Is it broadcast free legitimately anywhere? Can’t believe they don’t offer preseason free.
On nba tv and Bally
Gotta say I really like how we looked thru the starters minutes
Salaun is definitely in the rotation
That was an encouraging first game, lots to be excited about. Nice first game by TJ, Melo back in the rhythm, Gibson solid, Mann on fire and Miller not missing a beat.
Also loving the defence, very tight. We also have Grant, Mark and Cody to come back into the rotation.
So rookie looked ok?
I thought he looked better than advertised both ends
He looked better tonight than in summer league and then i didn’t think he was bad.
He probably looked better playing with better players though.
From what I saw, we have some decent depth for a change. Offense flowed well and the effort on the defensive end was nice to see.
I think it’s safe to say Lee definitely has reached these guys so far.
Missed the game, what’s the latest with Mark Williams? Any updates?
Couple thoughts.
-we actually look…kinda deep. At least compared to the days of old. Weird to see.
-still need another wing defender. I still would’ve traded for Okoro despite having Green. Having those sort of contracts are a huge NBA salary cap asset now. Would’ve given up Cody Martin and/or Micic with some 2nd round picks.
-Salaun’s jumper has always looked good. Just hasn’t always gone in. I suspect it’ll come and go, but at least it looks good from a mechanics standpoint. Edit: I saw a good bit of Salaun not knowing where to be (particularly on defense). But damnit, he sure hustles as he’s desperately trying to figure out where to be and what to do!
-Mann looks great. Even better than last year.
-Micic is still a sharp passer
-Big Taj has some gas left. I like the vet unit out there.
-huge deal missing mark Williams
And I fully expect from here on out that our Charles Lee coached team will go 8/11 from three in the 1st quarter every single game. If not, I’ll be calling for his head.
I thought Josh looked really good defensively. He can dog a lot of guys in the league such that they will not be an offensive option. Lamelo looked like he didn’t really care. And I really didn’t care about what Nick brought. Taj was so nice to see our there. If he can give 12 mins a night for the first dozen games of the season, what a win. Miller looked great as does Mann and I’m very intrigued by Salaun.
I may be there in person Tuesday for the heat preseason game. I was going to get floor seats, but I was emotionally gutted after Cody Martin was injured and will miss the game. He’s the only reason why I’d show up. So I may settle for nose bleeds if I can find the motivation to go sans Cody Martin
It’s like rbf in a teenager. This is Melo’s natural state of being unless it is fully about himself.
But it is also painfully obvious that having him on the court takes this team from bottom 5 in the league to a 7-10 seed.
What I love most about Lamelo is a toss up. Either his inspirational post game/media interviews or his “I’m gen z and would rather be not wearing ankle braces and in my go kart while tik toking” attitude.
Say what you want about Melo but he is a star. Its just natural ability thats got him this far now let Lee coach him up to be a winner, like he did Tatum & Brown
I think Lamelo in a small sample size of the first preseason game brought a lot more defensive effort and intensity and was moving his feet and in defensive stances.
I thought it looked like the “cared” more than before.
He definitely makes us go. His usage percentage this season might be a career high to this point judging by game 1
