A lot of you guys will change your mind about Ulis, he's a stud. Not worried about him. He's a solid back-up point guard.

Ulis will be fine. He's only been playing again for a little bit. He's a smart and crafty player.

At the half...

Warren with 13 pts, 3 rebs on 6-10 shooting
Booker with 10 pts, 4 ast on 3-8 shooting
Jackson with 12 pts, 2 rebs, 1 stl, 1 blk on 4-7 shooting
Bledsoe with 7 pts, 3 rebs, 3 ast, 1 stl, 1 blk on 3-4 shooting

Nobody else really did anything.

Jackson is looking agreesive, I like what I see. Booker, Criss, Bender, Chandler and Ulis all look terrible. It's going to be a long season. I'm assuming we will see a less productive season from Booker.

So can we officially stop pretending Ulis is a starting PG now? He'll be a quality backup for sure but I think that's his ceiling. Which is still great for a second round pick.

Bender is still one of the youngest players in the league. He'll figure it out. Gotta give him till the end of the rookie contract to be fair.

Lol all everyone turning on these guys after the first half of the first pre-season game. Ulis will be fine, book as well. Chriss and Bender still need 2-3 years

I don't think any conclusions should be reached based on one half of preseason basketball.

Trying really hard to not be reactionary but man does this team look like hot garbage. It's time to move on from head mentor Watson and find a real head coach.

Derrick Jones Jr has always been eh to me.. not a fan of him getting good minutes off the bench.

We really need a 4/5. This draft has a few options there. Tank with Watson, get a top 3 pick, draft a 4/5, then find a real coach.

I agree but you can defiantly tell who put in work this offseason and who didn't. Someone looks out of shape and not interested in playing on either end of the court.

We need less Bender at C and more Chriss at C (with Jackson at SF and Warren at PF).
