I only watched the first 20 min of the Clips/Lakers last nigh....even though the Clips were up a bit they just mostly looked to be playing like it was an all-star game.

They are going to have to make defense a priority and I would think Doc Rivers would've had more of a defensive look even though it was opening night.

Philly may win 17, but they will win under 25.

Definitely a top 3 lottery team.

No way. They got nothing. I'd say closer to the 16 than 26.

Michael Carter-Williams, 19 pts, 10 assists, 8 steals, 4 rebounds thus far in his first game. Not too shabby...

Turner and MCW leading the team in FG attempts (along with Thad). Exactly why they win 20 games...gonna be some ugly shot lines with those guys.

If this goes to OT, MCW seriously might have a quadruple-double in his first ever game...anyone watching this craziness?

Final line...Philadelphia 114, Miami 110.

22 points
12 assists
9 steals
7 rebounds

Probably the greatest NBA debut ever.

Just ridiculous by MCW. Lol at the Heat. Always fun seeing them lose.

Who are your five teams? And God I hope not Boston. Their line-up outside of Rondo is atrocious.

No I"m staying away from the big market teams for the most part, because they'll be on primetime a lot.

Cavs
Pistons
Trail Blazers
Gun Shot Wounds
Indiana

Doubt that, but definitely a great debut. Oscar had a triple double in his first game.

Had to laugh at this final. Haerd it on ESPN the minute I was reading why the odds for the Sixers to win it all was 9999-1. They said it woulda been worse but they cannot go over 4 digits!

Im going:

Indiana (Favorite team)
GSW (Obvious reasons)
Orlando (Oladipo)
Hornets (Brian Roberts is from Toledo, and I got to play with him growing up a lot..and Eric Gordon)

I havent decided on my 5th. It would be Cavs, but I will get all their games on FSN. Debating between Portland, Memphis, Denver and OKC (even though they will be on PrimeTime a lot).

Your home market team is blacked out for all games, just a reminder.

Cavs are. Which is why I'm not taking them...

Unless you mean someone else, I think you misread my post.

I'm calling it here right now... Lebron finally rapes, murders, ODs, molests, assaults, drives drunk, steals or lies this year. You know hes gonna do it, its just a matter of when.
