Dwight looks like he's Dennis Rodman out there and I love it.


Absolutely! Perfecting the little things adds up. Very happy with his play

I like the new format better DB, especially your extended thoughts on the players while keeping the stats. I don’t miss the play by play.

Also, I really liked what you added to the conversation Wolf, I hope to see more of that.

Caruso has now turned both games he has played in around.

Dwight Howard has been nothing short of fantastic so far, tremendous effort and playing his assigned role perfectly.

Much better defensive energy in the 2nd half, I was bummed watching them go through the motions in the 1st half, but they turned it on and held them to 39 points in the 2nd half.


+1

The 2nd half D was something of a sight for sore eyes from years past.

New look, same great taste . It's almost like we're still in preseason and Vogel is still figuring out what he has with personnel and rotations. Good thing we have a soft schedule because these last two games have seriously felt like exhibitions. DB, you think Vogel will start to settle on his rotations or could we see this committee approach throughout the year? We're pretty deep with talent.

Experimenting with changing up the format a little based on the feedback to take out the play by play and do a little more in the stuff that's more read. (May take a little tweaking in my process to make it efficient, but we'll play around with it.)


Thanks DB. I never read the play-by-play but perhaps others did. At least it saves you some time and work. Keep up the good work!


I'm not sure if it will or not. We'll see.

BTW, the biggest thing I notice with Dwight is not the rebounds, blocks, dunks or layups (or even the post up move he made yesterday). It's that when he is out there, he runs the 5 out offense far better than any of our other bigs, because he sets the best screens for guards. This is usually leading to the 5 out offense creating a shot for a teammate as opposed to Lebron. Otherwise we are relying heavily on Lebron to create, or AD. It is very important to me that AD and McGee also begin to do this. I have not seen great screen setting by either of them on a consistent basis, nor a focus on running the 5 out offense. AD usually looks for his own number (which is fine, he is the star of the team, but I'd still like better screens) and McGee seems more focused on getting to the basket for scores.


Yes, I'm starting to pay closer attention to McGee's screen setting. Howard is killing it here. I'm going to save those comments for a later game after watching it for a game or two more.

Yes, Wolf has been bringing it. He should tag in for me on occasion.
