I assumed the Prime double header was on Prime worldwide but I guess I don't really know.

You guys get Prime in France? Or you'd watch those games on international league pass over there?

(just curious)

Or 2 and 8, really.

It's a pretty crazy number, even given the silly sample size.

Refuse to subscribe to Prime. Ill get the free 30 day trial in December after looking at their game schedule. I got League Pass for the first time, I'm good.

20 FTA per game is insane, but I find it weird when people use that a diss, you may not like it, but drawing fouls is a skill... Reminds me of that BIg Woz guy who says load management is stupid cause everyone does it... Oh, it is stupid cause you do not like it anymore? Yeah, it is stupid so thats why everyone does it...

Watch the calls that SGA gets and then watch what doesn’t get called when Dort (and OKC in general) plays defense.
That’s not skill.
That’s the referees picking winners.
