    if it makes a difference, they are regular long shorts that he rolls up.

    Just a fair warning for those who have never been...this is probably going to be an hour or more of hype and timeout entertainment followed by about half an hour of the team playing the most lackluster scrimmage game imaginable.

    U dont know basketball. Whats beneficial about dribbling for 5-7 seconds allowing the defense to get set? We have 2 playmakers now so holding the ball only hurts the offense. Thats what makes teams like GS so hard to defend, they move the ball on offense. Ur smarter than this

    WB doesnt really do that. He normally attacks quickly in early offense. If Harden does this it'll make it easier for teams to defend our shooters. The whole purpose of having CP3 is so Harden wont have do that. Harden needs to catch & shoot if open

    It usually not very well organized and for the few I been in the past, it was a waste of time. I'm definitely skipping this year's open practice.

    we until last year haven't been able to play like GSW NOT because of harden

    but because we ONLY have harden

    and now we have 2 playmakers against GSW's 5 playmakers (2 top 5, 1 top 10, 1 top 20, 1 top 50)

    The Fresh Prince plays pretty solid defense.

    Man if we get Road Ryno at home this season, 60+ wins is very attainable

    I think playing against a back up team with great defense day in and day out would definitely make our offense even better.

    Cmon now. The reason why GS is so good on offense is because they move the ball. They're superstars are products of the system they play under Steve Kerr. Steph, Draymond & Thompson weren't NEARLY the caliber players they were until they changed offenses are started moving the ball better. There is no reason for Harden to be playing with the ball this year. Also, our offense is NOT just James

    I hope Zhou makes the roster. He's like the Asian unicorn
