Game one is just a few days away. The first time we will get a look at the wolves and their new style on the floor. I hope I can find the game live somewhere.

Thanks for the info, I thought it wouldn't be so I was planning on going. I still may go but now maybe I should hold out for one of the games that isn't televised.

So every pre-season game may be televised? Has that ever happened? Wow, thought we might get 1 or 2 games total on tv.

So top to bottom, we might be the smallest team in the league. Are you guys worried about that?

Small ball means trouble rebounding and trouble guarding the paint. Small ball is a bad idea. That said, having a real coach instead of Ryan F****** Saunders will make it better, but it is a problem. That said, we added 3 guys known for their defense (Beverly, Prince, and Bolmaro,) which does address our defensive weakness. We also cut some dead weight in Juancho, Culver, and Rubio, all of whom were awful defenders. All in all we did what we could do short of adding more size.

I think that should concern us. Nothing to panic over, but be aware of it and do the best we can with what we got.

I like the way you think. I personally have the final score as googolplex to 0.

We have decent G, SG, SF size. PF is an issue but hopefully against only a handful of teams. So yes, I am concerned a bit.

My guess is we either get bigger with Simmons or we make a deal by the deadline moving Okogie, Layman, plus, for a decent PF.
