    Like everything I heard here, sounds very respectful and humble. I got high hopes for a couple of our new guys.

    Yeah. Everyone is now saying "I'll do whatever the team/teammates/coach needs me to do".

    Very encouraging.

    Plus when you can make free throws you look to draw fouls instead of avoiding the line.

    As much as it hurts to lose Caruso, I am starting to come around on this squad. The team first approach instead of the Schröder way is so refreshing and remindis me of the last championship team. I hope it translates to the actual season.

    Yeah I feel like the way we assembled this team is much like our latest championship, lots of vets to surround Bron and AD who just want to win. The addition of some real shooters is also very encouraging.

    Lord I like this kid. See,s to have a rare balance of confidence and humility. And his attitude for this learning is great too. Like a hungry freshman who gets to hang with and learn from all these cool-a** PhDs.

    It’s still astounding to think of all the knowledge these kids have to tap into: Bron, AD, Russ, Marc, Dawight, Melo, Trevor, etc. Damn these kids are lucky. Happy for Malik.
