    They said it won't be down until after the new year. The Canadian company that made the new floor did part of the measurements in metrics so it doesn't fit. They're making a new floor.

    Sly if I send you my slomo video of Will's end of scrimmage dunk I shot, can you post it on here. Only 10 secs long and in HD. Came out really nice.

    Watching it now...

    Will Barton is a clone of JR Smith.

    I just hope he can get the playing time, even if that means playing SF.

    CJ put in work! He's clearly bigger than Blake or Lillard.

    Leo looks solid.

    Not joking here, but heard from somebody I really trust that Meyers has looked pretty damn good in camp!

    And yes, CJ looked solid tonight. So did Blake!

    They said they already put it down and liked how it looked.

    I hope it's more than just a change in the colors (like the ones we've seen on here). Thats pretty tame

    I agree with what Tone was saying during the game - on the rebounds Meyers was noticeably in the right spot time and again - which as well all know is a positive change.

    Got lucky and happened to be recording when he went up. I had missed the 2 sweet Nic dunks earlier!

    Oh god I hope that's true. I don't care if he plays a single minute so long as I don't have to endure another season of sophomoric Meyers Leonard bashing.

    Is he playing more center or PF? No doubt he can shoot the mid range jumper. The problem for him, is once the season starts and they settle on a 10 man rotation, he won't get a chance to play. Then when he does get some sporadic minutes he won't have any confidence.It is tough for these young guys coming off the bench with inconsistent minutes. But it is good to hear none the less in case of injuries.

    One thing I got from the Fanfest, Meyers can really use a PG like Blake.

    I believe that. Meyers still has a lot to learn. People shouldn't discount how inexperienced he is. He will benefit from having coaches on the floor. Blanky, Kaman, and Lopez are all that.
