    Cousins will get those scores against contact probably as time goes by. He just needs to keep up his aggressiveness. We'll definitely see a ton of missed contact layups but he'll get there.

    John Wall’s off-ball game stinks.

    Stands by halfcourt like James does

    At peak this team can potentially be like last season Miami. It will take Wood to play very good defense.

    Its amazing what young hunger can do for defensive lateral speed and shot contests. Harden was absolutely an MVP and good post defender but lazy as hell outside and it blew up rotations and made the game harder and let the other team always get their rhythm. The 2018 team was able to counterbalance that with Ariza, younger Tuck, Moute, Paul and Capela. But its nice to see that again even if our offense is way less reliable.

    Loved the backcut by Tate and pass from Cousins. Loved the off-the-ball screen by Cousins on a defender near Gordon which made Gordon's shot ALOT cleaner. PLEASE more off-the-ball screens.

    I’m getting close to think that Tate is the second most exciting prospect on this team.

    With a three point shot he’s a better Trevor Ariza. Shorter but not as much relative to today’s NBA. Better cause to me he has a better handle. He was basically the PG those two games against the Spurs.

    getting a real good handle and he couldn’t be really good. That’s unlikely but when you then add in his defense. He factors into winning.
