    I wanted to trade our first this year for Jokic - well before the season was over.

    I hope Neil at least asked Denver about him when they demanded a first rounder for a rental in Afflalo.

    Kristaps(!) looked great in his debut - 9/10/2. He knows where to be and doesn't look like a lost child on the court.

    He does have hands-of-stone syndrome. Though, I hope it was just nerves. Or his hands are tiny. I can't tell.

    He'll have to develop a hook shot and a finger roll layup! Now they'll start questioning having preseason play I'm guessing..our version of a FIBA tournament only no trophy!

    It's going to be good to see some old players retire or take up coaching for a change. Next generation of superstars is an interesting bunch..Anthony Davis is going to be one of the greatest players on the planet for awhile I think.

    Just realized that the Hornets have both Jeremy Lin and Jeremy Lamb. Somebody's going to get confused.

    Bobby Portis is solid. Looks like another steal for the Bulls.

    Well, I thought he meant BACK-UP power forward - the role Vonleh will be playing here and could have been playing in CHO. Zeller shooting 3-3 from 3-point range is making him look like their version of Meyers Leonard, the guy Vonleh will be backing up in Portland.

    Cody Zeller is their backup. Marvin Williams is starting.
