    I don't need to see Nix, Usman, or Gary again.

    No point in wasting time.

    Okay. So we have to play KJ, Tari, and Tate. They all need to get at least 20 minutes. I think EG really has to go for them to get SF minutes. And I’ve been one that wants to keep EG around. But these guys all obviously have to play a lot

    as a Destiny only fan, Garuba is not playing badly hes just not playing as well as Bruno and also not as tall. Bruno has that 2nd string locked up.

    I'll fly my dog to Houston to crap on Nice Guy Steve's doorstep every day if he even thinks about giving Mathews meaningful minutes this season

    I'm very impressed with Green's defensive improvements.

    He still does get out-muscled, but the focus, positioning and the effort is there.

    Gary is too valuable to the tank.

    Favors is going to lock up that 3rd string. It's not looking good for Garuba.

    Big drop off when Nix comes into the game and slows down everything to come up empty handed and shies away from shooting the three. Needs more seasoning.

    This team is much improved and 3/5 starters are missing.

    Yeah I've noticed too. Rockets are improving. Get ready for more to start jumping back on the bandwagon.
