    Andersons defense and box out skills are pretty pathetic.

    Some beautiful offense ... The sharpness in passing will come , these guys aren't in season form yet ... But still so much is open so much movement ... I love James playing quick off the catch ( mchale for all his faults has that right )

    James will get back into the flow of hitting spot up threes .

    Defense looks OK too . I generally don't like switching Capela off of gasol , but if you come with a quick double and rotate properly then you can probably create a TO .

    Looks good so far and that's with some bricked shots and a turnover or two caused by passes that will be sharper once everyone is in form.

    And he really needs someone to help him learn how to follow the flight of the ball. He only gets a rebound if it hits the ground first right by him. He needs to follow the balls trajectory and learn to time his jump. Would up his rebounds by 2-3 per game.

    I do like the strategy of Anderson crashing the boards on offense.

    Not like they're missing him defensively early in the possession anyway.

    would Harden go under 4 TO per game with Paul around? Not so sure anymore...
    My secret little hope for the season is to make under 13 TO in a game.

    Very good post! I thought I was the only one noticing that. It's a delay reaction. All that says to me is he's lazy as well. Go get the ball if you want it.

    Capela looks tired and confused unfortunately. Hope he wakes up and catches a second wind.

    We really struggle offensively when teams overplay the 3pt line.

    We need to get on track. I know it's preseason and early in the game, but we need a 20 plus point win. We can't let the Griz play us like this.
