Shamet and Green have to shake out of the scoring slump for us to have a chance

If Kleber can continue to shoot 35% + from 3 next season is contract is a steal for the Mavs.

Your guys' rebuild is locked and loaded.

I really thought they should have gone harder in acquiring Dwight. Don’t know what the deal with Noah was but he would have been a solid pickup as well.

Rumor was something was wrong with Noah’s knee. We need another big man Doc won’t play Zubac enough and Harrell can’t play inferior defense.

What's going on with Zupac?

Bad shooting night. Kawhi will get it going but what happened to Shamet?

Doc plays favoritism and even when Zubac plays better defense he will still play Harrell major minutes. Harrell is a great cog but Doc abuses his limitations like no other

The only way Leonard lays down is if Doc pulls him for the night. To be honest, without George, Beverly, and Lou playing, I am surprised Doc has left him in this long. What's the point?

Porzingis and Kleber together on defense has been fun to watch all preseason. Kleber was one of the most underrated players in the NBA last season.

Luka still needs to improve defensively, but his offense is going to be even better this year.

Refs tried hard for Clippers to comeback but nah...

TheNewEra · Post #1837 » by **TheNewEra** » Fri Oct 18, 2019 4:42 am

Zubac struggling on offense tonight he’s not reacting right to his touches. Up until this game he was having a strong preseason

Zubac has been downright bad in every game against a nba team this preseason. Against the 3 nba team, he was -15, -21, and -28. Twice he was by far the worst on the team. To top it off, he's actually doing that in limited minutes.

Look at the units he’s been playing with guys are not hitting shots. The team as a whole has struggled against nba teams and we have way to many guys in shooting slumps. The Nuggets game Doc put him out there with training camp guys after a strong start

KP and Maxi are going to be a top 3 defensive duo this year. They may struggle against the Drummonds but in terms of what teams look for in bigs (Switching, weakside help, mobility) they are about exactly what one wants on defense.

That KP deal is going to look so, so bad in hindsight. In 3-5 years people just getting into the NBA will be dumbfounded when reading about it.

How many times will the phrase "it's only preseason" be used in this thread on average?
