If Layman can consistently hit that mid-range jumper, that would cure a lot of our ills right there.

lol tyson chandler just bouncing collins off like a kid

 

[Strenuus]

Caleb has no hops. lol.

 

[JDC]

I feel like Collins has lost weight since summer league.

 

[BlayZa]

i really want swagigan to be Ed V2.

Collins got a way to go before he can fill in for Ed Davis in the toughness department.

 

[illmatic99]

Shooting looks impressive

 

[Driew]

i really want swagigan to be Ed V2.

He's got the hustle--just needs playing time to learn the NBA game imo.

 

[Strenuus]

So far no Meyers. I'm happy.

 

[ripcityboy]

Curry looks good. If he stays healthy I might actually give Olshey credit for something.

 

[James lamphear]

Our bench came in and already with 11 points. Overall a good 1st QT.

 

[JDC]

Both Collins and Swanigan are good screen setters. Helps both Stauskas and Curry.

And Swanigan has his issues physically, but he's a better rebounder and defender than Meyers. More versatile on offense too.

 

[BonesJones]

I haven't seen any new sets or wrinkles this game... Maybe Stotts doesn't want to give much away, but still. Basic high pick n roll with Dame pounding the ball for the 1st 9 minutes.

 

[Jade Falcon]

Curry looks good. If he stays healthy I might actually give Olshey credit for something.

How about whatever his name is....Staukus. He's doing okay.

 

[Strenuus]

ET with the hesitation?!

 

[BonesJones]

Zach's defense has been quietly great.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

How about whatever his name is....Staukus. He's doing okay.

ill give him some credit, he can put the ball on the ground and get a shot pretty decently and that three he hit fading away from 28 feet was money.

 

[BonesJones]

Curry reminds me of CJ without all the ball pounding.

 

[Strenuus]

So many whistles.

 

[THE HCP]

Is this game being shown on TV?

AAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!

 

[BonesJones]

Baseline ref in the opposite corner... You have no angle on that call. You're the last one that should be blowing your whistle there... Jeez...

 

[ripcityboy]

How about whatever his name is....Staukus. He's doing okay.

As long as he doesn't play defense.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Curry reminds me of CJ without all the ball pounding.

He doesn't seem nearly as shifty to me... He can shoot really good.

 

[Strenuus]

ET looks like he has bingo daubs on his shoulder.

BINGO!

 

[BlayZa]

So far no Meyers. I'm happy.

its been the best coaching move so far in this game.

josh jackson tech FT looooooooooooooooool

 

[BonesJones]

So many whistles.

Been like this every pre-season game. No flow. It's ridiculous.

 

[BonesJones]

What was that Stauskas...?

 

[Strenuus]

A non jump shooting ET? WUT

 

[ripcityboy]

Turner sure loves going up and under the hoop.

 

[riverman]

Bench mob came to play!
