Hopefully next game we start to solidify line ups. It does feel like Luke wants jc off bench. |
Yeah it's starting to like like that might be a possibility. JC really brings it off the bench. But Lou starting is just so ....ugh |
Agree. If JC comes off the bench, we need an Avery Bradley at the SG position. |

Thanks DB! 
Didn't catch too much of the game yesterday, but I did see Russell's flurry at the end of the 2nd.
Looks like I missed a good one! |

DB - a very belated thank you for your write up on the dozen-and-a-half players who are playing every night right now!
In the game thread I had the same thought you expressed here - this team looks more organized Game 2 of Preseason than they looked last April. It wasn't just my eyes deceiving me. Either Luke is THAT good of a coach, BS was THAT bad of a coach, or both.
These preseason games really matter!! Not the final score, but how these teams get knitted together for the regular season. It's good that we gave our deep bench and camp invite crew time too so we could evaluate them, even if it means a 4 point loss.
Very encouraging seeing what's happening with DLO, Clarkson, Nance, Ingram, Black, and this game Randle as well. ZuBlocka showed a hint of formidable, in the brief glimpse we got. These guys are starting to play some organized defense.
Clarkson and DLO - I'm wondering if our fears about defense from our guards is a bit misguided. It's starting to look like the terrible defense from last year was a lack of coaching, pure and simple, and they could actually be a very good set of defenders if they keep this up. We've yet to see them against top tier guard duos but I'm actually looking forward to the matchup now. I'd love to see them capable of going toe-to-toe with the likes of Lillard/McCollum and making life real hard on them defensively. Offensively too for that matter.
Looking forward to today's game!! Thanks again DB! |
