Head coach Tyronn Lue has revealed that guard George Hill, forward Kevin Love, and guard Kyle Korver won't play in Saturday's preseason game against the Boston Celtics.

No Hill, Love or Korver, no Kyrie and Hayward. So we don't get a legit dress rehearsal half for the starting 5 before the opener. Instead we get the final tryouts for the last few roster spots tonight.

Nothing new for CBS, if GH and Ky played it would have been a few mins away. This is usually the deep bench game every season. Get to see more Rob, hopefully.

Let Robert Williams run wild!

One thing I am looking forward to watching with regard to Williams is his quick jump ability.  Thinking about 20yo defensive 6'10" guys -- comparing Perk and Williams it's a stark difference in terms of the need to gather and leap (Perk) v. just leap (Rob).  Hope he continues to show well in the final pre-season game.  Maybe translates into some early season minutes.

Yeah, no gather just up. Reggie Lewis had that, he'd just pop up even off the dribble.... Quick ups are a major advantage for an NBA player.

I really hope we make a better showing of tonight's game than the last 3.

So far this preseason, we've stunk.
My biases, in order of fervor:
Pro:
Smart, Brown, Hayward, Tatum, Kemba, Grant Williams, Sleepy Williams, Edwards!

Anti:
Kanter, Semi, Theis, Poierier

Was Sexton a shooter in college? His shot looks good thus far.

Ugh, enough ball-hogging, Rozier! You dribbled the entire time and didn't pass once before shooting!

he's doing a Kyrie impression. He's not good enough to do that yet.

We're getting good looks, so it's fine.  But Tatum's been way off in preseason.

8 shots already for Rozier. I'm really hoping this isn't contract year Terry coming out.
