Chris Paul on who’s stood out to him in camp: “I’m playing with a brand new group of guys. Everybody. Brook Lopez. He’s been in the league now 18 years. Competed him against him for a long time and now to get a chance to play alongside him has been pretty dope.”
James Harden on a player who has ‘wowed’ him during training camp: “I think Brook [Lopez]. ... He’s good, man. … He’s gonna bring a lot of value to our team. I’m excited he’s on our side.”
The keys to winning that don’t show up in a stat sheet, highlight clips or in the articles;
1. Bench Energy ( Coaches and Players)
2. Passes that lead to good shots that were just missed.
3. Forgiveness when a teammate makes a turnover , mistake or missed pass opportunity.
We don’t make it to Dame Time if not for this shot from Brook. What a shot Brook sprinting to the corner, catches it while still on the move, sets his feet and knocks it down with a hand in his face.
I say we move Thanksgiving & Christmas to sometime in August when everyone is healthy.
And we leave the normally scheduled dates for sick days, because every family with kids is sick right now!
“How was Christmas?”
“Good, other than the fact that we all died for a week.” 😂
