    Anytime we beat the Lakers, you have to be happy. Still not a playoff team this year, but it should be a fun team to watch.

    LA got 8 boards in 24 Mins though. That's pretty encouraging. Wes was 50% from the floor and 66% from 3.

    It's really nice to see Lillard so comfortable. He already looks like a seasoned veteran. His demeanor reminds me of Roy, so calm and collected.

    The defense looked pretty good, especially considering it's first game with a new system and lots of new players.

    Morrison/Babbitt/Claver seem redundant.

    One or two have to go.

    I enjoyed an easy win by the Blazers. Lillard looked nice, as did Leonard.

    Not sure what game those posting in this thread were watching, but two pages complaining about Luke Babbit is just stupid and boring. If he's this year's designated scapegoat, what's the point in even watching the games? He'll be, at best, the 8th player in the rotation to start the season. It's like complaining about Przy for being terrible at everything outside of being gritty at times.

    Add Pavlovic to that list as well.

    Of those three, it would probably be AmMo since he is the only non-guaranteed contract player.

    Terry Stotts reminds me of the janitor from Scrubs.

    It's probably been mentioned countless times throughout this thread, but the offense looks night and day different than last year. No isos! As a consequence, Aldridge maybe doesn't get as many shots as we'd want him to take. I'm sure they'll tweak it to get him more looks. It didn't seem to bother him, he looked engaged on defense and grabbing boards. All five players touch the ball on possessions. Guys moving. And it looks like they've run it for years, as there weren't sloppy, unsure turnovers that have haunted us in the past. Stotts appears to have these guys' attention! Fun game to watch.

    Wes' handles doesn't seem much improved. But this is one game, so maybe it's too soon to call.

    But what's troubling is LMA didn't go much into the low post. He was working mostly form the high to mid-post areas. I hope this is just him taking it easy for the pre-season.

    Przy was a warrior. Please don't compare him to Babbitt.
