I'm assuming this won't be on TV? Pretty stoked for some basketball.

What are everyone's expectations and predictions for tonight? Anything in particular some of you will be paying close attention to?

Bouk, Cody, Theo, leaky, kai are all out.

my prediction is that Miller will shoot less than 40% and everyone will freak out about it

After a meh SL where Bryce struggled trying to be "the man" I'm interested to see how he does in a role more suited for him

Bryce downgraded to out

We already have 5 guards/wings injured. Lol. Luckily they are 8th to 15th type role players and depth

Lol well damn. Guess I'll just watch for Miller and to hope for no injuries.

Clifford might be the only HC in the league who would bring the #2 overall pick off the bench.

Exum with 13pts, 9 assts, 2 blocks shooting 80%, would've been nice.

Williams is going to block a lot of fools this year. I can see him dealing with foul trouble though as refs wont respect him
