I only caught the 4th quarter. McDermott sacrificing his body way too much in a preseason game.

Felicio may have choked, but at least he had this moment

I like Felicio in short spurts.

I pull my hair out watching him play extended minutes. Dude is a solid...heck, even surprising 10mpg player and that's it.

Valentine is out 2 weeks with a left ankle sprain. Basically takes him entirely out of preseason.

Felicio provides a nice presence on defense and brings good energy. Has a decent offensive game too. He deserves more than 10 mpg, IMO. I still think we need to cash out Taj. Or at the very least, trade Niko. Taj isn't part of the long term plan here, and I don't see the point of re-signing Niko to a crazy deal in the new CBA. Felicio, Portis, and Lopez is a nice start in the front court going forward.

Mirotic is such a liability. I hope Fred and Niko work out the right matchups soon, because he's just frustrating to watch when he doesn't get into his streak.

I'd rather trade Niko now than:

A. Overpay for him in free agency
B. Lose him nor nothing. At least shuffle the deck and open up minutes for Felicio and Portis.

When Niko get ball, Niko shoot ball.

Mirotic has been bad. It's really to bad he has no consistency at all. He has spurts where he looks like an all star and then he has spurts where he looks like a scrub.

Niko never really has spurts where he looks like an all-star. He'll have brief periods where he shoots the ball well but does nothing else close to an all-star level. His overall game and intangibles are poor.
