What I'm Watching For As Preseason Play Begins Tonight

[Play Boban]

I guess poop has been running them ragged in practice if they need rest already tbh

Pop already campaigning for that 4th COY
If we continue to see Mills, Marco, and Lyles out for the rest of the year then it's a lock for him to win it.

Looks like Pop's going with Murray, Forbes, DeRozan, Aldridge and Poeltl. Interesting, although it's probably not sustainable unless Murray or DeRozan improves shooting-wise. White as Ginobili 2.0 is an arrangement that could work really well, IMO.

Where can I watch the game?

Poeltl started 14 of the final 17 regular season games, IIRC.

And seems like that’s what we’re getting going forward... at least for now. I like the combo against the right matchups. But you can’t trot out an NBA lineup with one three point shooter these days.

line ups to for the regular season will be

Murray/Forbes/DeRozan/Carroll/LA and
White/Mills/Walker/Gay/Poeltl

Obviously I wouldn't play Mills at all, but we all know Pop will play him an average of 20+ min and have him in the closing line up by the end of the 4th when we need a stop. He'll also switch Walker and Beli as bench SF so Walker has to earn his rotation spot

Carroll shot 34% from 3 last year. Gay shot 40%. Rudy will start in a shooting poor lineup.

While he shot a better % he shot significantly less. I feel that’s Carroll would be better because he will let them fly while Rudy would get in the habit of pump faking the 3 for a mid range jumper.

2 and 0 are on the wrong sides of the decimal point tbh

I doubt that they signed Carroll to defend opposing bench players. He should start and his shooting percentage should get better on the Spurs
