OK if I'm understanding correctly tonight is preseason game 5 and tomorrow is preseason game 6. Soon they will be for real.

Correct.
Tonight will be played with the regular rotation, it sounds like (Naz is out though). Tomorrow will be the rest of the guys.

Encouraging so far, both Randle and Ant found Rudy. Rudy needs to make a few shots. Defense looked better.

We play not bad but still too many TO and lack of scoring except Ant and Randle… same issue we got all season last year.

This offense and these rotations are still hard to watch. Hopefully something clicks and makes things a lot smoother. We will win games based off talent alone. We could be a lot more though. And we probably should be.

I really think it's these younger teams that like to push the pace that give us the most fits.

What is the Randle, Ant, TSJ, Clark, DDV lineup try to accomplish? Looks bad on both ends.

A way to try to cover up poor roster construction

The announcers mentioned we were 2-0 against the Bulls last year both wins by double digits if I heard them right.

One of those was a 16-point win thanks to a +21 4th quarter.
The other was a 19-point win thanks to a +15 4th quarter.

Because the way Juzang is playing, it makes other guys who are playing ahead of him, that are " shooters " look bad when he is scorching the nets. Also, bones was their big free agent bring in at the end, instead of a legit backup point guard. Need to try to make him look good too. But not better than Rob.

Finch is killing me with this ****.
How many years now and boxing out is still non existent. Either get off your high horse and teach some crap you’ve been neglecting for years or hire some new bench coaches who will teach basic basketball fundamentals. My god
The fast breaks are horrid, the boxing out horrid, end of quarter sets horrid.

Tell me one NBA coach who uses practice time to
teach boxing out. This isn't junior high. If they haven't picked it up by now, they probably never will.
