Just gonna enjoy magic basketball being back and being in Puerto Rico. So cool. I hope we can see a glimpse of the impact bane & t.jones can make. That's the main thing I'm looking for. Go magic

Excited to watch the beginning of the game especially being played in PR. I'll be watching Bane's dynamic with the Wagner and Banchero and what Tyus brings off the bench. This is of course assuming Suggs and Jase aren't playing.

This is I think Miami’s 7th visit to Puerto Rico. Our first. Will be interesting to see how outnumbered in the stands we’ll be.

I expect to see Robinson, Cain, and the exhibit 10 guys to play a lot.

I’ll be curious to see how much our 3 EuroBasket guys play.

We’ve got a full 5 days off before we play in Philly, so I expect a lot of spread out minutes and lineup experimentation.

I thought Miami would be a playoff team before Herro got injured. I still think theyll be decent.

Dont know if thatll be in evidence tonight. Too early.

East is just painfully mediocre without serious contender. Probably worst East has been since 2002 and Lebron era.
Among Raptors, Hawks, whatever is left from Celtics, Bulls, Heat, leftovers of Pacers, crippled 76ers, painfully bad constructed Bucks, very overrated Pistons, somebody will end up with home court advantage by accident. But hopefully some among them are smart enough to throw white tovel on a season early on.

On top of that Hornets, Nets, Wizards are bound to suck. East vs West record will be hilarious. Probably biggest margin of wooping in history of a league.

Nets have legit chance at setting worst record ever. That team is gutted and filled with kids that aren't even that talented.

FFS Pepe, you said the same thing last year and the Pacers took the Thunder to 7 and might have won but for the Hali injury.

Sure the West overall is stronger but can we stop this stupid "why even bother" act with the east when only last season an untouted east team proved extremely competitive.

No reason why this year wont be the same.

Nah I get it. It's just funny how it's worded when the other literally did the same thing.

Curious to see where Jett fits in the rotation.

I'm thinking that Tyus stars if either Bane or Suggs is out and TDS starts is either Paolo or Franz is out
