome to the playoffs rook! A little too trigger happy, but dig the effort and confidence on both sides. Played like he belonged, which I like.

    I'd rather him be over aggressive than under. Great game for him.

    Great first playoff game for the 19 year old rookie. You can’t teach energy and he has it in spades.

    Great to see him get some burn tonight. Good on Vogel for putting him in and THT delivered. Made the most of his opportunity and we may see him again as a result. Love it.

    The only downside to his 5 minute Playoff shine is that other teams are gonna ask for him to be included when we go shopping in the offseason to trade Danny Green.

    THT was NOT afraid of the moment.

    That's something you can't teach.
