Hardly have any time.

What are the things to watch in these games?

I usually have preseason games more as background noise.

I don't plan to watch them live either, just highlights and maybe catch few periods, last year I watched every one, and boy were they bad at predicting the start of the season.
Main thing for me to watch is Josh Green, whether the hype is real or not.

You've read this I take it?

Kind of sad that the Mavs haven't been able to somehow find a second guy. And even lost Brunson. It's ground-hog day every season it feels like. I am looking forward to seeing Hardaway back from injury and Wood.

Well, 2nd guys isnt really found, so dont see how it can be sad when it was completly unrealistic that they would find 1 this year.

Im kinda excited, and gonna work the night between thursday and friday so will be up, so if i dont forget it i will watch.

To watch is woods bodylanguage, looked good in the fan jam. Also green and hardy. Hardy feels like a guy that got something to prove and had some nice lukalike passes in the fanjam. Dont think the okc game will tell us much, too bad quality

What I'm watching for is the Luka and Wood chemistry particularly on the PnR/PnP. So far we've only seen them face each other so this might be the 1st time we see them play together. It's been raved about quite a bit of how good it can be on paper. I want to see it in action even if its just a preseason game.

I have understood that Luka is not playing this game. Bertans and McGee are out.

Thats sad, but it will give kidd some time to see the other guys more before going to the other stuff like whp fits in what rotation in later games.

And thode 3 are so obvious what they bring

I still hope Luka might persuade Kidd to play him 20 minutes, he just enjoys playing games.

I’m interested to see how Hardy and Woods play together off the bench.

Lot of players out. It's preseason but our 1st look at a game without Luka (and Brunson).

Feels weird when so many are out tbh. And dobt think dfs and bullock played in 2nd half. Its like wood and a bunch of players that will get rotation minutes but not every game
