Wrap him in bubble wrap, and make sure he has the new NFL Authorized, helmet on, and send him out there.

Need to ramp up the minutes for the starters. Only one more game after this until we smash the Clippers On opening night.

We need to see Caruso out there with the starters. Defensively he's our best pg and aside from cook he's our best 3pt shooting pg. I think being down on Caruso not steamrolling through the preseason as a playmaker would be like getting mad at Derek Fisher for not carrying the team when Kobe missed a game. That's just not who he is. To me he's a Patrick Beverly or Dfish with better offense.

With this roster the offense must run through Lebron and AD. Despite AD scoring a ton when he's out there, I dont think we feature him enough. I need to see him operate at a high percentage with those iso perimeter moves he drilled all summer with Jrue Holiday. If Davis can't dominate the game on offense a la Dirk Nowitski style, I dont think we stand a chance to close out a big game in the playoffs. At least not with this roster construction.

I agree. I’m not giving up on Caruso because he’s struggled a little in preseason. Give him a real chance to succeed or fail with the starters this season. Moreover, we know what Rondo is already, and he’s a poor fit with Lebron. Even with the poor shooting, I still trust Caruso’s defense over all other options at PG.

Side note, I really miss Lonzo.

Clippers will be ready on opening day. LeBron better be ready to face Kawhi one on one. And our bigs have to be ready for their bigs.

Awful preseason game choices. GSW three time. They have no bigs. McGee and Coward have another thing coming when we face the clits.

LeBron is an incredible passer. That one to Green was filthy. He should average 10 assists this year.

Give it a rest! Caruso is likely 3rd on the depth chart where he belongs. He's neither the best PG defender nor the best 3 point shooting PG on the team. It boggles my mind why people continue to use stats from 1/3 of a season to make the assertions you've made.

Dudley threw off our whole rhythm, but we closed strong...
I just get lost watching AD play... It's just such a different game with him on the court.

1- LeBron's incredible, still.
2- Cook. Guy needs minutes. We need dudes with uber confidence like him.
3- Not going to lie: I burned Dwight Howard's jersey. The only time I've ever done such a thing. I'm pulling for him.
