Finally a W and mostly an easy W.

With Beal and Allen out this was a good opportunity to see some Gillespie and I loved again what I watched from him.

KD and Book played unselfish basketball and didn't force anything. That was great to see it. KD 7/10 shooting and 6 assists and Book 6/13 with 9 assists.

Bol Bol and Richards got most of their points as a finishers and hopefully they can build some chemistry protecting the paint on defense. I like Richards motor, to me he is a keeper for next year.

The Pelicans without Zion are clearly a worse team but it's what they have to do with him. His health/condition is always a red flag.

The Wolves and Clippers lost their games so it was a good night for our Play-In hopes, next game with Edwards back is gonna be interesting.

Season has started today.


Not for our 'there's next season' mentality stars.

It'd be fun to be with same record as Kings for last game, but I doubt we'll be even close.

If Mr puddles aka Tom Leander believes , well I’m starting to believe too.

I thought we won't see Bol play at all this season and they'll get rid of him, but now it's more likely he's on the team next year than KD or Booker.


Can we fire Bud now and replace him with Bol? At least then Bol gets minutes consistently
