What changes have you all noticed with the team so far now that the preseason is over?

I will start. JJ is more active than John Collins at the PF spot. My issue with John was that if his shot wasn't falling (and it wasn't a lot last season) hw offered nothing else. JJ has good handles, good court vision,  and hustles on D. I saw one series the other night where he guarded all five positions on the other team. I am also noticing more ball movement and less of the one one one stuff. I think that even with DJ and Trae our strength will be our team as a whole. Another thing that I have noticed is that they are not settling for the 3 as much--these guys will drive or move in for a better shot.

EVERYTHING on both sides of the ball!

I mean OO has already taken 13 3s in the preseason, he took 13 ALL of last season.

Isn't the corner 3 supposed to be the easiest shot from 3?  Can we also stop stepping out of bounds there too - Bey?

One thing I noticed:

We are not running much PnR with CC, more Dribble handoffs - which I find confusing since CC can't really do much of anything on offense from the elbow that far from the basket. Also, teams aren't going to guard him out there. I think this is more OO's game to make a play from that position - just need him to be aggressive with it.
