I'm conflicted to watch tonight's game. I hate both the Lakers and the Nuggets, especially after this year's NBA Finals. So I don't necessarily care to see all the ra-ra with the ring ceremony in Denver

Suns and Warriors I don't necessarily ~mind~ watching but dang, I can't wait until tomorrow's Heat game

I hope the Timberwolves don't suck

15 years ago, 20-16 would be an "end of 1st quarter" score, particularly on opening night when teams aren't at their best cohesively. That's the score midway through the 1st in this Lakers @ Nuggets game.

No time's been added to the clock, but two things have determined this:
- Offense is catered to more than defense in the modern-day
- Stephen Curry changed the game with the 3-point shot

Timberwolves vs. Raptors tonight

Hopefully Minnesota can pull away with a good victory here.

The only person who can stop Wemby is Wemby with 5 fouls this game lol... he's hitting 3-pointers in front of defenders like he's wide open.

And without using up another post, I'm so glad Miami snuck by the Pistons, who I touted a surprise playoff team coming into this season. Cade Cunningham looks like he made the jump.

Are you from NC or are you the only 2nd person I know who is a Hornets fan outside of the Carolinas? haha
I live in South Carolina technically but on the North Carolina border.

I live in Gaffney.
I know where that is!! I stop there everytime when my family goes vacationing in Georgia, that's awesome!


and on the NBA note, I absolutely hate Portland. Watching Dame hit that dagger and score 39 points in his Bucks debut was another level of hurt.

Timberwolves went 10/14 in 3-point shooting in the First Quarter against the Hawks. God dayum!

Covington the former Sixers helps us in the Three Department and provides some Defense but not liking losing 2 Starters for Scraps. Granted the Value of Harden was so low this was going to happen.
