Or at least one post play for Love. I mean when the offense stalls a little. Go to the block.

I like the ball movement but I'm not sure about an offense where TT is the only player receiving a post pass.

Defense doesn't look great at all. No one on this team can contain penetration. Luckily the Hawks suck.

I don't like Wade & Rose on the court together for extended minutes. They looked great at the beginning of the game but Wade gets gassed pretty quick now.

Liking what I've seen so far from Love, Rose, and Crowder.

Not liking what I've seen from Wade, Shumpert, or Calderon.

Second unit needs either Rose or Wade.

Green and Calderon are as bad as I expected them to be.

Green had a couple of good plays and can kind of defend his position. I suspect RJ is in jeopardy. Cedi underwhelmed. He may need some time in the D League.

You think? I don't know, Green had a couple nice baskets, but I hate his game. Nothing is within the offense and he just plays reckless and takes poor shots. And I haven't been impressed by his defense either. He's not staying in front of his man and his positioning is always bad.

I may have jumped the gun thinking Cedi could be a rotational player this year (even before the Wade acquisition). He's nowhere close to ready.

Not a fan of the zero post-game offense. If the other team's center is going to go out on Frye, J. Green should really post his man up. Hopefully Zizic and/or Tavares get some run here.

He's a guy who had good games against us but it really was a waste of a roster spot.

Why do the Hawks have Schroeder out there against our third string?

I'm hoping that Perkins is only playing b/c Lue wants him cut.

Zizic must not be showing anything in practice its deflating not to see him out there right now.

Or Tavares. I really hope that Lue has RJ & Perkins out there to show the F.O. that they shouldn't take up roster spots.

Okay Cedi's showing some signs of being an NBA player.

Felder is embarrassing himself right now, i don't know what the cavs could possibly see in him.
