Off topic but another exciting g-league game.
ACC vs. SBL
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kEsWjeQ-Sw
Wright & King are interesting prospects.
Wright is still relatively young at 23. At 6-9, he’s bit undersized as a big. But this guy is explosive athlete with good handle. (Him spinning around Bol Bol finished with thunderous dunk in preseason is good sample of his offensive skill)
King is quite unique. At 27 turning 28, he’s old as a prospect. But this guy is ready to play. He logs 42 min in this game with stat line of 14p/12r/4a/3s/3b. He’s 6-6 wing with nearly 7ft wingspan. Getting draft by the Suns in the late 2nd round, he then spent the last few years in Europe. He has a very solid game in the g-league : good defender, good shooting, nice size for a flexible wings and big match up.
Long story short, if we actually make a trade and there is some roster spot open, even for a 2-way spot. I think we have a nice collection of talents in the g-league waiting to play.

These comments sections have become a deserted ghost town… Lucas has gone off to Twitterland. No doubt others too.

Got some thots for you. Have to say that aside from the Lakes (who effing lucked out vs. Mavs last nite), Utah has to be my most hated team. Clarkson, who was a big Lake disappointment, now never seems to miss a shot and Bogie is another dead eye. Mitchell is Mr. Histrionics and the Utah crowd is full of nasty asses–a very tough place to play. Nic and the 2 studs must’ve been thinking that the Clips could acquit themselves quite well vs. these guys if everyone was good to go. If only…
Bled was fantastic, especially his 3 ball but all phases really. Would love to see that continue.
Reggie’s ailing obviously. When you’re down players, the stress on the remaining guys just becomes too much eventually. Tough for the players and the coaches. Really, really need Nic and PG back to take some pressure off the rest of the guys.
Where has Boston’s shot gone? Kid must be depressed. Hope he’s getting up some shots right now.
Hart is so damn skilled. I’ll keep yelling for him to start until the cows come home.
Zu–quit complaining and just play the game. Bad attitude.
Mann disappeared and I think Utah wanted to send him a message that his last yrs PO outburst was a one off. Message sent.
Onward.

Just finally watched it on DVR. That wasn’t bad at all. They had virtually every advantage and we still had it to single digits multiple times in the 4th. ACC vs South Bay Lakers Thursday night at 7pm. I wonder if they will make the trouble of sending a couple of the kids back to play in that one? Hope so.

The Clips fought hard, but as expected we weren't able to overcome the overwhelming gap in talent (and health). Bledsoe had an amazing shooting game, Hart is making it harder and harder for me to picture us keeping him next season (in a good way, obviously), and MM continues on his streak of great games. In terms of negatives, Luke and Mann vanished offensively, and it turns out Boston may not be a 25ppg scorer at the NBA level just yet. Also I'm legit concerned about the Serge situation, but given how little we actually know there's not much we can realistically discuss yet. Glad we get a couple days off before OKC. I hope PG13 and Batum will be back to full health by then, but if they aren't I'm totally cool w/ more Canoes games

Nice recap writing, Ralston!
