On ESPN 2 and 3.

Word has it that Love is playing really well, which is very encouraging to hear.

Tyson Chandler is killing on both ends, maybe he really was just injured the last 2 years

What? Wow, a full game with commentary? What the hell? This is crazy, the NBA is getting pretty big as of late.

That charge was a complete BS call.


Overall, Love didn't play much yet, but I think he's safe on the squad. I was hoping to see Tyreke. Iguodala really impressed me, Westbrook too.

Chandler will be a more important player on this team than Brook Lopez. Guaranteed.

Anybody have any idea why the wolves are trying to sign Anthony Tolliver?

I think the best 10 is

1st team
Chandler/Love/Durant/Iguodala/Westbrook
2nd team
Lopez/Odom(by default)/Granger/Mayo/Rondo

the temptation is to put shooters because everybody is scared of the zone, but more important is creating easy baskets off turnovers and 08 team lived off of defensive pressure in the backcourt, I think we have to take our 4 best backcourt defenders this year too. Billups can be the 11th man and play PG and SG

I thought Love looked a lot slimmer.
