    Also, keep in mind Jabari was an 18-year-old who just turned 19 two months ago.

    It's hard for fans to be patient, but typically rookies develop over years. I wouldn't judge these guys until near the end of their rookie contracts.

    But look at all time great players, unless they are PGs, they are all great defensively.

    Guys like Lebron, Giannis, Jordan, Hakeem, the all time super greats do it on both ends. Jabari CAN be great offensively, might take it a few seasons to get there, but he can get there. I don't think that's true for Paolo on defensive. I just do not see the defensive potential for him.

    OKC fans must be so disappointed with Tre Mann.

    Josh Giddy really sucked down the stretch

    Give Trhae Mitchell some props on that play. I think he knocked that ball away. Need a good shot here. No turnovers!

    Jabari is a winner. Say what you want about his shot tonight, but he just does things on the court that helps you win games even when he is off
