MD putting in work with the title.

Need a win here. Could get ugly if we lose this with the Cavs, Knicks, warriors coming up. Really want to be in the 2-5 seed range come late January.

That was PP. I had missed that part of the story and was confused until he explained it to me. :lol:

Last year we won the opener in Philly and then dropped 6 straight. The first 4 were double digit losses. There was just justifiable panic. Need to avoid anything like that.

Are there any advanced stats that can measure if our bonehead offense makes him move less?

I know you're asking about during the course of the season but the offense last night was very good, I thought plenty of movement. Whether that's measurable I don't know..


Yeah they track it. Game 1 his avg speed on offense was 4.67 mph compared to 3.88 for Brook last year and 4.47 for Myles last year for the Pacers.

I am very curious what the Rangers :lol: look like tonight. There were 3 results that surprised me from Wednesday. One of them was the Jazz beating the brakes off the Clippers, I wasn't surprised the Spurs won but being so dominant surprised me and the last one and frankly the most surprising was this onw. The Hawks were/are a little bit of a dark horse East pick after being so active during the offseason. And the Raptors beating them down on the road and primarily because they got almost 70% on 2's was not something I saw coming.

Moving the start time earlier should mean a full house. Plus home openers are always juiced (it will be Cleveland's home opener when we play them Sunday)

Giannis with shooters that defend around him.... I'm predicting a win.

Could happen again this year easily, at least dropping four straight thanks to the KPJ injury. Must win.

Pretty much need this one if we're gonna clear that 13-7 bar to start the season. Staring down the barrel of a 1-4 start with Cleveland, Knicks, and Warriors on the docket would not be ideal.

Giannis on the injury report with a sprained toe. Expected to play.

Man, I hate our opening schedule. Even have 4 early starts in the next 9 which it feels like we've always kind of had trouble with in the Giannis era. Maybe just my imagination. Finding a way to go 3-2 somehow early would be huge.

Only 3 more hours to get your Gradey Dick jokes in.

115-101 Milwaukee - Giannis is on a FAFO tour this year to reclaim the throne the NBA really doesn't want him to have (in Milwaukee).

During the Feds presser, the NYC prosecutor said the affected teams were the Miami Heat, Charlotte Hornets, and Toronto Rangers.
