Should be a win by Philly. Miami just isn’t the same as last year.

"Hornets seek 5 straight"

Hornets fans in shambles as they can't outank Detroit.

Lot of pressure on the Celtics because Bucks haven't lost in ages and if the C's lose a game they are no longer in sole possession of 1st place.

Jaylen is out tonight. I think the teams are healthy aside from that. Knicks are playing well. Should be a good one.

Charlotte is +.500 with everyone healthy, just got murdered by the injury bug this year

Thankfully it seems we are locked into 4th worst unless something ridiculous happens

Hornets and 76ers should win...

Knicks and celtics is up for grabs with brown out...

Underachieving pelicans VS overrated magic...should be a good game.

I picked CHA, PHL, BOS, and NOLA

Charlotte is actually playing really nice offensive basketball for what it is worth.

Miami is a wild card this year, they show up with Herro or Butler once every few games but its bench is just inconsistent. I don't think PHL is going to want the taste of two losses to PO opponents so they get it done tonight.

Knicks and BOS looks to be the best game on paper tonight but I'll also be watching ORL NOLA for all the talent that is up and coming.
Cheers

Wiseman already making the trade look dumb.

Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

These Heat jerseys take me back to being a kid collecting basketball cards wondering why there was a player named Bimbo.

Wiseman has some horrendous defense. I think the best he can hope for now is a Christian Wood type career.

Probably had more to do with the FRP that is very likely to convey this spring than Cam Reddish :dontknow:
