Freak, how did McRae and Golden look when you saw them in the 2 on 2?

It's difficult to get much analysis on such a short game and I'm by no means an expert evaluator, but here are my thoughts.

McRae was very long and athletic, but very skinny. I was impressed with his athleticism and he looks to be a good outside shooter. I think with his size and skill set, he could be very versatile in Pearl's system.

I definitely can see potential in Golden but he was unable to beat his man off the dribble. He also had a couple of shots deflected. I'm anxious to watch him tonight because I'm sure he can play much better than what I saw in that short game.

Keep in mind, these two only played one game in the 2-on-2 and lost a close one to the team that won the championship.

Thanks, Freak. Great info. Let us know what Golden looks like tonight if you don't care.
