other than Williams looking like a really solid pick by Danny, this preseason has looked pretty horrid.
Good summary, but I’ll take it.  Vets will round into form.  Williams was always the big question.  Now he looks like he could be a real contrbutor off the bench. Love his energy, shot-blocking abilitiy, passing and rebounding. Biggest game of his young career!

I need to see some cohesion in the first unit next game, please. Including on defense.


Williams can move his feet well, I like him on D and rebounding.

The flow of the game is terrible, the refs have taken the game over.

I just wrote to the league office about this new reffing policy.
Larry Bird was Greater than you think.

I could not watch the game, but with 3 fouls in 9 minutes I assume he went after some head fakes.

There was some of that.  Easily fixable.

Most interesting, he seems to have a good feel for the game.

Semi needs to be released.  He's actually gotten worse.  Go the Hunter and Young route and just cut loose as a bad pick.  Even his D sucks now.  Highly disappointed in him.  After watching his workout vids over the summer with Hanlen, I really expected more and I don't care that this is preseason.  If he plays like a scrub now what's gonna change in a few weeks?

Cut him, sign Jamal Crawford

Cut Wanamaker, bench Semi for Williams if he keeps shooting like that
Outside of Lemon, Yabu and Williams really not much to see this game

We don't need to cut him to pick up Crawford do we? I'd rather wait and see what happens with the Jabari Bird situation before doing something like that

Doubt Crawford is gonna just sit around and wait on this.

Sounds like there is a sense of coasting etc in the lockeroom. Need to stamp that out early or they are in for a rude awakening. Can’t win like that.

In one year we've morphed from "gritty overachievers" to playing like a team that just won 3 straight championships and is coasting through a 52-30 season because they expect to turn it on in the playoffs.
