Tone with the History lesson. #gettingschooledoffthecourt

 

[riverman]

It's great that all our bigs can shoot so well. Lopez is like Godzilla out there plowing his way through those guys

 

[Darkwebs]

LMA is heating up

 

[Darkwebs]

Stotts should just let the bench play the rest of the game from this point on

Full agreeance.

Anybody watching the stream who can tell me how Dame looks tonight, foot seem ok?

Foot looks OK but he looks a little rusty as expected

 

[riverman]

I think the starters need to get the rust off together a bit in these last games. Not big minutes but minutes

 

[riverman]

I'm stoked about the bench play

 

[Strenuus]

This game can't be used for any barometer, unfortunately.

It's a practice game at best but anytime Joel Freeland makes two shots in a row, I feel better

 

[riverman]

There's some Dame rust on the floor after that 3

 

[riverman]

Wesley has been shooting like Curry

 

[Darkwebs]

Rusty Dame misses an easy lay-in

 

[riverman]

LA has 5 assists

Rusty Dame misses an easy lay-in

And then nails another 3

WES ON FIRE!

 

[riverman]

Wes again! I'm tellin' ya, he's arrived

 

[Boise Blazer]

It's interesting, Lillard clearly looks rusty and is tied for our leading scorer.

 

[Boise Blazer]

Wes is locked in already

 

[Strenuus]

Why are they still in? This game doesnt mean anything. lol.

 

[Boise Blazer]

I suspect that this spread out scoring we have seen this pre-season is going to be how it is in the regular season too. A lot weapons and rolling with whoever is open or hot

 

[Strenuus]

Maybe I was wrong. There is one thing we can learn from this game. Stotts is going to rely on the starters too damn much.

I really don't think so. We've had over 50pts from the bench two games in a row and this is just dress rehearsal for the starters

One half for the starters, one half for the bench. He risked it today for a game that meant nothing. I think it's just Stotts MO to play the hell out of the starters.


Maybe that's how we'll get a top flight FA here.

 

[riverman]

The alley oop is back!

 

[Darkwebs]

Kaman lobs to Leonard for the dunk!

 

[Boise Blazer]

Kaman continues to impress more and more. Now it's with his passing.

 

[riverman]

Kaman almost has a double double in 12.5 minutes

 

[Strenuus]

I wouldn't mind this group as a second unit.
