The podcasts are awesome. Steve is such a mensch. Love his instant recall on things none of us would fathom. His ‘96 lineup is classic. I’ll digress toward the positive on a couple items just for the faithful. One thing I’ll never forget was when PG scored 37 in 19 minutes and did something close to that on one or more occasions too. This was after double shoulder surgery. I’m not guaranteeing anything but I sure as hell won’t be surprised if he comes in 100 % this season and is a top 10 player. Maybe better. When I look at the Lakers and us I think PG is the best player between the two teams. AD is the best weapon but PG is the best player. I think Reggie will be even better this season and Zu and Terrence will also take a step forward. Morris won’t be better or worse. Nic is the one guy I slightly worry about with regard to regression but only slightly. Bledsoe’s motor is such that I expect him to be really good still. Luke will emerge as a reliable marksman. The two remaining variables for me are if Serge can get healthy and which (if any) of our wild card pick ups can break out. I’ve been shamelessly high on Scrubb but I get it that he could be a bust. Boston is another story. Who knows when he will blossom but he absolutely will. This is going to be a really fun and enigmatic season.

Wants to see a lot of him as a transition playmaker.
We have so many young guys now.
It will be fun to see him rebound the ball and push the pace with the young guns.

I wanna see him dunk on AD jokic and emblid the way he was poster-raping gobert in the playoffs.

It would be a good problem to have I just I hope Mann after last year and training camp just gets the nod right out the gate for that starting position in which he has to lose minutes to justice and others if doesn’t do well. Not “seeing how justice plays with the starters because he’s bigger covers more positions /pf or whatnot. Justice needs to earn everything this year . Mann paid mad dues during the playoffs and during the season getting better every year and staying healthy.
Luke proved a bit as well but let Bledsoe Luke justice batum/Morris along with serge come off the bench?!

Yeah both of those improvements would be nice. I’d care more about the defense than foul drawing

I think he might do it

I doubt Justise passes Mann for playing time but it’s a possibility.

Luke believes in his shot and is a good shooter! He needs to do some other stuff

If he can work on drawing fouls watch out. I’m also hopeful his on-ball defense will tighten up too.
