It's Grady. But there will be games where Grady will be doing ESPN and she'll step in for him.

Dalton Knecht will get shut down tonight. He has never seen the level of defense that ANT and McDaniel's are going to put on him. You think they are gonna let some "White Boy" shine?

Ant and JMcD will be too busy guarding the other white boy. I am just being sarcastic and not talk about the elephant in the room.

Thanks, Klomp...she is completely unlistenable.

If fans knew what she was like in real life, they would demand someone else for the spot duties.

I’ve seen quite a few national pundits sharing similar views. I think a lot of ppl are underrating Randle as well.

Looks like they’re still killing Towns too. I NY will need him to be the all star that he was. He might need to be 25/10 again for them.

I’m not sure what she’s like in real life would matter in terms of quality of the broadcast…

Well...I did say she was also unlistenable. Is that not part of the broadcast?

Why so many people hating on Bronny?


His dad got him drafted. Kind of sad this kid is getting this much hate.

We see two passes from Randle already - one to Ant for a open 3 and one interior to Gobert that didn't work but encouraging.

Offense is a mess when Anthony Edwards dribbles the air out of the ball. Can already tell that is going to be annoying all season, he needs to play more off-ball.

If Nickiel can just keep this three point shooting up, he’s going to get a lot of playing time.

You can keep a 100% 3-point shooter on the bench!

(I love the first game of a season)
