Saw it was on ESPN3 and kinda surprised it worked... I'm sure it won't in the regular season.

Not exactly quality basketball being played so far.

Kai has good energy though.

Kai will definitely get burn this season, he is very active on defense and the boards. Plus he took the ball coast to coast and should have had a dunk but got fouled.

This is practically a hornets home game.

Between the fans liking Gelo and the commentary being pretty pro-hornets with Steph.

Bad shot by Kai, too predictable. Needs to be cutting and be more a threat inside first.

Also nice move by Richards.

What is that like 5 offensive rebounds for Kai so far?
