"We don't take anyone lightly. We're gonna be ready to play," said Cadee. "They play fast. Sometimes, it does look a bit random, but they look like they have a good feel for each other."

"Blatche is a big part of it, and (Jayson) Castro seems to control them very nicely," he added.

Castro will not be playing on Thursday as he is still recovering from an ankle injury. Blatche is expected to take a bigger responsibility while Kiefer Ravena will handle the bulk of playmaking duties.
