    I mean what’s the alternative? Def not holiday or lesbian pg.

    I feel a big lineup instead.

    Defensively:

    Sengun (Playmaker 2)
    Durant (Playmaker 3)
    Jabari
    Amen (Playmaker 1)
    Sheppard

    Will be very interesting. Interested in Amen and Sengun's shooting progress. Amen's progress as a PG after some film sessions and more stable teammates. Jabari and Sheppard's jobs are very easy, just off ball shooters most of the time.

    100% going to be Reed since Ime literally didn’t try anything else for that guard spot. So we’ll just have to trust him I guess.

    Another easy win for the Rockets if Josh Okogie plays significant minutes.

    Pelicans are a fun matchup. We get to see the newly slimmed-down Zion (like, he looks like a different guy. Gone is the 284-lb truck) paired with Herbert Jones. This use to be a terrible matchup for us, but not with Durant out there. Jabari's newfound strength and hops will be on display too, and of course Amen and Tari will get better one-one opportunities with Durant taking up a wing defender.

    And we get to see Reed Sheppard and JD facing Jordan Poole and Jeremiah Fears. Can we just fast-forward the Holiday minutes, please?

    Did we always get this many pre-season games in the past? feels like pre-season has been longer than the past years.

    Also, is KD sitting today? Part of me wants him to rest, other part wants to see more of his chemistry with the team.

    nvm: it's just me
