    I don't mean I'm 100% with this. I mean he's making them pay 100%.

    So everyone got the starting lineup they wanted, and they started poorly.
    Ironically, Grant had a plus 12 (game high of 18) while Deni, Shae, and Camara all had around a -4
    I would stick with that lineup, but I still am not sure it really matters. (between Deni, Tou, and Grant)

    no doubt Yang is going to have some struggles this year. Dude is 20, filling out physically, assimilating into a new culture and taking a huge step up in competition... thats a lot of stuff. He clearly has skills & a high BBall IQ that should give everyone lots of optimism for whats ahead. One complaint I keep hearing on him that seems odd is how he's going to struggle so much on D. Initially, sure, he's 20 and guys are going to teach him some lessons these first few seasons. But he's pretty agile for a true Big and thats going to translate once he knows what he's doing. Watching him play you can see how he posted such a fast shuttle run at the combine, faster then some of the lotto guards. It's going to be fun watching him evolve and have his Neo moments

    I love Clingans defense but man watching him miss the rim while he’s under the basket is tough to watch. I can remember at least two times he was under the basket and completely missed the rim. How’s that even possible, lol.
