Thompson and Waiters have really improved this summer. Love is out and LeBron has done next to nothing in terms of scoring but the offense has still been good behind Irving/Thompson/Waiters. Dallas looks pretty good as well. They have a variety of offensive weapons.

Jazz/Clippers feels like a damn good regular season game.

I dunno if anyone else saw this, but Andre Drummond got posterized by Aaron Gordon tonight. I was at the game. Drummond performed like hot garbage. I hope the hype you all set him up for is justified, because Monroe looked superior to Drummond tonight.

clippers were desperate for the win. Played regular season rotations. Jazz were down a sg with burks and hood out. I think Jazz are going to surprise a lot of people this year. Just watching their ball movement. Young core and all look to have elevated at once.

Maybe but pre season is never a good measuring stick.

I legitimately get more and more excited each game.

Utah barely lost tonight, while missing our second best scorer.

nd it didn't feel like a preseason game, it was a chippy preseason game. I lost count, but I think like, 4 or 5 technical were called, so things got personal, and it lead to very entertaining basketball.

This new style of basketball under Quin Snyder has really done wonders for everyone on this team.

Dirk looks lighter on his feet than last year, like he lost weight or something.

or maybe it's just an optical illusion because of the dark socks and dark shoes, making his feet look smaller?

either way he looks ready to go.

I really liked what I've seen from Mekel this preseason (and in his national team), I understand why Dallas doesn't really need him because they have at least 3 better players that can play the PG but I really hope he stays in the league, I believe in him.

runlikehell · Post #435 » by **runlikehell** » Sun Oct 19, 2014 1:33 am

Shabazz could be the Heat's best PG, he makes passes I've never seen Cole or Chalmers make.

God Mike Smtih is soo bad for the clipps play by play. He swears Blake is Karl Malone with dirks jumper. Lawler is legend tho

Yeah, I can't listen to that.
