    Don't really have a choice, unless you want to constantly get up and find a drinking fountain.

    Whenever I go there, I keep the bottle and fill it up at the nearest fountain. It sucks, but at least we don't sell Tofu dogs like Levis Stadium does.

    Are they trying to hide Briscoe?

    I'd find a drinking fountain. So should everyone else.

    I'm not sure Swanigan is any slower than Blake Griffin laterally.
    Prolly is according to the combine numbers, but...

    I'd rather sit and watch the game. I drink a LOT of water, so for me it's kind of essential to have water right there with me. I never leave the house without a thermos filled with ice water.

    Collins looking comfortable, I figured he'd be more nervous than he is. Love his game!

    I swear, if we start actually running transition offenses...

    and just as I say that, Nurk tosses it away. Maybe I'll just stop typing now.

    Collin is so active around the rim, challenging shots and hustling after boards.

    I think Collins is going to be our starting PF by next year. He looks like he can be an elite defender. So quick, athletic, long arms, and he's instinctive. You can tell he's a lot more comfortable at this point being a support player than he was in summer league. He's also reportedly got a wicked 3pt shot.

    Such a quick spin move by Nurkic.

    Um, if Nurk's got that in the arsenal, along with Calabro-anointed "flutterball" from 18', wow.

    I wonder when we're going to see Morrow. I just can't see Pat possibly getting PT over Morrow.

    Connaughton has this amazing ability to make absolutely zero impact on the game.

    When they call him Bosnian Beast they were just alluding his potent aftershave. This year when he shows the level of his disregard for life in the NBA!

    Collins is using up his fouls like a prime Meyers Leonard.
