When did the Beast show up?

The preseason has kind of gotten away from me, but...is Elton looking like a beast?



Elbowing Pu$$y Jeffries in the eye, cleaning glass, sparking the fast break, etc. I almost forgot how excited I was when we signed Brand last summer. But even then, I didn't know he had The Beast in him.

Between that and what Thad is flashing, I'm starting to get happy. If this team starts to gel with EB, and Thad makes a leap, and Iggy gets calm and consistent (finally) -- then we're one sale away (i.e. Sammy's contract) from having one bright effing future.

P.S. Nada on the tix. I'm too poor. But we should definitely get together for the opener. Big screen HD is fine by me.

the video of the confrontation between them is great. You see Elton mouth "you soft" over to Jeffries.

And what about young Speights. I hesitated to write anything cus it was only preseason, but you gotta start learning how to win sometime, right?

They seem like they've got a collective spirit, and hustle to them. They have talent. If Lou can step in and not make mistakes, they can really take off. Thaddeus, Elton and Speights are a lot to deal with for anybody's front court. This year could be fun. Hookin' up for the first game sounds good. Wednesday the 28th against Orlando.
