No KP or Maxi tonight for Dallas. And 2nd night of a b2b. Gonna need a big Luka night or the shooters to be on point, but have a bad feeling about this one. Brown and Tatum might combine for 75 tonight.

Sixers had almost 3 to 1 FTA last game before garbage time. Let's see what the refs try to pull tonight.

Cavs took the Hawks in the 1st meeting in a heart breaker. I think this will probably come down to John Collins getting his game right. Trae and Capela have been playing well; but Collins has been off his past two games with only 12 and 8 points respectively.

No Reddish, no Bogdan, no Hunter, no Dunn.

Gallinari, Huerter, Snell, and Hill will need to contribute. I hope to see more of Okongwu also. He played well against Denver in the last game.

Trae going for many assist and he got Collins going. But Collins picked up a 2nd foul before the end of the 1st and is sitting with 9 points.

Every team has injuries at this point. The Cavs started someone named Dean Wade at PF tonight.

Good game with Cleveland. The Cavs getting balanced scoring and Sexton is balling with 18 points. The Hawks are getting it from mostly four players. Capela, Collins, Huerter, and Trae.

Allen and Capela are having a nice little old school battle down low.

Its pretty clear Luka came in to the season out of shape. It's just so easy for him now, a lot easier than it was to start the year

I love how TNT/ESPN cry about the DNP resting in the past and then they pick on a day with plenty of games a game with one team on a B2B...

Just ditch games with B2B teams for any national games. Easy.
