    I like him. ?? What's wrong with him.


    But he looks like a midget next to the new tall gal with the 3" heels on TWSN.

    He's a clown, he's beyond goofy. He tries to make jokes and I cringe. He throws rap lyrics out there and sounds like my out of touch uncle trying to be cool. I guess I'm not a fan of the whole access sports net show, or #lakeshow in ways at all, and he's the main part (the hashtag stuff also makes me cringe). Worthy, great. Horry, love him. Miller, shut up with the goofy crap and do your thing at the access 360 board and then shut up again. He's just too damn goofy for me, the lame as hell jokes, the dumb expression on his face, the switching between being serious and talking basketball and being a moron, it's jarring lol. I sound like an angry person I know, but I'm not, he bugs me big time though.

    Byron is cool as the other side of the pillow compared to Miller. I don't love his coaching, but I at least like the guy.

    I see. Never have paid enough attention to that part of him so I haven't really noticed it. The basketball side he does OK with. Shows how observant I am I guess.

    :p

    Eh, I think we win if it's the regular season, better lineups, better rotations. Snyder might be a superior coach to Byron though.

    Definitely think its a win if regular season. We look way more talented than the Jazz. We had a 10pt lead at one point until the 3rd stringers started to come in.

    Rotations were a big thing. Why play guys the entire quarter? Why not just play them in 8 min increments. We would have probably won under normal rotations.

    WMC: Sacre and Jabari need to be cut. Black is just so much better than Sacre in just a single play. Jabari is a little redundant with Lou while also making bone headed plays and pretty much blew the game open for Utah.

    The Jazz wasn't going all out themselves. So unless Kobe can be healthy and play lots of games plus Russell become a super star, we might be lucky to win 30 at this point.

    I think you're reading too much into one preseason game. We aren't very good, but we aren't nearly as bad as last season. With relatively good health, we're better than 30 wins. Guys couldn't make a shot tonight, everyone was either rusty or had dead legs. Bass is more steady than that, Clarkson will be better than that, Kobe barely played, it's Russell's first game, etc. You roll with starting lineup and they start to gel, and then we roll out our bench of Huertas, Lou, Young, Bass, and Black, and that's a solid team. That's a great bench.

    And I actually think the Jazz were going close to all out, guys screaming on dunks, Hayward playing close to normal minutes, dude almost killing Randle on a layup, they wanted a win. Byron wanted to confuse the fans with his lineups. Or condition the players, one of the two.

    You're probably right Weez. But when you factor in, last season,the Summer League which we were supposed to dominate and this game, there is just something askew. Byron' Cheshire face really doesn't inspire confidence that he can right this ship.

    What's up with Lou's throwing up desperation shots before the whistle, thinking he got fouled? Never seen someone do that 4-5 times in 1 game.

    I don't think Randle has a jumpshot. Almost all NBA players can hit a midrange jumper now and then, making a handful in a row in practice footage, but that doesn't mean they can shoot or should ever use it. I don't think he has a jumper that should be used (yet).

    Why was Sacre the first bog off the bench in lieu of Black? Maybe he's just too small for Utah's trees? I hope to see Upshaw Tuesday.

    I think Kelly may deserve to stay on the active Roster ahead of both Browns and Nance.

    I agree about Kelly. He looked better than Bass and Randle today which is sad.
