    I have to disagree and not for the obvious reasons. He was silky smooth out there, and seemed liked a veteran who knows how to play under control and within the flow of an offense. He also showed a nice touch, ability to play as a floor general, and advanced offensive moves. It might not show up in the box score, but I was very impressed. I was also impressed with the potential of Queen. I was disappointed in Wooten and KM Jr.

    I saw a lot of really, really good things there. It looked like the (former) scrub unit is atleast capable to get shots and get something done.
    Cousins, wall looking good. Looks like being involved in the offense is good for shooting touch after all. I’ve said that all the time over the last years - when players move and get to touch the ball when the shotclock isn’t at 1.8 secs they shoot the ball way better.

    Exactly. Just nicer to watch. It wasn't ugly basketball.

    New GM? We've gotta get out there and give SOMEBODY a Kelvin Cato contract! Why not Caboclo. It fits the bills. One good preseason game. Tall. That's enough similarity. Max deal. Max years.

    This is like the game where we won when CP3 was here and Harden was out and the ball was moving and everyone was involved.

    I am glad I am not the only one. I was wondering if the Whisky was clouding my vision. Don't get me wrong, Grant is a very heady 4th guard option, but I would rather give those minutes to Jones because of the glimmer of potential I saw. Just as long as we cut Clemons. He was just about the only player tonight that showed no promise.

    I saw Wooten making plays including a 3 pointer if I'm not mistaken. He is #7 right? He was more effective defensively.

    Observations:

    Wall and Cousins looked good
    Great movement and participation by all players
    Bruno is going to win this year's 3-point contest during All-Star weekend and then go on to be named the League MVP :D

    Took one friggin game to see the Rockets have a coaching upgrade. MDA was an absolute embarrassment. I think we have a gem in Silas.

    We played that entire game at that pace and turned the ball over only 5 times
