Mavs have won 14 of the last 16 against the Spurs. It was 14 of 15 until the post Luka trade game last season. If any team is happy Luka is out of Dallas it's the Spurs

I like that the Inside aesthetic is the mostly the same, and it doesn't seem like ESPN has coached/directed them in any way.

And they still kept the theme song! If anything, it feels like none of the graphics really changed other from TNT being replaced with ESPN. And I'm cool with that btw.

Weird seeing Inside the NBA on ESPN.

Even weirder seeing quality programing in general on ESPN.

I am looking forward to seeing how much of a factor Mobley is for Cleveland and how the Charlotte Hornets roster does.

Cavs are down Garland, Hunter, and Strus. Should be a good test of their depth.

Heat wings are solid. Their production much more relevant than the Ware hype for their season

Miles McBride is a keeper for the Knicks if they can make it happen. Do you like any of the bench players?
