Trap game written all over this one.
Really curious to see who will play as yesterday Jrue played 30 minutes, Giannis, Brook and Allen played about 28, 28 and 26 minutes respectively, with everyone else being sub-23.

OKC/LAL is effectively a preliminary play-in game.

It's still a very winnable game for them. OKC has dropped 4 in a row.

First two games of Cavs/Celtics were must-see basketball at the beginning of the season. Hoping for another great game tonight.

The Lakers have Vanderbilt. Should be an easy W.

I got the Cavs over the Celtics, they seem to have got the C's #. Will be a close game though.
