    Jordan Hill looks like he's finally ready to become a solid player in this league.

    This game also helped confirmed to me what I saw in Morris when we drafted him, that he's the real deal as well and both those guys should show very nice improvement throughout the year.

    And with the addition of Sammy D our Center position is no longer laughable. Nice to see Hill working those boards like a man, his post game is coming along too.

    Caught the last part of the 4th and seen some highlights. Hill, Morris, and T-Will looked impressive tonight. Adding Dalembert is big. I'm ready for this season to get underway.

    Ummmm... Dragic shot over 50% from 3pt range as a rocket last season... so you may want to look somewhere else for the worst shooting pg in the league.

    Of course he looked lost, the guy has only been practicing with the team for a few days. FFS people. Take a look at Morris' first game, he was horrible.

    Everyone has bad games, we all know this. If you are not going to contribute offensively at least help out on the defensive end. He took a good charge but that was all that I saw. Although Adrien did not do much on the score board he still blocked a shot and changed some shots too.

    I have watched Parsons for a while now and I am just not impressed with his game.

    Well that's fine. I just assumed this was a knee jerk reaction

    I really liked what I saw from Adrien in his limited minutes. Parsons also looks like a well-rounded player who with a little more strength can be a solid NBA player.

    If T-Will and Hill can back up the 3 and 5 properly, I think we can get up to 6th-7th seed.

    I think we would have a really good chance in a 7 games series against the likes of Spurs, Blazers and Denver.

    Thats because "impressive" isnt part of his game. His niche is versatility and the ability to facilitate. If you really watched him at Florida then you know what I mean. He is a Lamar Odom type of player, not a Dominique Wilkens human highlight reel.

    Too many players too short of a rotation.

    Yeah, could be a problem but with this compressed schedule, depth will be in our favor in comparison to a team that has a weak bench and has to rely on 3 starters for bulk of the offense and defense load like the Lakers.

    I don't like his game. We can debate on what impresses you or what impresses me but I am just not a fan of his game no matter how you slice it. To me his game is nothing like Lamar Odom. I did watch him in Florida and he is not a facilitator he is a decent shooter IMO. No need to split hairs here bro, let his game do the talking!

    The compressed schedule will force every team to use their 8-12 guys much more than normal. This is a GOOD thing for us.
