I saw Chet vs. Wemby and both played great. I hope Chet plays.

Killian is starting. So no more reading into Monty’s preseason lineups, okay guys?

Cade & Duren both out with injuries sucks as they are the two guys (along with Ausar as well) that I'm most excited to watch in a preseason game.

Killian looking solid to start this one, Burks has been awful so far this preseason.

Ok I am done, I deserve better than watch this **** team that's on the floor. Back to back to back TOs and Killian Hayes as our 1st option is something I can't stomach, even for a pre season game.

Quad tendinitis is normally caused by "repeated and prolonged stress on tendon"...

You have to wonder if he is doing repetitive training movements getting geared up for this season and now is starting out the pre-season with some pain yet again. You'd hate to have this be a thing that keeps him out the start of the regular season after missing so much of last year.

Killian is looking way more confidant in his handles to start this season.

He's starting because guys are sitting. Monty doesn't see Ivey as a point guard. Makes sense.

I think you're reading into things a bit much. He's sitting this one out because he's sitting this one out.

Marvin Bagley still sucks on defense.

Ivey still incredibly quick to the basket, but also still struggling to finish a bit once getting there.

I know its just preseason but man we're bad. I am not sure if SGA plays the 2nd half but the only reason we made it close against PHO was because their big 3 barely played. They could have also rolled us by a bunch if they wanted to.

We have such a long ways to go to get to being a "slightly below average" team that wins 35-40 games a year.... i was feeling decent about a chances of winning 30-32 games this year but right now we just look so far behind the competition I feel like I might have over estimated where we will end up at the end of the year.

Man I can’t stand Alex Bucks.
I swear his defense was responsible for most of their 2nd quarter baskets.
It’s like he is trying to help them score.
