It's Bailey vs. Flagg, what else needs to be said?

Me too! I'll be at the season opening double header for my granddaughter's basketball team, but I'll hopefully catch some of the rebroadcast.

Nurkics has really won me over. Can tell rookies are tired lol, both Flagg and Ace don't have their legs under them and introducing Lauri into the mix is throwing off the rhythm the team had in the first two games. They will adjust.

Kind of a dud game. Too many fouls and free throws, and 90 three pointers combined, Ace not playing the second half due to injury. Didn't have any notable standouts though I thought Williams, Sensei and Hendricks were alright. Nurkic may not be a starter but he's a very good backup C. He has some value.

I wonder how much Lauri being back threw off things. It felt a bit more disjointed than the other games.
