How many folks are planning on watching? I promised myself last season that I was done with pre-season, but I'm sure I'll end up watching.

If Monk plays, I might watch, otherwise nah. But really I probably still won't. All the preseason does is injure MKG, make me believe Zeller can drain threes, and give me unnecessary anxiety over our veterans who aren't playing well, but really just conserving energy.

I'll watch every preseason game I can, but I'm sick in the head.

Cant wait to see if it was worth it for Nic Batum to skip the euro basket to work on this season ! We missed him a lot !!!

I will check the box scores but I don't think I've ever watched a preseason NBA game. Summer league sure. You're hard up. Combine? Of course. The greatest basketball tournament? It's a stretch but I'll admit I watched it.

But preseason? That's barely a step above the WNBA Finals on my list of things to watch. No thanks

I normally don't watch preseason, but I really want to see how Monk looks playing against NBA players.

when did this board become too good to watch preseason games? I remember many pre-seasons we'd be begging for one of our games to be televised, or at least to have a stream worth watching. Now we have our 1st preseason game on NBATV in HD and half the board isn't even interested. I don't even know ya'll any more. [walks away in sadness]

I don't disagree, and I'll be watching, but last pre-season was depressing due to quality of play and the one before was depressing due to MKG injury.

Read on Twitter



I wonder who else will start? Morris isn't available yet, so I'm guessing it will be Jaylen Brown.

Monk will have 4 td's and rush for 1 tonight. Go HORNETS.

I hope Bacon gets good run as well. I still think he could have the better career.
