Starts tomorrow! basketball is back. I've heard the pundits haven't been kind, and are expecting regression (rather than respecting as an ascending true third seed).

Keegan's development will be interesting. Also I feel Duarte might be a sneaky pickup, and might be a pivotal bench piece.

Watch on YouTube


Mike Brown asked about tonight's game with starter minutes, and said 15-20 min.

Slawson is not ready to contribute.

Ford, Keon, Colby could all potentially compete for the third guard spot.

The spacing, ball movement, shot selection started off fantastic. Looks mid season form.

Sasha not in the 10 man rotation so far...

I was thinking, you have Davion/monk/duarte (who I like)/lyles/ Len or if Brown likes McGee, where is Sasha?

Brown was saying he was probably going with a 9 or 10 man rotation at best

Not a good sign man.

I was worried we were overpaying for his services and should have low expectations. But I'd like to be wrong.

Davion's shot looked great. Supposedly he was working a lot on his shot and using some sort of computer algorithm for data.

His effort as always top notch.

I think it was this video with Dave that covered the shot data.

I wanted him drafted, and then he took me to some low points where I've left him for dead. But the one thing you heard is that work ethic, hopefully it rounds out. He can still be a player
