    Impressed by:

    Chase Budinger - Wow, that shot is sweet. He moves without the ball. He runs the floor. His defense didn't get exploited too much tonight either.

    Carl Landry - Breakout season imminent.

    Reserving opinion on:

    David Andersen - Showed the mistakes that most Euroleague players make, but you can tell he likes to shoot. I assume he'll be making a lot of those shots he missed tonight and not look so frantic once he gets used to it.

    Jermaine Taylor - Showed some scoring prowess, but like Andersen, made a lot of mistakes. I'd like to see him a bit more active without the ball.

    Worried about:

    Trevor Ariza - The two times he used his new spin move, he almost lost the ball and then he DID lose the ball the second time. He just doesn't seem to have a good handle on the ball as I remember, and his shooting seems to be off.

    Yeah..let's add another undersized player, 6'7", to our team. Please...the only reason he got so many rebounds is because he played againt our other undersized players. You people run your mouths way too soon. Its the first preseason game and you all already want to throw out David and that drafted the wrong players.

    Overall good signs. lowry's shot looks more fluid this year. landry's game has improved. still few times when we pushed the ball, we made a few careless TO's like couple of silly entery bounce passes . but they are things that will be corrected.

    Obviously, but I didn't notice anything extraordinarily better from them than last season. Not like Landry, which is why he is the only returning player I felt like mentioning.

    When you hear the name Tracy or Stacy you think female. I'm sure everyone can agree.

    I like Chase Budinger. He's going to be a great addition to our team. His shot looks sweet.

    the league should be worried george hill is due for a break out season probably getting as good a brooks now he looked impressive

    blair looked unstoppable

    the spurs should be about 10 to 12 deep this season

    budinger had a solid game but i dont really see him being no better than a younger brent barry IMO

    Stacy yes, although I know of an NHL player with the name. Tracy I actually think male first, as I've known more guy Tracy's than female ones...

    Not that it matters.
