I am really looking forward to this season.

That’s all I got.

Then in Phoenix he was hurt or checked out.

I hope we try things this year, to be honest.
Let him start, come off the bench or sit when he feels too old to suit up. I don’t care.
Just make sure you are ready when called up on and we are good to go.
I personally prefer James/Dunn/Kawhi/Collins/Zu starting with CP3/Beal/DJJ/Batum/Brook comes off the bench when Bogi is not available.
Brown, Cam & Konan might actually be there if the game is basically over after Q3.
…
Will root hard for Beal. By all account looks like a nice guy and cool vet to be around. Let’s see.

I understand he showed some defensive chops there but I always just thot of him as a volume scorer.

We’ll all know soon enough. Assuming availability of the key roster guys, I’d give it 10 games and then we’ll know.
