I notice that RW just stands on the perimeter when Lebron has the ball.


That’s a big Russ thing I’ve been wondering if we’re gonna fix. Been an achilles heel for his previous teams.

Wes was a good defender. Ellington is not.

I don’t think I’ll survive another season of this. Melo was open like three times. All bricks

Some of y’all are overreacting to the negatives in the 3rd preseason game. For one Melo shot well last game and y’all commenting on shooting like we’re 35 games into the season.

First half thoughts. Lakers look much more keyed in, on defense. Sometimes getting burnt overplaying, and getting back-doored/cut, or the offensive player taking advantage of poor defensive positioning to penetrate the defense, resulting in open shooters when help comes. That will be Vogel's job, to improve the team defense. He had the luxury of having a plethora of plus defenders. This team is the opposite of past teams. Lots of plus offensive players. But, so-so...at best...defensively.

The offense is, expectedly, a scrum. Lots of turnovers due to miscommunication, and unfamiliarity between the players. The ball moves around, while players stand around, ending with a one-on-one scenario. Vogel does not inspire confidence as a offensive tactician. So, while I do believe that the team will improve, the question is, "By how much?". One of Vogel's assistant coaches is going to have to instill some sort of offensive identity outside of LeBron/AD/Russ, if we're going to maximize this roster.

This is sure to be interesting to see how the early season goes.

Warriors added OPJ and Bjelica two guys I wanted in the offseason.... With the emergence of Poole and with Klay still coming back. They might be the team to beat in the West.

Gotta hire one first.

I give him 3 more seasons tops to figure out how to beat a zone, something most high school coaches know how to do.

They would probably lose but clearly and over reaction to another Preseason game because they would more than likely not even play in the 4th quarter
