[RookieStar]

Unstoppable Franz...

Getting into the paint at will but would love to see bane getting going a it more. Specifically from 3.

[Last Guardian]

I mean Paolo upping his defense and Wendell upping his offense...thats the player development you like to see.

[thelead]

I'm good with Paolo upping his defense by taking a slight step back in usage.

[eyriq]

Paolo looks drastically improved on defense. Something clicked.

[Last Guardian]

Bane has some very good anticipation for contesting shots.

[Darth Magic]

I seriously cannot understand why our SL offense looks so clunky. Why are our 6'10" forwards constantly on the perimeter?

They look fine to me so far.

I'm just not a fan of how the SL offense looks. Maybe they don't want to show too much before the regular season starts but i really see no difference in how we play offense this year versus last.

[thelead]

Did you guys see that Jaden Ivey is out for a while after getting knee surgery today? Detroit can't catch a break.

[Darth Magic]

Bane has some very good anticipation for contesting shots.

I'm impressed by his defense so far.

[GameOver25]

Man has Paolo leveled up his playmaking? I like what I'm seeing from him so far with ball movement.

Don't forget that we're missing a ball of energy in that SL

It does visually look similar, but the guards are just a lot better so it also is just more efficient at the same style if that makes sense

[Rainwater]

I love Paolo off ball

[eyriq]

Slim looks good tonight

[thelead]

Interesting that we're not keeping one of Franz/Paolo/Bane on the court

[thelead]

JI is looking great tonight

[Rainwater]

The offense looks really good

[CalOrl11]

JI came to play

[Optimus_Steel]

We gonna be fun!
