Holy **** everyone it's preseason lmao. Overreactions are the worst. Go back and check contenders records in the pre-season over the years. Most go under .500. Trash teams have gone undefeated just to win 16 games. Pre-season literally doesn't mean anything.

Some of these takes are asinine. It’s preseason. Not only is the opposition not trying as hard, the coaches aren’t trying as hard to stop players.

Loved what I seen from him...That boy can shoot!

He definitely looked good scoring wise but his assist numbers are very low, does he not pass or is it just his teammates not making shots?

Incipio wrote:Zubac has been downright bad in every game against a nba team this preseason. Against the 3 nba team, he was -15, -21, and -28. Twice he was by far the worst on the team. To top it off, he's actually doing that in limited minutes.

He even got torched by Motiejunas and fouled out in one quarter. When I watched his media day interview and saw he still had the boyish, timid demeanor from his rookie season it let me know that he's still not ready.

get used to it, that's what zubac is... inconsistent. it doesnt matter if he has his new goatee trying to be more mature and tougher... that's not what he is. he's not some new tough guy, he's fooling no one; he's a little cream puff

The Bulls made the right decision to not force White to be the lead guard in his rookie season. That would be setting him up to fail. Let him get used to the speed of the game and get comfortable scoring before you task him with running the offense.

Ben Simmons (back) has been downgraded to out for Friday's preseason game against the Wizards, Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Lonzo is starting to look like the guy everyone was expecting him to be, always liked him.

BRK's got the guards to give a lot of teams fits on offense. Their defense is gonna be swiss cheese though

He’s 22 years old getting his first real consistent reps as a starter. Even if he stays at the level of last regular season that’s a major plus

It looks to me that Mavericks made incredible deal last season, not only KP but THJ too looks much better than vast majority of Knicks players.

Keep sleepin on the Raps

Raps are the masters of finding gems amongst undrafted players. This Davis kid already looks better than Danny Green.

DeMar hit a 3. Yes, it's true. I saw it with my own eyes!

How many times will the phrase "it's only preseason" be used in this thread on average?
