Has been a rocky start for Donovan.
Ups and Downs.
Utah has a strong starting 5, a good 6th man, and needs another 2 bench guys to step up.
Exum is very quick but can't make a layup and can't shoot.
Was very surprised they coughed up $9M per for him (4 year deal).
Burks is streaky. Royce is a hustle guy. Enough?
Doncic is doing better than I expected. Turnovers are high, but he's 19 and playing 35 mins a night. He had a lot of recklessness to his game and unnecessary pizzazz. I thought he'd be high turnover and shooting poor on 3's. If the only major flaw so far is high TO's, not a worry, they can work that out later. He's transitioned pretty well so far.
Wiz are 1-5. Their one win by 1 pt. Hasn't been an easy schedule.
Teams get much easier for the next 3 weeks. 8 of first 12 on the Road isn't fun. WAS has been underperforming the past few years. Starting Mahinmi, adding Dwight and Awful Rivers aren't improvements.
