    #4: I'm glad he didn't whack Lillard, but doesn't look like Leonard has learned too much about positioning and which way his body should be facing.

    38mpg? I hope not. Isn't that what he played last year? I know you want your best players on the floor, but with the amount of guards we have I really hope his mpg average comes down to 35mpg MAX, and perhaps as low as 33mpg.

    Ideally I would take him out with two minutes left in the 1st/3rd and put him back in with 8 left in the 2nd/4th. That would come out to 36 per game. Maybe with a few blow outs (Winning or losing end) that number comes down. Of course any OT's would bump it back up........

    Where are you getting 38 from? He said nothing about playing that many minutes. He said he would play less.

    Aren't you at the game? He averaged 38+ but averaging 38 means you had 40 on a few nights. He certainly didn't average 40.

    Can tell you in advance. Defense will be better this yr. Working hard on it so far. A lot of energy at practice

    I mis-heard. Around 1:53 he says "I probably won't be playing 38 minutes...". First time I listened I just heard "I'll probably be playing 38m..."

    No, he'll point out that it was Rice that said it.

    It's Batum's face (or rather, his disembodied head) that makes this picture:
