    Yea I think our offense may be much better. Sucked that FVV got hurt but kinda hoping it turns into Reed breaking out and then this offense could be special especially if Jabari takes the step as well like it seems he may have. I’m exited. JD Davidson looking solid also

    JD was +17 in 17 minutes. Another solid outing.

    I hate that we won’t have him for the season opener. We could really use him against OKC.

    We need to see when DFS installed into our rotation because he’ll play heavy minutes and he is very good team defender which is not Tari and Okogi’s strength they’re great one on one but pretty slow on team defense. (Dillon was good team defender)

    People need to realize that Reeds hands are on crack and he’s damn pesky with deflections and steals. He is the next version of Stockton in the making with a cocaine Curry 3 point shot. Stockon was 6’1 and played 19 years in the NBA. Reed is 6’2. I think Reed is our future at PG. We have to let him start and grow right now.

    FVV was good for us but he was so slow. Reed is going to change the whole dynamic of our offense. and defense in his own ways.

    We knew our starters would look good, but DAMN--KD looks like a natural fit on this squad!

    Also, while it sucks to lose FVV, Reed looks like he's poised for a good season, and JD Davison has surprised the hell out of me in the two games I've seen him play (preseason notwithstanding).

    This was fun, and I think it's going to keep being fun!!

    He is for sure the second best player in Brons era. And by far the most efficient volume scorer the league has ever seen. Butit’s so different to compare him to 2018 Harden. KD is the ultimate ceiling raiser. If you have a good team adding him puts you over the top no question. Harden however might be the best floor raiser in the league. KD could not run an entire offense like prime Harden could. Harden could routinely carry scrubs to the playoffs and even get us to relatively high seeds. Adding KD to 2018 Harden woulda been a championship lock too bad he went the easy way out to go play for warriors.

    I agree to start him now. Just don’t throw around too crazy of expectations yet we don’t need him worried about becoming the next Stockton or Curry. Just focus on the game and get your confidence up and that will be easier surrounded by the starters.
    I do love his potential, but baby steps first lol. But a no brainer starter at PG at this point he fits that starting lineup nicely.

    It seems Jabari and Reed look more comfortable and confident when KD is on the court.
