    I’m confused. Last game of the preseason. A whole bunch of new guys trying to learn each other. We decide to play the super young guys and scrubs.

    Why not build some continuity going into the season? All I’ve seen since I started watching in the 2nd half is rat ball. No structure. Awful looking basketball. Rookies or not.

    "The officials are looking at their watches."
