I am encouraged by this team. We have much more talent than last year, it feels like.

I don't know about that. Caruso is a G, and a champion. If Reaves can break into the rotation and contribute I think we'd all be happy with that.


I'm as big a Caruso fan as anyone, but the first sign he was worth anything more than summer camp fodder, before he even got the 2 way contract, was how he scrapped for everything. Reeves does remind me of how AC started out. Can't rule out Reeves taking that missing role at some stage. I'd love to see it.

I know this is with bench players, but I too find this encouraging. It's a positive, in a preseason full of mostly negatives. I'll take it. Win, or lose, keep up that fighting spirit!

Dagnabit. Ah well

At least this crew has looked alive and has been been active and lively.

Not a good comparison as reaves today is probably a better offense player than AC, but I doubt he will ever be as good as AC on defense.

Good effort by the 2nd half group especially the 4th quarter.

I didn’t realize Jordan Bell is back on the Warriors too so you know… Our guys will look better as they play together more. Which is why I want to see everybody playing some of these preseason games none of this resting. Didn’t they just have a summer to rest? Come on Lakers… lol

So far Bazemore, THT, Monk and Rondo deserve minutes
Not convinced Ellington or Nunn should. Hear fans warned his lack of defense would drive us crazy.

I don’t know he seems to move his feet as well.

I said a few weeks back that I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a nice season statistically.

I like this team's depth, especially the fact that we have a lot of guards that are athletic and can shoot. I'm a bit worried about our scoring with LeBron and Westbrook on the floor.

Some teams play to win the game and some teams just want to get stuff on film.

He doesn’t need to be as good as AC on defense, if he shoots well, he plays. His other aspects of the game is mature. Maybe getting a little bulkier would help him.

If I'm coach Vogel I play all the main rotation guys in the rest of the preseason games. This team is behind when it comes to chemistry, rhythm and cohesion, and they need time on the floor together to be ready for the regular season.

Yeah, point well taken and I can't disagree, but I still enjoy seeing that scrappiness, I'm hopeful he can build on it.
