    i didn't watch the preseason so i don't know if it's normal, but our offense still looks like crap. still a bunch of wasted motion that leads to nothing. throwing it to yao out high so he can hand it off to a cutter going to the 3 point line and then posting yao up is stupid. just post yao up. swinging it around and giving it to tmac posting up 18 feet away is wasted time. just post tmac up.

    movement and cutting and such is only useful if you plan to get easy scores or jumpers out of it. using it to help set up post-ups that are available with 23 seconds left on the shotclock is just wasting time.

    and artest reaches too much.

    Can't allow easy jumpshots either. Perimeter defense is very weak.

    rudy and OJ are gonna be SCARY good in 3-4 yrs. those 2 can score. but they suck now.

    we just need to execute. stop jacking up 3s. artest with 2 unnecessary 3s.

    Hopefully this season, these gambling corrupt NBA refs will stop screwing Yao by not calling fouls for him, and calling phantom fouls on Yao.

    tmac post up/high post remains our most effective play b/c it gives us the most options

    our starters rarely played together during the pre-season so it seems we are going to use the first portion of the season to work the kinks out.. IMO i think out second squad runs our O better
