    Yup . definitely a large improvement on defense. It helps that the Spurs have like no shot creators now.

    Rockets really need an actual pg. Everything else looks solid. Gonna be a fun few years watching them grow into monsters hopefully.

    I just don’t know what his role is. Doesn’t look like there’s any real point guard play with the starters. Most of the time when KPJ has the ball he’s looking to score.

    Lots to like so far!
    Active defense leading to easy transition baskets. Good spacing and unselfish play.

    We have a lot of good defensive young players actually.

    I think KJ, Eason, Destiny all have amazing defensive potential.

    Jabari does too also but of course we're hoping we get more out of him than just stellar defense.

    I was using my iPad — I don’t think I have any ad blocker installed on it. Anyway, I’ll stick with the bootleg stream which seems to be working well.

    He worked so well with Alpy last season. If he can fit with Jabari too then you would have to think he is a chance of sticking.

    Balance and having enough dribble drive to put him on the court is the only issue

    I think he's overrated on defense also. I never got the infatuation with the guy as a first round pick.

    Eason is uber talented. I get excited about how good he can become. Smith, no surprises, I knew how good he is.
