10+ years ago - definitely. But Okafor's struggles (although Carter is superior defensively) highlight how the game has changed and Bagley is ideal for the current NBA style.

I think a kickout to an open Gary or Grayson is always a shot we are gonna take and I’m fine with it. Haven’t had any quick jumpers without passing so far and have controlled the turnovers since the first few minutes. We should send a gift basket to whatever idiot RI fans decided to piss of Wendell. Also, I seem to recall another game where Grayson dove to the ground and swatted the ball to keep it inbounds...
I have a friend at the game. I just texted him to see if he has any details on what was happening
This team is playing really well. When they shoot 3s well and can hit FTs, they are as good as anyone. But, that's a significant "if."
Gotta keep it going and not give them momentum with bad possessions. RI gets close or keeps it close and they'll start to believe.
We don't need that typical 3-4 minute stretch of being undisciplined . If we do that, this RI team will be right back in it
