I'm so excited for the season to start! I wish I could have seen that scrimmage. I want the season to start already!

SVG says Von Wafer has a very quick 1st step. ... Says Justin Harper is a PF, not a SF.

SVG after Orlando Magic team scrimmage said Dwight Howard dominated in the paint and made first 5 or 6 straight free throws.


Something for you guys to talk about

Wow... that's great news

Well, he could only be guarded by Davis or Anderson, so.......he better dominate, lol.

Ha @johngreenspan, yes! SVG also said they aren't double teaming Dwight yet thru camp and that he is just dominating in the paint.

I hope he doesn't leave.

Well if a trade was really close, Dwight probably wouldn't be practicing.......right?

I think if you put McGee back then, he would get those blocks just as easily as Russell did. Russell's athleticism was well ahead of the players of his time, and that's about it.

Right, but that could all change at any moment... they're still conducting business as usual until a decision is made.

Would not read into that. Guys get pulled minutes before a trade. Deal would need to be 95% done.

SVG said ball-handling was "sloppy," but defensive effort good in scrimmage. No set lineups yet, but expect to see Big Baby in starting 5.

I'm guessing Duhon was playing

Indeed. With the amount of work he puts in in the offseason, he could end up being the best player in the NBA by the end of the season. I hope he's on our team though. I'd hate to see another team reap the rewards.

I hope Glen left those clown antics in Boston.

J-Rich needs to kick rocks.....Too inconsistent and virtually brings nothing to the table that Redick can't emulate
