Two teams enter, one leaves with a loss.

Thunder on a b2b which deafeated the Bulls in CHI (Who were on the second game of a road-away b2b themselves) and now have the same challenge with the Hawks.

Gonna skip the first two games for sure. This is a good test for the new-look Hawks. Bogdanovic needs to be playing though. They need his offense.

Dyson Daniels wants to reclaim his best player in the association crown from SGA, fam !

[UcanUwill]

For those who turned the clock to winter time, remember that mericans always do it two weeks later, so from today, for two weeks, games are 1 hour earlier.

Kawhi was a bad influence on Paul George missing games who in turn is a bad influence on Joel Embiid missing games

Not only Bogi but also Hunter...

The disrespect for the Clippers is uncalled for.

Clearly there are zero championship banners but that can be said for so many other teams in the nba.

They had a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter vs a healthy Suns team in the season opener but imploded at the end with consecutive turn overs. Eventually losing by 3 in overtime.

They beat a healthy Nuggets team yesterday on the road. They went like 4-1 or 5-1 in pre season, which displayed their smothering defense.

They added some athletic pieces who are long and defensive minded like Jones Jr , Dunn, KPJ , Kai Jones and Nic Batum.

Regardless of all the hate for James Harden , he now has the green light to be the floor general. 24 pts and 16 assists yesterday is not bad for a washed up star who just 4-5 years ago recorded insane season averages.

With this said , I’ll take the win today on the road in a back 2 back vs Warriors.

Cavs currently 1st in the East via point differential. They blew out and the Wizards last night while the Celtics had to put the Pistons away late. Lakers only 3-0 team in the West going into today.

Philadelphia actually looks good without George and Embiid.

[Liam_Gallagher]

The Sixers still look impressive without their two best guys. However, Yabusele looks like trash after his Olympics stint.

[Pacernation]

I read that the NBA want's to ref the game like in Fiba but I see lot's of bullsh*t fouls in this game (on both sides). Just let them play!

[DaGawd]

this 6ers pacers game is ass

[Johnny Tomala]

76ers, Bucks, Pelicans, Thunder, Warriors.

[GeorgeSears]

Embiid and PG resting for the playoffs sounds good until you realize they actually have to make the playoffs first. Which means actually winning games.

[cjx]

Embiid and Paul George want to retire at the end of the year, Embiid's retirement plan is to join the Podcast P team, it is what it is

[Riot Randolph]

Nesmith asking for early retirement with drives landing on one leg…

[BadWolf]

These challenges are killing my interest for the game.

[Tracymcgoaty]

AHAH if there ever was a bail out call...

[Dubious Handles]

These last 20 minutes (maybe 2minutes of playing time?) have felt like an eternity holy ****
