    Daryl Morey:
    -Got a lot of good young players. They'll be up and down and vets will be consistent.

    -J.Hill most impressive. One of the best in camp.

    -Terrence up and down in this game. Been good in camp. Elite rebounder. Need him to defend. Use his athleticism and passing vision. Make the easy pass. Dont go for the home run.

    -Loves when Dragic presses in transition. With him and Kyle, we have two of the best push guards in the league.

    -Terrence is best athlete on the team, well 2nd behind Blakely who likely wont get minutes tonight. Been awhile since T-Will has played NBA minutes. Been good in TC. Getting comfortable out there. He probably plays more pickup ball than anyone on our team.

    -The score should be irrelevant but impossible for me.

    -We need Terrence to drive.

    -We need Hasheem to be big.

    -McHale putting together film for the guys to look at.

    -Are we going to get a center? Seen a lot of good big men out there tonight. We're always trying to upgrade the team.(Sounds like they're going with what they got. No Dalembert, etc.)

    -We got Jordan and Patrick and quality minutes from the other guys.

    -Turnover differential not in our favor. Too many jumpshots.

    -Flynn is someone who has potential. May have been pressing too much tonight. Great passer. Need more push in transition.

    -Jordan has been a bright spot. Maybe number 1 guy we needed to step up and he has. He's been working hard.

    -Terrence gotta attack the hoop. Pull up in transition not good.

    -McHale will go with the young guys and get them close game experience.

    -We need harder cuts out of the offense.

    -Goran is athletic so he can step around the defender. Also very long. Underrated defensively.

    -Not too long for Patterson.

    -Guys a little tired here. That's why Smith is out there.

    -Greg Smith youngest player in camp. High recruit. Left school early. A lot of potential. Huge hands. Someone who has a chance to make it and help us somewhere down the road. I would expect if he makes the roster, he'll get time with the Vipers.

    Seeing Hill playing better makes me more willing to get Dalembert. If both young C's sucked it wouldn't make a difference but now it looks worth getting a solid defensive vet.

    Thabeet just looks lost out there...

    Something about Greg Smith that intrigues me. Hopefully we keep him and develop him. He could be a pleasant surprise.

    TWill has played better in the second half. He just needs to calm his game down.
