So you want him to take a pay cut?

This man deserves some love. He's been consistent, and has contributed valuable minutes amongst a struggling and inconsistent supporting cast.

Another solid game tonight.

I don’t know why people were so hard on him in the first place. It was not his fault that ham played him 35 minutes a game when he was just a bench player who can give us some decent minutes.
Good signing actually


People don't understand matchups and roles. They're down on Rui and up on Prince. Some of it is merited. But some has to do with the fact that Rui is unable to bully Denver's big 3 and is unable to compensate due to his lack of (relative) quickness. Prince is craftier, more finesse and a bit quicker so is having better success. Look for Denver to try to take advantage of Prince later this series with their bigger FC. Prince's difficulties earlier in the season coincided with him being forced to play at the 4, that can only work against some teams.

LG when they realize that Prince spacing at the wing is what unlocked LeBron at the corner on the DLO/AR + AD PnR:

There's a stat that got posted in an article:

Back in March, Senior NBA Reporter Jovan Buha revealed that Anthony Davis and LeBron James play better without Prince, via Sportskeeda.

Davis and James have the ninth-best point differential in the league. The duo outscored their opponents by 3.3 points per hundred possessions.

However, with Prince out of the lineup, their net differential increases to 10.1 points per hundred possessions, making them the second-best in the league.

Why would Prince be bringing them down?

Gabe-Cam-Prince-Wood are good back ups, just don’t put them in position of having to do too much

Solid coming off the bench, knew his role and played it well. Should have always been his role as it's the role we signed him for.
