Not much beyond the usual canned media day answers and the Ime talk

One interesting tidbit is Horford said he prepared his body over the offseason to be able to play B2B sets. Let me find out one of his Dominican beisbol cousins gave him the plug :banderas:

Hooked Al up with the cream and the clear mixed into his tres leches :wow:

From the clips of practice yesterday, Kornet was running with the starters

If that big goofy steel toe boot wearing bum is starting opening night against Embiid, I want the basketball gods to just go ahead and kill me :francis:

First game went about as good as we could hope

Offense was a bit sloppy at times but it's the first preseason game you almost expect that. Kabengele & Hauser were extremely impressive, as long as he can stay healthy Brogdon is going to have a huge impact on this team

Jaylen was outstanding. His shot looks more compact and with less movement in it. He had the ball on a string and his handle was a lot quicker. I liked that he took that technical free throw. He should be taking all techs in the preseason to work on his free throw shooting.

There was one time where Al was taking the ball out and he had Jaylen and Jayson right there, wide open. Who did he pass it to? Jayson. That needs to stop. Jaylen needs to be getting the ball more. He needs to work on his handle. Still too much deferring to Tatum. Gotta get outta that habit.

Speaking of Tatum, he fumbled the ball twice and lost it while also getting stripped once. He needs to get stronger with the ball and I didn't see that today.

White's shot looked much better. Straight up and down. Nice and compact. No unnecessary movement. Just nice releases. That was good to see.

Kabengele would have made Tommy proud. He was out there shielding guys on dribble hand offs, immediately rolling to the basket and then blocking defenders out. He was boxing out out there. :wow: He hit a 3 with the utmost confidence. :leon: He had a really nice play where Grant had the ball and he did a wide roll to the basket so he could get away from the defender and let him and Grant's man both suck in on the penetration, which allowed for the alley oop dunk. Really impressed with him in the summer league and today.

Gordon Hayward out again, huh. :skip:

Hauser gonna make the leap this year. That white boy can shoot. The Jays need that floor spacing.
