    I'm watching the Pistons game while waiting for Rockets game to start and idk what Pistons fans are smoking, saying Ausar is just as good as Amen.

    Ausar is a complete dud on offense, his dribbling is even worse than Amen. It's an instant turnover when he tries to run the offense. He's solid on defense but Amen is better there too.

    Also compared Duren and Mobley, Sengun is so much better. Mobley is so over-rated on defense.. he gets to roam around freely because he plays next to Jarett Allen, another good defender. Mobley is good on defense but he is not dpoy level good imo. Also he's offense is non-existant. Duren can score but he cannot pass at all.

    So Udoka will vary the starting lineup based on the opponent. I think this is a good strategy to start the season with.

    Might as well do all the lineup testing as much as possible before season starts. Although, I think DFS will be a big piece for us when he returns.

    Not a huge fan of the starting lineup changes. Just keep it consistent for now unless someone proves they don’t belong.

    Preseason is the perfect time to do it though.

    Houston broadcast of the game showed that. Switched it to NO and it’s working for me

    I think this Pelicans team has some interesting players. I don’t know if it adds up to being a good team, but they have some interesting pieces.
