    Pretty good to watch. Tracy looks really awesome just like our all guards. Man really deep team. That's what I've been waitin' for. Yao also looks solid. Here we go! Ok see you guys

    Decently athletic, but no basketball skills were really showcased. And his giant head makes the rest of his body seem guard-sized.

    Maybe Morey really did see something in him. This makes the final cut even harder than I thought.

    Snyder, Butler, Lucas, Landry, Harris, Novak. I think Landry and Harris are the keepers here, since apart from athletic ability, Snyder really hasn't shown me much if any basketball IQ.

    Really dissapointed with scola. after the 2nd foul i thought he would start adjusting to the officiating. but in the 2nd half i thought he looked better. still active, but with less stupid fouls.

    Our 2nd unit could easily be a starting lineup. James and Francis attacking the basket will help us a lot. We FINALLY have a deep team.

    You don't judge a player over one game. You seldom change your habits over one day.

    he was decent, but he did carry the ball twice, and had bad passes. overal, he was good. francis did better than his last 2 preseason games, which is a good sign. i love how francis did an athletic move with the and 1, and the next possesion, mike james crosses over an puts up a floter with the and 1. it brings up, how competitive they are, imo. :cool:

    I don't know if they can make up a starting lineup, but I do know that we only needed 1/2 more impact players last year to get past the first round, now we have 4-5 to spare on the bench. Also Yao and T-mac seems like they are completely healthy again.

    Much to look forward to. Next in line is a warm welcoming for Durant and the Sonics.
