Did ESPN change the order of their box scores this season? I could have sworn PTS were always on the far right. I’ve been confused like 10 times this season trying to look at box scores. The order had to have changed :lol:

Also... Nico can't stop catching strays :lol:

Luka Doncic now has more 40-point games (4) than the Mavericks have wins (3)

Two wins at Minnesota, a team that swept them last year. These boys look great this year.

Minnesota's clearly worse this year though so if's a two-way elevator

agreed but something seems off with Minny this year, they are 0-5 against lakers/nuggets/knicks, and 8-0 against the trash teams

Getting rid of MPJ was the best FO decision Denver has made since their championship. They needed to get rid of Murray or MPJ to free up cap space to add a bench. They can only absorb 1 of their Max guys having a off game (Like Murray tonight) and when both of them are off its almost a guranteed loss.

Jokic is not required to have a great game. Looks like his supporting cast (besides Strawther) can do some damage.

Wolves have gone from having like the 19th best PG rotation a couple years ago when they acquired Conley to about the 28th best PG rotation in the league now that Conley is washed

Yeah, I was using Google — which I think is using ESPN's api to pull the scores — and the rebounding numbers were looking wild. :lol:

Luka and AR with 20+ rebounds!?

They started last season slowly too
Wouldn't be too worried about The Wolves, they would decent against the clear cut 2nd favourites for the chip for 3 and a half quarters.

yeah i was wondering cause Ant is playing like his usual self and Randle is playing as good as he ever has but the team seems underwhelming. you guys would be much better off benching conley and going to the playmaker by committee strategy like what Houston is doing, with Randle playing in the Sengun role.

What if OKC offered their Clippers pick this year, plus a couple of future firsts and Ajay Mitchell for Giannis ?

Who could beat that package ???

What the hell was the ref doing there? Giannis stepping in and giving the ball to the Lakers rookie.
