Excited for Lakers/Wolves. Can't wait to see Luka, LeBron, and Edwards going at it!

Cavs fell in love with playing out in the primeter?

Also is it easier to mask the Celtucs rebounding issues on long misses vs traditional offense

Desmond Bane joins the magic. He is now shooting 25% from 3.

It's hard being a magic fan.

Kenny Arkinson’s hair gel use is out of control.

I have some crow in the smoker; I really liked Jalen Smith last year and wanted him to break out this year. He's been the worst player on the court in the minutes I've seen from him this year.

Do my Pacers even need our 8 injured players?

We now have McClung. Dude jumps over cars.

A new era has begun.

Signing McClung shows they have no interest in tanking this season .

I don't think we planned on it. We could be pretty good, with just Haliburton out.

Right now we got no chance with so many guys out. Some are out for a month.

Close, this is his 9th possible season, only 7th because he missed two years.
