I really think Teodosic should start instead of Rivers or Beverly. I think it is a mistake to pair Williams with Teodosic because they are both subpar defenders

So Doc really is going with the nepotism plan, then. Just another reason to #FireDoc.

Feels weird that the first game, albeit preseason, is on the first day of October, but excited nonetheless.

Want to see how Milos/Lou do off the bench. Hope that Doc finally learns to stagger DJ/Blake as well.

I don't think it is a mistake , previous Teodosic coaches discovered that he is doing better of the bench , some say that he likes to studies opponents defense first. Man, I mean guy never played NBA game before, what do you expect , to start him right away? First he needs to prove himself, here he is nobody but Teo is mature person , good thing is that he is aware of that too. These days Doc was constantly repeating that they have 4 guards now , 4 ball-handlers and that they can combine them anyhow. Precisely because of that, games like these exist, to combine everything, experiment, to try to find right combos . I agree with Doc , Teo should start slow and low he should get 20 min max .

You can watch it via stream like me. Nowadays internet streams are pretty smooth and clear.

Raptors fan from Europe here, no trolling.. but i cannot **** believe Austin Rivers is starting instead of Teodosic lol

Blake's soft touch on his passes are missing.

Milos with a nice pass though.

I do love how our front court works thus far though.

Can we start a Milos 4 RoY campaign though.

Good sign seeing Jamil get early burn, think he'll spend a good amount of time with us.

Wes still sucks.

I was wrong about Milos -- he's going to give us all of the playmaking we used to get from CP3 but without being a lockeroom cancer; he should start in place of Austin.

These guys look like they're having fun out there -- can't remember the last time this team was this fun to watch.

Celtics fan that come in peace ... I m from europe and Big Teodosic supporter. It was a great signing for the LAC. He looks a bit offshape that is pretty scary bc for his 1st nba ( pre season thought ) game he doing way above avr with 5 ast and 2 stl in the 1st Q.

Its not a big downgrad to CP3 ballhandling and court vision wise you will see that after 3 game you will go from blasphemy to that european guy was not wrong.

His D is also above avr - I offen see people talking that he is a bad defender - no he his D is not like Pat Bev but its way above avr- he is not the kind of D that its like glue on top of his opp but he have great positioning.

Imho he should start bc he need to be on court with DAJ and Griffin to take the best of his skills.

going to keep watching the game. Once again congrats on your signing

PS its 3:50 am here in my country and i go to work tomorrow @ 8:30 i know i m crazy but wouldnt miss it for the world his 1st min in the nba. And its not trolling but why why A.Rivers is starting ? IDK

His D is average at best friend, and I've watched a ton of Milos being a fellow (partial) Sjrb. Austin is starting for different reasons depending on who you ask, however, I prefer Milos running the second unit. Just wish Wes wasn't a part of it.

Which new Clipper are you most looking forward to watching?
