    fwiw: the original poster used the following punctuation --

    "some statement, like...non".

    Note the awesome control of the reader's cadence with the ellipsis inducing a slight pause. You guys using the "like, non" form or the even quicker "like non" either have little appreciation of the OP's subtle exactness,, or you have poor memory, like...non.

    np...we expect MVPs to have others do the early preseason games. Westbrook sat out, too.

    I used my own formatting because I didn't want to steal OP's style.

    I think Clutch is trying a new thing, he is allowing a lucky OP to become the official game thread person

    How much play-calling does Mike D'Antoni do? "None. They won't let me. I keep trying. They won't ever listen. Nah, we have sets. I'll call a play after a timeout, draw something up and see if we can get a shot or something like that. But them running down [and calling a play], we don't do it. We have reads. We just want to play with pace. If I'm interjecting myself into the game, it slows the game down. I don't want to do that. It'd be the worst thing I can do. … For the most part, I don't want them to think. I don't want to call plays. I just want them to play basketball."
