Just don't know what the plan is for SA.  They are still missing Vassel, but I just didn't get their offseason.  Now they are still positioned well for the future.  Maybe they plan to bottom out and get a top pick and then go in overdrive.  Where have we seen that before?  Wemby deserves a better team around him though.

Josh Green started and got 9 points last night.  Also starting is Seth Curry.  Brandon Miller is out so I would guess he would replace Seth.  Former OKC player Trae Mann has gotten off to a hot start this year.  They also have a Martin brother and a lottery pick for a wing.  So Green will need to play well to earn minutes.  It should be a good opportunity for him to find a footing.

Are the Pelicans one of the weirdest teams in the league.  Unhappy Ingram.  Zion shot 5-20 last night.  Daniel Theis started at center.  Daniel Theis......First round pick Missi is the backup and he only played 12 minutes to Theis 5.  What are they doing at center?

Grizzles started out the year with more injuries and dropped a game to the tanking Nets.

Having a guy like Chet at center causes all kinds of matchup problems for the other team, especially in the playoffs.
