Im in a weird spot because I didn't like much of their offseason and think the roster has a lot of imbalance, but I still think they have a lot of potential to make a decent jump in their win total.

It was a fun exhibition match, glad the nbl team kept it close. Pelicans had to bench Fears as he was horrendous to the point of hurting the team.

Melbournes chances of a shock win ended when he was benched

https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/1nz5hre/richard_jefferson_seth_curry_and_thanasis/

Reason #16,000 Why Richard Jefferson is one of the biggest pieces of **** in NBA history. I legitimately **** hate this dude. Every time he opens his mouth he says something stupid.
As the person at the top comment mentions, Seth has earned his place in the league. He is without a doubt a super humble dude in a fantastic teammate and one of the best shooters that's ever played the game. This isn't a situation where steph kept him around at the end of the warriors bench for a decade just as buddy, or Lebron Manufacturing the Lakers into drafting his son.

@jb
I think Ace is who you wish Brandon Miller was. Just watched the highlights. So many mid range jumpers. Shot looked very pure. Almost everything I saw was catch and shoot. Which is good, that's his bread and butter. At least for now.

Exactly

His scoring a ability is so effortless. If he continues to improve that handle sky is the limit for that kid.

In addition to Ace, few other rookies had some pretty good games tonight. CMB with a good all around game. Clifford with 10 pts 9 assists

The convo feels like it is going to quickly shift to "Well yeah, Ace is the better prospect but Kon was the right fit". Dude had a really strong debut with 6 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block all while being ultra efficient shooting it from all over the floor.
