Sheesh.. Can we talk about Westbrook and Harden's first game together yesterday? Brodie looks really smooth in transition it's going to be a breath of fresh air seeing the pace get pushed. Speaking of breath of fresh air.. Capela must feel really great about his future easily inflated statline coming this year just off transition alone. Oh and Mclemore looks like our new 7th/8th man.
Yeah there was a game, but it was in Japan. China is afraid of Japan, but pretends not to be. So they just ignore them. Hence no discussion of the game....
Thread stickied at the top of the forum, dawg. And it was a 5am game that most people probably didn't watch or have yet to watch.
I woke up and while having coffee saw the game had just ended. Can't wait till the team returns from Asia and back to normalcy.
defense and rebounding were looking mad sus...Toronto got to the rim so easily...it was looking like pre-game layup lines at times a faster pace wasn’t just a cliche talking point, they’ve been looking to get out on the break and get into their sets faster...more passes are being made each possession...this is preseason tho, we’ll see if they revert back to bad habits Harden is locked in...looking like he could average 32, 6, and 9 this season with ease Russ looked rusty with his handle, and he made some weak passes that resulted in turnovers...he needs more time to shake off the rust and get acclimated with his teammates...his 3 point shot, especially off the dribble, looks broke AF 6 threes? Nah son, please cut that out. Sefalosha was a good pickup. Clark continues to never impress me. Clemens has supreme confidence, but I don’t see MDA giving him any regular PT once the season starts. We still need help in the frontcourt. We need some length. We need height. We need to get it from someone who isn’t like 35 too. If Capela goes down, RIP to our defensive rebounding. side note: I really like Siakam. He’s the only reason I’ll be paying any attention whatsoever to Toronto this season. Keep balling Pascal.
With all the China garbage , actual Basketball fell to the end of the second page …. I've yet to watch that game , have it on DVR , probably watch it tomorrow. Anyone change their opinion on the trade ? Feel better or worse about the season ? Chuck Fina.
