Crazy that LeBron made his NBA debut as a rookie when Dunn was 8 months old.

And that's taking in mind Dunn is an 'older' rookie. Tidjane Salaun was two years from being born when Lebron entered the draft.

Going to dinner for my birthday at the Keg in a few, so I'll miss most of the game.

What's the line? Bronny 6+ points? I'd be a career high and people always seem to get those against us.

Here's to another season, fellas. Let's get at it and send these bums back to LA.

Offense looks great, intensity will pick up.

Dunn impacts so many plays on defense.

Even if Dunn shooting is bad he wins 5 possessions back on defense

Beal seems prone to making goofy plays at times.His handle looks a little loose out there.

Last season it would be one pass into a two dribble mid range shot possession. Amazing ball movement so far

Dunn is going to be a work in progress but deserves minutes, we need his defensive activity
