    I found it, but they have only released one episode so far.

    Pretty hyped for the season, I just told my son I would take him to a game this year!

    still a couple weeks out and I never thought I would be watching pre season basketball in 3 decades but here I am! I assume it will take some time for these guys to play together but it will be fun to watch it transpire. I am most excited not to see Karl’s constant complaining.

    this was a great deal by TC and he has earned every penny since he was hired by Arod’s group. making trades in todays NBA is crazy! not only do they need to match salaries but there are so many implications with teams in the second apron of the tax. it took a week to crunch all the numbers to make this trade official due to all the money changing places. I did not think a GM was worth the extra cash they gave him but man was I wrong. it would be nice to get the ownership resolution resolved before the season but highly unlikely at this point?

    Rough start. Turnover city and can’t find a rebound. Hope they come out strong in the second half.

    This trash is worse than even I expected. About the only silver lining is the Knicks looking just as bad. Hopefully this game doesn’t turn into the clown show that one did.

    Yay, we get to be on somebody else’s trivia question again…

    Woof, that was a sloppy first half. Just ugly! Don’t say this often but Naz is having a terrible game so far. Lots of blame to go around though.

    Last night was a perfect example of why so many don’t watch regular season games. Lazy, overpaid glory hounds trying to make the highlight reel.

    Ha I did too! Way too late for my old A$$ I guess? The whole team looked like trash. I imagine it will take a few weeks together to see how the pieces fit. I did see Big Ru restructured his contract last night and freed up $16 mill for next season, probably to extend Naz?

    Next up Sacramento and another late one sad

    Wolves win on Ant free throws. I found the channel they were on just in time to see how the last minute went down.

    So are they ever going to let this Rookie PG play?

    ^They appear to be giving him the “Dallas Turner” Treatment…aka drafting him high and having him not crack the lineup.

    I don’t think it was expected that Dillingham would be a big contributor right away, if even this season, especially now that they got Divincenzo.

    It was a nice response last night in Sacramento. And actually a really hard fought game by both sides. Pretty intense for game 2, nice to get that W.

    Maybe it’s the Jordan Love treatment. Drafting him and letting him learn.
    Creating depth at an important position.

    LeBron James kid played like 1 minute the other night and it was just for show. Probably a similar reason they are sitting Dillingham thus far . I hope he gets in somewhat soon though.

    They said that Bronny was thrown in the game to get the media off their back about it so this did not become some distraction. As far as Dillingham, he will get minutes once Finchy feels he is ready. Finch has never had a history of giving his rookies much playing time. This is a super deep roster by NBA standards so not really unexpected. Maybe if they get some comfortable leads, we will see more of the other guys. Good win last night and a nice bounce back by Randle. Not bad to be able to throw in 30 plus in your 2nd game with a new team. If they are 15-5 or 14-6 after 20 games, I consider that a great start.

    Divincenzo looks like a good player, however.

    Capt? You been drinking tonight? smile

    Nice win for home opener. Got a little sloppy at times, but also looked really good at times. Hopefully they continue to gel.
