This is what we came for. The duel is kicking into gear.

Man, this is getting fun...great Wiggins/Parker show. These guys may not be your typical rookies.

I also like that Wiggins got back on track when he started attacking on and off the ball instead of settling for 3's. That's good awareness to get back to your game when the shot isn't falling from 3.

I want to congratulate the board tonight for staying away from any snarky comments about the matching shirts for David Blatt and his assistants.

Bennett looks in much better shape than I remember.

It was crazy. They mentioned on top of the shoulder injury, has has sleep apnea and asthma. I'm shocked he was even able to do what he could last year knowing all that. I think he's one more year away from being a worthy rotation guy. The guy was out of shape, exhausted and couldn't breath.

Quick observations....

- Parker looked to be more aggressive than Wiggins offensively, to the point of taking some pretty bad shots. But he definitely seemed to have more of an alpha dog mentality.

- Wiggins seemed to let the game come to him and didn't force things as much. I like the mechanics on his jumper, but he struggled from 3 tonight. Not sure how effective he'll be getting to the rim off the bounce. Had a couple of "wow!" athletic plays.

- Not a fan of Bennett. He looks like he doesn't know what he wants to be when he grows up. Floats way too much out on the perimeter taking ill-advised jumpers.

- The Greek Freak is truly freakish. He's still a little raw offensively, but it looks like he's making strides. He could really be a factor for Milwaukee this season.
