    “This week is going to be big for us, we’ve got to lock in and be ready for that first game,” said Anfernee Simons. “We’ve got a lot of stuff to work on, for sure, getting in accord and being all in sync. We’ve got a full week to figure it out, that’s good. We’ve got plenty of time to go through every situation we went through this preseason.”

    “We’ve got to have our minds right,” said Lillard. “We’ve got to understand how precious each possession is and why you’ve got to play hard and play smart. We’ve got to understand that nothing is going to come easy for us, everything is going to be hard. We’ve got to play hard, we’ve got to be smart, we’ve got to be connected, we’ve got to be together and it’s got to mean something to us as a group. It has to mean something because we’ve got a small margin for error where if we not on point in those small, little important things, it can be a 20-point blowout. Teams are just that good now.”

    No shit, Sherlock. I bet they’ll play some regular season games after they prepare, too.
