Scottie Barnes final statline. Not too shabby.

13 points
9 rebounds
6 assists
3 steals
2 blocks

6-10 from the field.

Easily could’ve had couple more assists but scrubs couldn’t hit their open shots. When he’s playing alongside the actual rotation players, he’s gonna have it so much easier

Giddey is special. Still a long way to go but he's 18 years old.

camera work in this jazz spurs game is hilarious, flashing to the mascot every other play, replays over game action, but it is free

I want to watch the spurs game to see Joshua Primo but hard to watch this highschool level broadcast.

So I think the obvious early question so far is, do the Nets and Bucks need 1 more star to complete with Minnesota in the finals matchup

I would be so embarrassed to be a Celtics fan fight now. They are freaking out about beating the Magic who put their Exhibit 10 players in for the last 4 minutes while the Celtics are playing their real players.

Jazz can't run an offense without Rudy Gobert. It's like they don't know how.

Primo has yet to play. Maybe end of 3rd or in the 4th. Pop said everyone would play.

Nah when the Celtics try they usually smash our team. To the point they run iso Tacko at the end of our RS games. I wouldn't put too much stock on this performance.

If you watched the game he clearly didn't. Had a stretch where he missed 4 easy shots in a row/took tough shots but played good defense, showed extreme range on the three, hustled, made good passes. Rookie mistakes will definitely happen and going against Marcus Smart/Robert Williams is a good first welcoming.

Annoying fans aside, that was an extremely fun first pre-season game (talking about the C's vs. the Magic). Both teams were out there playing like it was a meaningful end-of-the-season kind of game. I think having a full stadium added a ton of eneregy to this game. Both teams have a lot of work to do, but they both played with a ton of energy that you usually don't see this early.
