Going to be interesting to see how Sabonis operates against Wemby if he gets the assignment. He can bully him down low but his length might be a problem scoring around the basket.

Well in one minute of play I can surely see VW as a truly unique NBA player.

You immediately see the Wemby effect, 6 of 11 FGAs have been from three. Spurs length in general is a problem but we need to find a way to get some easier looks.

They started very hot from the field, and we started cold. Not worried at all.

Well, I purchased LP for the first time (monthly), and this is the third time we are on national TV already. And guess what, just 1 more after this month. Lol, seems like I'm not the luckiest person out there.

Good recovery to send the first down just two. Keegan's defense this year has been so, so good.

Early on I give Wemby those deep 3's until he makes a few more.

JaVale is actually creative at times from the high post. As long as we have cutters and options out there for him, this may work out well this season.

Call me boomer but I hate seeing a player settling for a 3 pointer on fastbreaks and 2 on 1s.

Seeing Ellis and Duarte out there at times and some poor basketball decisions makes me want to fish for Caruso even more.

Shooting a 3 down 1 with 5 seconds left always grinds my gears

Bulls asking for multiple 1sts for Caruso. The trade market is broken.

As an Xer I've come to terms with it. Depends who is shooting the 3 and who the pass comes from. Like if Cousins had the ball in the paint I'd much rather he shoot.

And if Curry is open, well any time he shoots it is never a bad shot.

Thanks for that, makes it a pipe dream then.

Oh well.
