Well, well, well, isn't this exciting!

Obviously not expecting the starters to get a lot of burn here, but unlike years past the Wizards actually a have group of young guys I'm looking forward to see competing against NBA competition.

Our rook, Robinson, Thomas, and seeing what Oubre's accomplished over the summer, should be interesting.

I'm not going to let the looming Howard disaster distract from the excitement of finally getting to see this team play again.

No Howard, no interest. Let's hope this back injury thing isn't chronic.

Watching for 3 things

1. Small ball
2. Troy Brown a legit part of rotation
3. Sato usage

Getting a Keef upgrade should be a Top-Priority, he is a throwback sloth-like player

:lol: Knicks defensive strategy: help off of Keef no matter what.

Wizards offense: Keef bricks 5 straight wide open 3s.

It’s early, but what happened to trying Otto at Center and other supposedly outside-the-box things the coach Brooks has in the works?

That bench actually looks pretty solid. A lot of unselfish team first players mixed together

Sato only played 3 minutes or so in the 1st quarter, but he looked really impressive - playing with confidence and aggression. Mitchell Robinson on the Knicks... that is an impressive athlete who showed some transition game skills and good hands - just first impressions - but they got a steal.

Mitchell Robinson, the Knicks got a foundational piece with the the 36th pick.
