    Just joined the game in the last 30 seconds…ha.

    Anyone care to give a brief summary of some good/bad things that happened in this game? Any positives to take from the first pre-season game or is it more "who cares, meaningless pre-season game."

    i'm really liking Jeff Adrian off the bench. He looks like good muscle off the bench. those 6 points 4th quarter kept us in the game.

    Despite the 3 hour game I enjoyed every minute of seeing the new guys. I wasn't impressed with Dwight, but whatever, it's preseason.

    Ish Smith is basically garbage, Powell is somehow worse than garbage, but Papa/Dmo/Adrien/Ariza/Johnson were bright spots. Dmo is looking better and better, Papa and Adrien are good hustle roleplayers, Johnson could take the backup pg position, and Ariza was basically just a replacement Parsons for cheap, which is exactly what we needed. Extremely happy with the backups, although Daniels/Canaan/Smith/Powell weren't great.

    2.Harden
    3.Ariza
    4.Jones/DMO
    5.Howard
    6.DMO/Jones
    7.Adrien
    8.Papa

    Ariza is looking solid and ready to play. He's really matured and is more of a heady player since his last stint with the Rockets.

    Now I hope they shoot a helluva lot more FTs in practice. That and keep posting up DMo.

    Tell that to the Pistons and Bulls game tonight. Brooks brought the bulls back to send it to overtime.

    81 Personal Fouls. According to Basketball Reference, there hasn't been a non OT regular season game with this many fouls since 85-86, which is as far back as their records go.

    we desperately need a backup pg...Dont think isn and cannon are viable options at all.

    Johnson might get some rookie chandler-esq playing time.
