Justin Verrier

Yeah, for sure.

Sixth man.

The dumbest award on the books here.

I'll just do my usual spiel that I don't care who wins this because it just rewards someone who excels but isn't good enough in order to do that within the context of a starting lineup.

Stupid.

It's a relic of the past.

I get that it mattered more early on because they wanted to reward bench guys.

Don't need it anymore.

But congrats to Jaime Jaquez.

You're good off the bench.

Yeah, talking about reinvention, that Kelton has basically become a bully ball bench scorer is not something I really saw for him.

It is a good use of him, and I'm glad that he's kind of found his footing.

But you're right.

I didn't realize that you can go outside of the 65 game rule for this.

Another reason why this is the dumbest fucking award that we give.

Maybe dumber than Clutch Award, honestly.

AJ's the better player, certainly.

But if we're going by typical metrics and he scores the most points off the bench, I'll lean Kelton.

I scoffed at Dennis Jenkins.

I apologize to Dennis and the whole Dennis family.
