No Blake or Aldridge.

Barnes was limited in practice yesterday, so I'm not sure if he goes or not.

Batum passed all his concussion tests, so he should play.

Crawford is a healthy scratch tonight. Green will be a healthy scratch in Vegas.

Offense looks ugly so far, but Dudley has missed shots he'll make 3/4 times if that open

I like the little misdirection and fake screen and roll going right, then the other big man comes from the left and they run pick and roll, just gets a bit more movement there and doesn't telegraph the play. If the defense reads it, then next time you actually run that first pick and roll then they can't just play for the second because the play has two options.

DJ's free-throw shooting in the first 2 games appears to be a mirage.

This delay of game warning/tech is a little frustrating.

These delay of games are really annoying , sometimes the ball just comes to you, what are you supposed to do? It's annoying, but players will get used to it.

Teams should have done it in practice

Agreed. It's a habit that will take a little while to break.

Could you imagine a scenario similar to Ray Allen hitting that three to tie the game and a Heat player touches the ball after it goes through the cylinder? San Antonio goes to the line to shoot a technical. That would be heartbreaking. I don't think I'm going to like this new rule.
