Ish is a better player, at least for SVG's offense.  I'm personally not looking forward to Reggie coming back, so I hope they sit him down for the season and trade him around the draft.

If you excuse me, I'll go back to looking at Donovan Mitchell's stats line while wearing a Luke Kennard jersey.

j/k sorta, at least about the jersey.

Couple additional notes: Burke led all scorers with his 26. Both Burke and THJr also led the game with 6 assists each.

Getting some run again.. He was really playing well then was relegated to the bench when the Knicks picked up Mudiay. I hope they don't sit him again if his play affects their lottery order.

If anything Mudiay means Jack gets waived. There's room for Trey to get run, particularly with Mudiay and Frank having the size to play alongside him.

Trey probably won't start since the others are younger/bigger/better defenders/under team control/have higher ceilings, but I think Trey is better suited long-term as a bench scorer anyway.

I was there in Orlando tonight. THJR has turned in to a really well rounded NBA player. Trey, ahhhh, that was fun to watch. He just really got it going like he was playing Illinois or something. So happy for him.

I am pleasantly surprised to see Burke become a competent NBA player. Still not much of a defender, but he plays the position well enough offensively now. And Hardaway being a legitimate two-way player is great to see.
