I dont know in how far Kyrie will buy into the Nets system, but that team is legit. They play disciplined on both sides of the court, move the ball really well and everyone on the team can shoot the 3.

Sounds about right. I'm telling you this guy gets a bunch of minor injuries all of the time. Rarely something serious but he gets nicked up every few games.

But any mention of previous injury issues for Kawhi or existing injuries for Paul George and you are being crazy :lol:

Not true. Kawhi will probably always be plagued with nagging injuries too, PG on the other hand is coming off 79 and 77 games played so I'm less worried about him

PG was injured the whole 2nd half of last year, just unlike Davis and KL he played through it. Maybe if he takes a more conservative approach this year he can peak in the playoffs.

Kemba/Kanter became elite defenders and the rookies gained years of NBA experience overnight. Boston's problems are solved.

Fair enough. I agree in regards to conserving himself. If you look at his entire career PG has actually had like 3 seasons where he's in MVP mix up until January or Feb, then falls off a cliff. Either due to injuries or gassing out.

Good to see Levert balling out today. If he can make a significant improvement in his shooting, he can be an all star this year.

Dragan Bender has been putting up numbers. Nothing that really stands out but for his standards they do, I thought forsure he'd be out of the league this season.

I dunno what is happening in camp, but everything we've seen over the last few months indicates that NAW is the second best guard on the roster already.
