Yes, just Prime. No other networks are showing games.They're showing 66gms this year and it'll probably be the same situation as tonight

I get the idea behind giving Flagg burn at PG, Kidd did it with Giannis, but it isn't going to help you win games.

The bigger issue is that Nico didn't think they'd need a real point guard? They had all offseason to do something and they signed DLo :noway:

Dylan 7-0 run.

Initiated a Spurs 13-0 run *while Wemby rests*

Can't overstate what a change that is and how needed.

I admit i havent watched the game but how can an undersized Pels squad hold Wemby when a taller bigger Mavs team couldnt?

Spurs shooters are mastering the art of the in-and-out shot from 3. Good lord.

Castle got the memo. Just lob that sh#% anywhere near the rim and Wemby will score it.

Chuck Everett wrote:Kind of interesting that Jason Kidd is really willing to punt on these early games for some mad-scientist ****. Just put PJ Washington on the bench to start the game and play another guard who can handle the ball with AD, Flagg, Lively and Klay.

It wouldn’t be much different…Cooper needs to be the screener to really be effective imo at this point in his careers

They’d have to move AD to center which he’d hate
