    To me Aldridge looked quicker into his shots--no time for the defense to react. Also, looks like Will has worked on his handles--looked very smooth and relaxed with the ball. If Will can get minutes he is going to cause some matchup problems.

    WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!!?? Do you realize we just had to sit thru like 5 months of bullshit baseball? They could have posted a 35 min video of the damn team trainer shooting free throws and it would have been more "exciting"! Basketball is back FAMS!

    The general lack of defensive aggression can be traced to Paul George's injury. It's relaxed because they are all just having fun and getting into rhythm

    I've been longing all summer for a 2-hour video of you showing off your HORSE moves, but only with a good repeating 30-second soundtrack.

    Baseball is even more boring when you're a Cubs fan.

    All I can say is thank Lord Xynu for NBATV. I've been able to dvr and re watch a lot of last seasons games. And some of their documentaries are great!

    Blake has always played good position D. Will did make the shot over him though.

    What the H-E-C-K are YOU talking about? As a video dude, you surely recognize that that these are cherry picked clips where they made shots. Under these conditions I look for high percentage shots, rotating on defense... Several of the shots were low percentage types which means they actually did a lot of missing and the video maker was afraid to show actual live action. The things I liked were Blake's unselfishness and some massive sweat on the guys.

    HCP...rustle up a new tape every day, please. Tell the mystery video editor it's okay to show only makes...in fact, that's more fun for us to watch.

    Baseball is my #1 sport, all day every day. That'll never change.

    And, actually, I'm watching the Ryder Cup right now.
