After weeks of counting down, we are almost there...only four days until the regular season tips off.

There is a lot of excitement and great energy surrounding the team, and we are focused on building something great.

The past two games have felt like regular season games: high intensity and an overtime game with CP3 going for 40 in Las Vegas to show that we take preseason seriously.

I have continued to play the role Doc sees for me. My effort is to stay ready so that when my name is called I can be an asset to the team.

Tonight we are going into our last preseason game against the Kings. The fans at Staples Center have been great, high in attendance and support.

Looking forward to Tuesday's season opener and Thursdays home opener.
