Seems like the excitement for the bubble has died down quite a bit. Think we over did it with the exhibition games.

Some of it has to do with the competition level. Not a lot of interest in 20 point blow outs like the Pacers vs Suns game.

I expected more people to tune in for the Knicks and clippers game which was pretty close until the last 5 mins. More people watched the Suns game lol

I think we should chill with the exhibitions and focus on the bubble for now.

Its also late Friday night. There is a good reason east coast fans complain about their teams taking west coast trips.

Fine. I’ll take Sexton for Cap space. Send to Bish.

I have a spot on my bench for him. He would be a solid 6th man for the Pacers.

My take aways from tonight's game:
Killian looks like a tall pass 1st point guard; who has some solid defensive upside. Bey looks good defensively and has a great shooting stroke. Bagley is a nice surprise off the bench and our best bench scorer. I am glad I made that trade. Nunn can play major minutes.

I am probably one to two years away from Killian and Bey having big impacts ( 80+ ). Bagley could be special off the bench this season.

Man I really tried to stay awake for this one but I had a long day, and fell asleep in the first quarter. Sounds like it was a great game.

Congrats to Indy and LAC for advancing to the 2nd round!

Is GSW posturing for a big move? It looks that way.

i returned my copy of 2k22.

there are way too many bugs and problems. roster editing, saving, and using doesn't work at all (my whole reason for getting it).


sorry, guys. stuck with 2k20. i'm going to give it a while until i try it again. i don't expect 2k to fix things, but i hope they do.
RIP, magnumt '19
