I hate to be like this, but I predict a loss.

Hopefully we'll beat them so bad that they will change their name to the Brisbane Wizards.

I hope TJ and Booker are able to get some minutes.

So, its looking to me like the opening day roster is going to be. . .

Chandler
Chriss
Warren
Booker
Bledsoe

Jackson is going to be our supersub for a while. He will come in for three positions and will probably spend a lot of time on the floor defending the other team's best scorer (if its not a center).

Chriss is going to spend significant time at center and so will Len.

Judging from preseason, Bender is not ready for prime time yet. Too bad. I was hoping he would really be showing something by now.

Ulis will get a lot of minutes. Bledsoe has been underwhelming in preseason, but it is just preseason. Booker might play some pg.

It know most if this is obvious.

I think it should be the following, based on preseason:
Bledsoe
Booker
Jackson
Warren
Len

Was going to post exactly this. Chriss has lost his spot and Len has earned his. Not mad about keeping Chandler to see if Len truly keeps it together, but Jackson-Warren needs to happen.

Agreed. But i don't see Watson making Chriss earn his minutes any more this year than he did last year.

Interesting. As of Tuesday's Watson interview on KTAR they had not settled on a starting line-up. I think whatever it is tonight will likely be the line-up for the opener.

Hmm, it doesn't show on League Pass for me (Dish). Please report if it actually there once the game starts. Would seem strange to have it on DirecTV but not Dish (same league pass).

It will be there. They don't go away. I don't think it was there until recently.

But will do. My goal is to be home for tipoff.

Well about opening night Starters, I didn't get to see much of last game casue the FB feed wasn't working properly for me but someone posted that Chriss was actually rebounding well and the box score had him for 12 boards which was easily the best stat he's had including SL. If you go on whatever test that was Watson did by running the guys into the ground at practice and wanting to see who bring the energy and "fight through the wall" I'm guessing Chriss might have passed. Like I said tho, didn't watch the game but that stat jumped out at me like maybe he was finally giving good effort
