Most of the names I'm not familiar with but I do recognize Bryce Brown and Fletcher Magee.

The league ... is playing games at three arenas during the quarantine.


This sounds a lot like the Amway will host some of the games.

I think all 3 arenas are at the WWS complex. Haven't seen any indication Amway would be used.

He's not turning that clock back, MCW taking over the role. I'm wondering, when are we going to start seeing teams showing up here? Seems like these hard deadlines have passed and people are still undecided. Has Cliff been approved to coach? I'm ready for some NBA.

He definitely does. I really want to see him bulk up and see how he does. I really do not think we should trade him. He is a smart guy and I think he will start to figure stuff out
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

Yeah, prior to the league shutting down he had a lot of games where he was showing good impact defensively and wasn't rushing things as much offensively. Not always showing up in the stat sheet with pure numbers, but his movements were better and he was reacting quicker.
