    With everyone playing good, and the roster spot is scarce, I think a trade would be going on. Wafer and Harris played reasonably well in the minutes they get.. Francis is being saved by his reputation at the moment, he need to prove his worth in these pre-season

    Huh? Chris Paul and Aaron Brooks are not the same size.

    Pre-Draft measurements are the closest thing that exists to accurate in the NBA.

    Hopefully he can get cleared before the preseason ends. Still nice to see him out there on the bench cheering our guys on. Its only preseason, but you see Franchise jumping out his seat like its the Playoffs.

    I think the key thing there is weight and bench press. Chris Paul is far stronger than Aaron Brooks, which means he can absorb contact and still make shots. Brooks tries to squirm his way around contact and make shots, but he doesn't have the touch to finish those shots consistently.

    agreed looks like he got a better handle over the summer. Was dribbling up a storm a couple of posessions . . .

    I noticed that too. But he made quite a few bad passes or just plain lost control of the ball a few times.

    For every successful attempt to break down his man, there are three failures that make me want to pull my hair out.

    In other words, he looks exactly the same as last year if you ask me.

    I'm guessing DJ Strawberry will get at least 30 mins against the Celtics...he has barely played the first two games...even Tolliver, Green, Watkins and all those training camp fodder gets major minutes in the Spurs team...not like if they were the Thunder looking for actual players to fill in the roster...

    Let Yao rest...Don't take a chance on T-Macs knee either...Rafer can sit the bench too with his shooting

    Let Brent and Ron run the show...

    I get the feeling Brent and Ron are naturally adapted for the Adelman system...8 assists in 20 mins... thats nash-que stats
