Pre-season takeaways

[apc]

I was hoping for Smart improved % from 3...didn't happen (yet)

-starting 5 has great chemistry for the games we have seen
-bradley improved playmaking - definitely noticeable to me, passing much better
-horford will fit right in immediately
-I have yet to see Smart's improved 3, looks like the form is better, but his accuracy is still crap
-Rozier can score! he is ready to make the next leap
-Brown is improving from summer league, finishing better around the rim, can shoot open shots, can get to the rim, but his FT is worrying me.
-RJ vs Young who has to go? My vote is slightly giving and edge to Young staying, kinda wanna keep Bentil and Mickey, wonder what Danny will do to these 4
-I have no opinion of Zeller and Jerebko, they are what we always thought they would be

Starting 5 look good.

Rozier and Brown are real bright spots to get excited about, developmentally speaking.

Want to see more progress from Smart.

We need another big for the 2nd unit.

Good to have Gerald Green back in green.

RJ, Young, Bentil, DJax, etc on the 3rd unit--I don't see anything from any of them.

pre-season team looks good.  we got to cut 1 guy though.  hard choice but ultimately not a gamebreaker whether its Young or Hunter.

the very LAST thing Marcus Smart needed was an injury to start off the season and boom, he gets hit with a sprain in the last pre-season game.  Not very lucky.  Fortunately Rozier looks ready to step up big time.
