It's going to be a hot contest between Okpala and Yurtseven for that forward spot

It's going to take Yurtseven some time to get use to the speed of the game. He'll be fine but everything is going way too fast for him now.

Yurt is slow, but he always seems to be in the right spot for a tip in or a jumper.

No body emerging from the grey slime in this developmental quarter. Can't say we have any diamonds in the rough going forward.

We really brought in a rookie free agent pg that already has to wear the huge Dragic leg brace.

Nothing like watching the backups try to give up a 21 point lead to another backup team in 1 quarter.

We saw what we needed to.

The regular guys are more than ready.

I hope that puts an end to any Struss/Yurseven/KZ as starters discussions. KZ is a mess. He has regressed every year.

Strus should be a rotation guy off the bench.

KZ and Yurt need Gleague time, maybe in a few months if they get into a strong groove they can eat up some minutes with the real team.

A backup PG is emerging as a big need, Garrett isn't ready either it seems.

Looks like Herro has got his three point shot and humper working, which is key to the rest of his game.

I just checked the box score. Seems Lowry had himself a good game aside from scoring. As always he does the little things such as assists/rebounds/steals and assuming taking charges. How has he been for you guys? Is he trying to "fit in" so the scoring is low? Is it a minutes thing? But he only took 4 shots which is kinda confusing as I didn't watch.

He did have 10 assists, though.

I imagine he is going to be on the passive side, especially early in the season. Miami needs him to be a facilitator/playmaker more than anything. I'd honestly be surprised if he averaged over 15ppg for Miami.
