    Great feel for the game. Made Scoot look small.

    It helps when the player actually likes the game of basketball.

    What actually impressed me the most about Amen tonight was how quickly he looked to recover on blown defensive coverage.

    Wise choice, we all saw what happened with Chet last year. No need to risk anything.

    I would not mind if Stone was let go in favor of someone else. Not advocating for it, just saying Fertits can replace him and I'll be open minded.

    Him and Scoot were the main draw.

    Fertitta prayed for Victor.

    Thank God he got an Amen.

    That‘s actually one of the things I was worried about with him, simply because of the pure chaos that OTE was. I expected flashy plays from him, and him creating for others - I didn‘t expect him to provide structure to the game and to play fully within the offense. I actually expected that more from Scoot and he was kinda the other way around. Yeah, Scoot is also controlled with his athleticism, but he tried to always take the game in his own hands - perfectly fine for summer league and probably just shows, that he has everything to turn into a star. But Amen played way better than I expected.
