Its finally here!

Let's start this thing off with a win against the Leonard and Parkerless Spurs!

Parker is the third best PG on that team now. Dejounte Murray is the best PG on the team now. 6'5" incredibly athletic. A defensive monster for both steals and blocks with 19 steals and 8 blocks over his last nine games. Problem with Murray is he can't shoot straight.
If he gets that fixed he is a potential all star. Very big IF of course.

When Popovich retires they should just make the coach of the year award the Popovich Award. I don't know how they do it. I never want to play San Antonio no matter who is missing.

Maybe featuring Taj a little too much...

Defense has been bad, Teague has been particularly awful.

Gibson is at his best when he is not featured. Even then, small spurts and tends to fade in the second half.

That short preseason schedule probably hurts us early. No flow at all.

I prefer Rubio over Teague for this team, but he (Rubio) isn't exactly making history for the PG-starved Utah team tonight.

I have to try hard to put away my anti-Teague bias, but man, I just don't understand what we saw there.

He's an older, shorter Wiggins, without the athleticism

Crawford has passed more in the preseason and tonight than he has in years.

I think he's been forced to change his game because he's lost enough quickness that he appears to have trouble getting shots off in any kind of traffic.
