Yet, today, during our Spirit Week, I did it again, and made it till the end. Not sure how and I paid for it, but NBA players should be able to hit open shots. Never understood it.


Its mostly mental from what I understand. But I was always a terrible basketball player, mainly took it took the rim or shot 3s.

Wow that 2nd half was brutle shooting. Very early days and does not mean a lot.
Wanamaker did not look good, but early days. Hope we don't regret not signing Larkin.

All of Semi's shots were wide open. :nonono:

No one got hurt. Irving, Hayward and Theis all looked solid physically.

That's a win in my books.

Brad’s got a goldmine of film to work with now.

Dozier’s last possession was one of the worst looking things I’ve seen a professional basketball player do.

Lemonade!

Does anyone else think Hayward, Kyrie, Brown and to a lesser, more performance based extent, Tatum, played too many minutes for preseason?

Wannamaker & Semi were especially bad tonight. Everybody else did at least one good thing. Both of them did all bad things

He was busy throwing darts at his Baynes poster on the ceiling and trying to figure out how to work his way around Baynes' restraining order.

Brad said he was impressed by Yabs, I just don't see it. He looks like the same player he was as a rookie. I wonder if Wannermaker is going to look better then Lemon this preseason, I thought he would be the third ball handler.

15th spot is still open...........

I forgot to mention I was about to collapse halfway through and was wishing kids would miss or knock me out. I even tossed a couple off the backboard hoping. One even went in by accident haha. Greatest thing though is a freshman who was probably under 5’ tall ended up winning. Kid was unbelievable. He’d be a good 15th spot player.
