    So, who you got for starters?
    Baldwin/Trent/Layman/Collins/Swanigan? All of those guys except Trent know all of the plays already.

    Prediction: the team will struggle to score until they insert Casper Ware as a starter. (Maybe even then, because he's not exactly "pass first".) He will also be the player that impresses us most.
    He will then fail to get a training camp invite.

    All I want to see is the ball in Zach's hands every trip down the floor. This whole session should be about him developing and getting him up to speed for the season.

    because he's probably much better than you think...like a lot of our 2 year project guys...3rd year is a charm...he has a lot of skills. I watched his D league games and the announcers to a man said Layman was the most NBA ready player on the court...and he shot really well...bench rust for rookies doesn't always tell the story...Crabbe, McCollum and Barton all went through the same thing....people wanted all of them gone their second year pretty much..CJ earned his spot when Wes went down...Barton didn't really play well the 3 years he was here.

    Agreed. But let's hope the message gets delivered the priorities of this session are. Nobody on this team we sent will get PT this season EXCEPT Zach. He needs to put in some work, especially now that Ed is gone.
