AB showing off the handle a lot more than he did all of last year

[thelead]

I really like Goga, man.

WCJ, KCP, Jett, and 1st should be able to get us a legit disgruntled PG.

AB showing off the handle a lot more than he did all of last year

Against third stringers and G-Leaguers though.

[Optimus_Steel]

Goga with the 3?

[KillMonger]

Jett already doing more than gary

[Bensational]

CoJo seems to have the feel for Jett. Hit him immediately off some curls for some good looks for Jett. He hasn’t been able to get open with AB.

bit disingenuous, they ran an action for jett so of course he'll get the ball

[Knightro]

If they're committed to using Black in this SG/SF role, which I'm very much in favor of, then I'd be fine with eliminating Gary from the rotation and inserting TDS as Franz's backup.

[Last Guardian]

Goga is always really solid every time he plays. Surprised he came back to this team. He should be getting a consistent role.

[KillMonger]

take Da silva out but leave Houstan in?

[SOUL]

If they're committed to using Black in this SG/SF role, which I'm very much in favor of, then I'd be fine with eliminating Gary from the rotation and inserting TDS as Franz's backup.

I feel like this will be a transition that happens over the course of the season, assuming Gary isn't a flamethrower and TDS plays solid.

[KillMonger]

it's against the deep bench but why does goga seem to have more activity than dell?

They’d done the same for Jett with AB but the action either came a lot later and he got caught or AB didn’t push the ball up to him that early in the clock.

I’m not complaining fwiw. Just observing.

[Knightro]

Because he's more active than Dell?

I generally think Wendell is a good player - better than a lot of other people on this board think - and he's on a great contract still, but one of the bigger "leave you wanting more" guys on the roster.

[FFBlitzace]

I sure am glad that relevant players like Queen and Joseph are deciding this game for us.

i'd bet my house this won't be the case

C'mon now. It's preseason.

"by committee" offense

[thelead]

this NOLA play-by-play guys is so extra and obnoxious
