I'm liking how they're playing, but yeah... I guess, it's the first game of the preseason, time to get the fans pumped.


Oh I get the tactic. Just funny to hear.

Really liking what Lonzo is doing.

Okay I can’t be the only one bothered by how he’s saying his name. He keeps saying MOB-LEE and it’s bothering the hell out of me. Had this guy never watched Cutino Mobley?


And not like he was a top 3 player just drafted in the Sport you commentate for!

Man, if OKC didnt move Sengun they would have one of my favorite young cores in the league.

G - Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
G - 2022 FRP
F - Josh Giddey
F - Aleksej Pokusevski
C - Alpern Sengun

I think that could have become something special. Sengun really does look like the realest of real deals. Looks like something between Gasol and Scola out there tonight. With the lower base of Yao Ming lol.

The guy's floor is so high. He might not be a star, but his chances of being a starting C in the league is so damn high.

Ball and Caruso look like a terror on defense in the backcourt. Damn.

Holy crap do the Bulls look good. Defensively active, ball moves around super fast, everyone moving off the ball, everyone making shots.

At the least they're gonna be fun as hell to watch. This might be a top 5 seed team in the east though.

The Cavs looking like garbage again. SMH, when is Coby Altman going to be fired?
Who in their right mind thinks 2 small guards will do anything in this league? On top of that they have like 4 PF/C's that are vying for minutes.

I thought I had moved on from losing Caruso. Tonight makes it clear the wound is still alive and well. SMH
