a little bit at Washington. Um really young. I mean, we know Chris is there and there are some vets, but uh just how do you kind of look ahead at that team where there there’s tape on these guys, but they’re still figuring it out. And I think we’re we’re all figuring it out. Like I don’t think anyone’s done. Oklahoma is not figuring it out and maybe a couple other teams, but the other 26 teams, 27 teams are all trying to figure it out. you know, even some of the good teams last year have had coaching changes, you know, so they’re trying to figure it out. That’s just part of the early season. You’re really trying to focus more on yourselves than the other team, you know. Uh you you don’t need tape to know that they’re young and they’re going to try to play fast, but they they also have two uh really good vets that can put the ball in the hole and and CJ and and Chris, I mean, those are elite scorers. So you mean that’s part of their their um where they’ve improved? Uh I mean we’ve been talking six days since last time we played now. You mean we mean and us? Oh okay. I was trying to see figure that out. Follow us here. I mean I can only write so much about what you say you’re going to do. Oh yeah. Yeah. Don’t write anything I say. I mean that wouldn’t be wise. The live action starts like how excited do you feel like you guys are? Yeah. I mean listen the coaches aren’t excited because we don’t get to play. Um, but the players are excited, you know. Um, I I was a player and I come on, I wanted to play enough of the whistleblowing and adjustments. Um, I always thought now we get to show you we can play cuz the first like eight weeks of camp which we used to have. It was like he was trying to show us how to play now. So, I’ve always looked at it that way. You’re not excited about No, I’m excited about the season. I’m just not excited about I’m not playing. I mean, I I can’t wait for the season to start and to see us play and to watch us play like um I like this team, but you know, again, we got to find out, you know, everybody’s bought in on day one um until 7:00 on every team and then the game starts and you got to make sure your team stays bought in. You know, one of the players I think asked me today or yesterday, “Man, there’s a lot of good teams.” And I said, “Yeah, but there’s not a lot of bought-in teams.” And that’s a big difference. A lot of teams with a lot of players on their team, a lot of talent. Uh, but if they don’t all buy in that they’re not going to be a good team. And and that’s how I feel about us. How do you differentiate? You know, it it’s I don’t think you differentiate. I don’t think that’s something that’s that’s either they do it or they don’t. There it’s not a gray line there. It’s not a maybe they’re buying in. Either they do or they don’t. And you know that that’s from they’re making the next pass, making the right cut, doing all the right things, not worried about themselves, giving themselves to the team. It’s a lot to it, but you know the teams that are and you know the teams are not. All you have to do is look at the finals and that team is. And it’s no, it’s never been a team that’s not bought in, has never won an NBA title in the history of the game. And it’s and it’s that simple.

Let’s go coach !
I think thus far Gary Harris hasn’t shown me anything to warrant a roster spot, I thought he would be decent but I haven’t seen it but I don’t know if it was the injury or he just doesn’t have it! If it’s not registering he may be the expendable to give Chris Livingston his place back to continue developing and become a player that can fit, it seems like we can’t pick folks with that killa in them out of college! I understand youth but killa doesn’t start when u become a Pro, you already have that eye, the face of “ I want to lock down any one that’s in my way” or “You not stopping me from getting mine” or “I want the Tit”! (Movie reference) lol
This coach worries me
