Hot take from this game: Dwayne Bacon is basically a rookie Marvin Williams. Probably will play stretch 4 when he bulks up over the next few years and hopefully he grows another inch or two.

Not to thrilled with our defense. Dallas has an abysmal defense so its hard to tell if we got better, but maybe this is the get right game the offense needed to go into the season

Starting to get worried about Dwight. Lots of turnovers and poor free throw shooting is a bad combination. He is still a dominant center that should contribute greatly to our success, but we won't go very far if he can't handle the ball. Last time he's had at least 7 turnovers.. 3/13/14.

Yea I’m concerned about his several brain farts per game being masked by his double-double per game stats.

Keep me on the bandwagon that hope Clifford split Dwight minutes with Zeller 24/24. I have no interest in seeing Dwight playing the bulk of the minutes at center, at least not over 28 minutes per game.

Ok i didn't saw the gamer or once, but come on, it's pleasant to have a guy in the paint that can scare the opponent guards from entering the paint !
Moreover it's also good to have a player that average almost 5 offensive boards per game.

Monk had the best +/- on the team last night +22.
