Around the NBA: 2014/15
Posted: Thu Oct 9, 2014 6:25 pm
It just doesn't feel right posting in the 2013/14 thread anymore. Preseason has started. We're talking about 14/15 now.
I'm always most interested in the rookies when I watch preseason. Who's showing the goods?
Jusuf Nurkic had 15 rebounds in 16 minutes last night. Didn't watch the game, but I did notice some smart positioning by Nurkic in the one play he was in in the highlights. Color me impressed.
You could see we lacked rim protection last night - Alex would definitely have helped in that area. Rim protection may be an area where Len has the advantage over Nurkic. But I was wondering on draft night if we would regret passing on the big fella. A rebound a minute. Nice.
