    Francis looks better this game. He's actually penetrating right away instead of first trying to fake out his man three times.

    Bonzi and Scola gets the offense flowing. Francis and James do not.

    Our second unit looks pretty strong out there.

    Maverics shoot the 3pt better than us. I bet they can always do it like that.

    Even though people are saying this is the deepest team in recent memory, I just don't like the second team at all. Besides Bonzi, they're all pretty flawed.

    First team did great. As long as we have Yao, Tmac, and Shane on the floor we'll be a great defensive team.

    francis is not good when he has the balls more than 5 seconds. it's a turnover waiting to happen.

    Deke/Scola/Bonzi/James/Francis.

    How is that not a good second unit?

    Apparently this combination is much better and flexible than others

    Agree. Bonzi is doin' what he has to, just be agresive, good scorin' backup for T-Mac. Francis looks good + Mike James can hit it

    exactly. ppl say it was JVG and it was his scheme that helped made us great, but when u have 2 6'8 guys on the perimeter and a 7'6 guy down low, it's hard to score.

    Don't forget Hayes. He was a large component of our defense last year.

    Sorry to say but Francis is making this second unit worse. Adelman should try Head or Brooks in there

    OMG I am having Francis flashbacks :eek:

    We have a lot of talent on paper, but I still think our talent is overrated. Of course, it's still better than having no depth at all last season.
