Mavs definitely got a lot of talent. Dinwiddie isn't a part of that though.

A CP3 flop to start this one off. Basketball is back.

Spurs have some good wing size now after years of midget ball on the wing.

20 years ago Spurs/Mavs was the best rivalry in the league. Hope it gets back to that level again with Wemby and Luka.

I like how they are moving Wemby around so far. There is a lot of man/ball movement for San Antonio early. Much different than a season ago.

Wemby playing a bit soft. Needs to step the intensity up

Spurs would run a set for Wemby where he’d use a cross screen on the weak side block to either flash to the ball side block or free throw line. It was very effective but haven’t seen it this preseason.

Wizards playing competitive so far. Lot of activity and all three rookies have already played.

The Celtics are going to be in deep doo-doo when they play the Magic.

Love Stephon Castle. The fact that as a rookie he can at least wall up a magician like Kyrie.
