He's getting more minutes than Trendon Watford. Oh darn.

Didn’t watch but did Keon Ellis start last night as well?

Josh Primo is the guy that I really think should have stayed at least another year.

If the goal is the NBA why go so early that you have to play in the g league?

Primo had a delicate issue with the Spurs I do believe as well. That might have branded him in a negative light.

 

[Coach D]

Lot of Bama guys getting Pt it seems. Oats has really created something great here. He can scout, develop and win.

PS, Primo did play for the Spurs some as a rookie. He bounced between Spurs and GLeauge....just like Clowney has done this year.

Primo should be okay going forward. Clowney has played well and likely will be starting or coming off bench next year.

Keon Ellis had 26 last night.

 

[dayhiker]

Clowney had 7 blocks in his start last night. Wow.

The Clippers waived Josh Primo. They signed a backup center for the playoff run and needed a roster spot.

Brandon Miller received 3rd consecutive Rookie of the Month award

From what I remember from Primo actually playing at the Spurs he was a really solid player. Of course before he got into trouble. Doesn't make sense why he can't make it back on a roster. He was a first rounder after all.

If it wasn't for Wemby I think he'd have a serious shot at ROY.

Kind of surprising that Clowney wasn’t mentioned in their re-ranking

He didn't play in the NBA much. He was mainly G League until the last 2-3 weeks.

Last night during the Pelicans game they mentioned that Herb was a top 20 3pt shooter and talked about how much he'd improved his shooting. I was shocked. I looked it up and he is currently 16th at 41.8%

I remember how atrocious his shooting was in 1st year or 2 at Bama. He was a bricklayer. A testament to his hard work!!!

Keon scored 15 points last night. Sacramento eliminates the Warriors.
Sacramento vs New Orleans Friday night.

eta. Keon did a good job defending Steph Curry.

Herb was on the all NBA defensive first team. Only one on the first team that isn’t a center.

 

[dayhiker]

Miller was #3 in ROY voting and was first team All-Rookie.

I think I read that the only other all-defense first teamer we've had besides Jones was Gerald Wallace. Those teams must not have existed back when TR Dunn played.
