I'm just hoping Fes gets at least 8-10 minutes of burn per game during the regular season before Okur comes back and show some consistency.

From what I'm hearing on KFAN, all the young guys are in fact doing well in the games and deserve Sloan's praise. No senility there 
The word on Wes Matthews and his ascension thru the NBA ranks is likely known to every FA's agent out there. At least those players on the Jazz were paying attention and showing it on the court!
Watson has been known from past history to shoot a little quick, and is likely trying to tone that down under Sloan's watchful eye. He has been playing tough D, pushing the ball upcourt and getting assists, which is what I like to see from my b/u PG.
TBH, I liked every FA signing, trade, and draft choice KoC made this off-season; trust me, that is a FIRST in my experience in my 50 years of following all my Pro Sports teams...

For anyone interested, I updated the minutes through game 4...
Things are starting to flesh out a bit with each game.
I really like AK starting, then subbing in CJ, then having AK back in for Sap. I have a feeling CJ will be the scoring 6th man, it's a perfect role for him.
Watson is definitely an upgrade at the backup PG. He get the team in their sets and runs the offense. Finally.

I approve.

The way Gaines keeps drawing praise from Coach, we may end up with 4 PG's on the final 15, with Price as a combo-guard. Williams would be better at it, but openly dislikes that role... Two point guard lineups have been on the rise in the NBA anyway.
Thompson may end up in the D-league. We may be able to slip him thru, as he han't done enough, IMO, to draw a lot of interest from other teams...
