We'll get this one tonight. Expect more mins for the regulars. Looking forward to the continued growth of Xavier Henry out there. And hopefully Wes Johnson can get going

Is JL the 3rd really their starting point guard going forward?

kaman is out, was hoping to see some more from the pau/kaman combo against a young duo like favors/kanter.

Williams guarding kanter is a terrible match up

Kanter will be such a beast in a year or two, such a complete center

^On offense. Favors will be a beast on defense with those long arms, if he can stay out of foul trouble.

Utah's got a good young core.

Nash cant be a starter this season... And the Nash and Blake starting lineup together wont work either IMO

Ok so not the best start....

I like what Shawne Williams gives us at that PF position on both ends of the court. But the issue with rebounding may force us to start both Kaman and Gasol or Jordan Hill and Pau together

The activity from Johnson and Henry is refreshing

wes johnson as PF is a no no

Such a terrible offensive quarter. Shows how important Kaman is gonna be for that unit

Everything Nash has shown this preseason leads me to think he's a SG like last year off the ball. He can't get by others, can't create, and is best served reading and reacting then using his 50 40 90 skills like uber Kerr, like last year.

There's no logic that says Farmar isn't the best pg on the team not named Kobe in terms of skills at creating off the dribble for themselves and others. Blake and Nash are just shooting guards, and they do the role batter than Meeks anyhow, when catch and shooting.

A little disappointed in Farmar that quarter, looked out of control.
