    S*** can the worry on Wood. 1st game I think was pure rust and timing. 2nd game showed he’s going to eat up opposing benches, IS thicker, quick and strong enough to help do that AND may form a bench Twin Towers tandem with Hayes. Look the hell out IF that happens with Rui, Christie and Gabe to run with.

    Yeah, we suck!! We all know that Lebron is playing on fumes and AD is a ghost of his former self, before he was on the Lakers. AR is just a temporary freak, he is gonna fall apart soon. Rui is held together with glue.

    If the GM's are saying it is so, them's the facts!!!

    Ugly preseason game: first time team looked disjointed and not very good.

    Got to do things like boxing out

    I thought the starters looked good but that lineup in the third was horrendous.

    What we needed was a true athlete in the draft, we had the chance to play Whitmore behind LeBron but we choose an unplayable leaf eater who will get injured and not recover for lack of protein in his diet

    yeah, lebron stopped boxing out a couple years back, and it sort of hurts on a nightly basis. we don't need reaves following suit. you can kind of survive one guy not being great at it, but not two. (russ was terrible at this, too)

    Reaves is generally pretty good about boxing out but I can see he’s not giving his all yet and is ramping back up for the season.
