TT/Love May be the best front court in the East. I’m excited to watch them roll teams with shear force.

TT sighting here. He looks pretty good.

Interesting to see LeBen and TT hook up. Same with Russ/Bagley

TT still looks mechanical but it was nice seeing him make a couple of jumpers. Bagley is such a fluid athlete and Westbrook looked bigger.

and Westbrook looked bigger.

Yeah, he did. Looks like he put on 20lbs of muscle, at least.

Not to me.

Most fluid I've ever seen him move with no hesitation.

He looked good to me.

He looked good to me.

In a game where no defense was being played...at all.

 

[Cavatt]

He has that little flip shot going. That was actually pretty effective before Lebron came. He can get 10 a game hustling, but I don't know if I want him out there that long.

And?

What does that have to do with TT looking more fluid?

And?

Everything. It's easy to look fluid without real contact, when the defender is giving him space to do his go-to moves.

Other videos of him this summer have looked downright robotic. Like that YMCAish video posted earlier this year where he was supposedly "killing it."

TT will never be fluid. He is what he is. If he gets back in shape and plays with a high motor again, that would be awesome. I'd love it. But I see little here to convince me that he's somehow improved his fluidity or movement.

This is how all NBA players look, even scrubs, when playing in open gym type settings with shitty players guarding them and no pressure.

Hell, you can go to a setting like this and a good college player will destroy guys.

TT is going to suck again.....anyone thinking otherwise is really setting themselves up to be disappointed.

I don't agree. TT has lots of reasons to be motivated and get back in shape to play with a high motor again.

All that I'm saying is that it's VERY unlikely that he's developed some new aspect of his game.

But, he doesn't need to. If TT gets back to being one of the best offensive rebounders, with high level defense, then that would be great.

Kardashion shit aside, I don't really have many problems with TT.

Well they are both hooking up with a Kardashian .... here's hoping that Ben Simmins doesn't get the Kardashian curse, he is fun to watch

I was completely over the guy until he clocked @DonkeyLips. Now he's rightfully become a bit of a cult hero. I still want him gone though. If he can redeem some of his value and we can get more than a used jock strap back for him, all the better.

As for him and Dwight Howard becoming 3 point shooters?

lol.

TT throws a lob @ 20 seconds.
