No Mitchell? That is a big time loss. But if the ankle needs time off to then take the entire month off. It would be painful, but heck we really need him for the playoffs.
Okay, moment of truth here. Time to show em what made you MVP of the NCAA Finals Butler!
 
I miss the post up game. Back in the day if Bogie had been defended by Young he would’ve backed him into the paint and scored an easy one. No one wants to post up anymore. So he took a few dribbles, gave up on the post, and threw some crappy pass.
 
So message is clear: only LeBron is allowed to take 3+ steps going to the rim.
 
JC about to miss 20 straight threes... yeesh.
 
I think Paschall has done an admirable job in that role and we'll see how Gay comes back from injury....but Niang could have been a great value asset that we just let go. He's getting paid $3.3M a year for two seasons, barely over the minimum. Bertans got payed $80M over 5 years and I'm not sure he's even better than Niang. Bertans wasn't the only one who got paid either....Robinson, McDermott, and Kennard got the bag as well. I thought it was kinda crazy that Niang got as little as he did. Even if he's not as good as those guys he's getting a third or even closer to a fifth of what some exclusive shooter types got.

I was huge on resigning Niang. I don't think we're necessarily missing him because we're still playing well, but that was a good opportunity to lock down a rotation player for cheap. Nice to have cheap contracts on the books when you're entering repeater tax.

Naing was good in the regular season but disappeared in the playoffs.
