Ruma, sorry if I stepped on your toes making the thread today. I think it's your day to do it but I wasn't positive. And then I wasn't sure if you were around to make it, or waiting for NBA to tweet the schedule, or I dunno lol. Anyway... it's done haha.

From the "Starting 5" email NBA.com sends me in the mornings. You can subscribe to it on the website if you want (link up top): https://www.nba.com/news/starting-5-feb-10-2025

I'm thinking you were pumped to make the thread today since Luka and everything. If you want to post yours I can take mine down or whatever. Got confused and have to leave the house in a minute so I just busted it out really quick.

ESPN picked up this Utah / Los Angeles game quick as can be to add to the National TV schedule. Mondays are usually NCAA basketball days "Big Monday" on the 'ole ESPN. Here's our prime example with the influence that the Lakers have on our least favorite broadcaster. So thirsty for that LeBron and Luka game.
Cheers

Luka has been upgraded to probable.

Lebron and Dalton Knecht probable as well. I forgot about that rescinded trade for a minute haha.

I don't know who's watching Celtics Heat tonight aside from me but Wiggins, Kyle Anderson and Davion Mitchell are expected to debut for Miami. Update: Jaquez and Herro are now out, both with a stomach illness.

Meanwhile it seems like the C's may be resting guys. Jrue is out and Tatum and Brown are both questionable. Our new acquisition Torrey Craig is out too. Update: Tatum will play. Brown and Holiday out.

Gonna be crazy to see Luka in the purple & gold. Hope he drops 50 and screams at the cameras the whole time after every bucket.

Wolves Cavs definitely game of the night if Edwards plays.

Then POR DEN.

I will probably sleep for the Lakers game.

I'll definitely be watching, probably with some other dubs fans. Wiggins is really well liked amongst Warrior fans, and I'm glad he is with a tier 1 coach like Spo.

Also got a laugh out of "Kuzma and the Bucks" :wink:

Kind of weird to spin this negatively. It's a game that every fan wants to see, and now it's on national television.

I remember being very excited to see Iverson and Carmelo for the first time. This feels similar.
