    Concerns for the second unit:

    Shot clock
    Getting back on defense
    Finding your man

    Zach absolutely schooled Millsap. Who's the veteran again?

    We are relying on waaaaaay too much youth on our second unit. We need more veterans.

    Zach can block the shot or take a charge. What a renaissance man!

    I do like Mario pushing it. Fitting him with CJ when he comes in at the 8 minute mark of q2 could be deadly.

    All our guys should learn to pass it to Zach more on the roll.

    "Watching" is the key word. He is not fun to watch.

    We need to stagger. That unit will struggle in the halfcourt. Been saying that all preseason...
