He is quite a talent, but there's tons of evidence that all he wants to do is put up his shots. I have no idea how he and Cam Whitmore can possibly coexist. While Allen doesn't exactly have blinders on like Cam, Allen likes to watch himself get up shots.

The thing is Teddy Allen can score.

Last year I went and saw Cam tear it up. This year no such luck. No Reed Sheppard. Thon Maker wasn't even there!

Remember this is the Gleague so everything noted is in relation to that level of play.

I would never go to an Austin Spurs game if they weren't playing RGV. Maybe if they had a player I really wanted to see. Less than five minutes into the game my...

Apart from watching Clark, Hartenstein, and Clemons, these players interest me:

Blossomgame - he rebounded well in summer league and played for the Cavs for a few games last year

McDowell-White - a big PG is always worth following to see if he's any good

Roach - I went to UT many years ago. This guy can really defend but needs to get his head on...

New coach, same results. It was awesome watching our future Rockets PG TyTy take charge and show he can run our Rockets squad for the future.

They were also the 6th seed going in......hmm, haven't we seen this story before? ]]> 1 Fri, 13 Jan 2023 22:51:16 +0000 https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/rgv-representing-in-fiba-intercontinental-cup-2-10-2-12-23.318176/ https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/rgv-representing-in-fiba-intercontinental-cup-2-10-2-12-23.318176/ invalid@example.com (Rockets34Legend) Rockets34Legend ]]> 2 Tue, 27 Dec 2022 00:50:53 +0000 https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/sixers-sign-louis-king-away-from-the-vipers.318161/ https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/sixers-sign-louis-king-away-from-the-vipers.318161/ invalid@example.com (Dr of Dunk) Dr of Dunk
