LaMelo should improve and they added Oubre and lost Graham.

The Bulls starters are very good, but they may lack some depth.

Charlotte crushed them though. 30 for Miles. Oubre went off too. Maybe they are going to good this year. Lamelo looks the part.

I wouldn’t mind this, since it would in-incinerate the pick Charlotte owes us.

But what’s true is this going to be a very topsy turvy season. I guess it looks like a traditional season somewhat. The Nets and Bucks look like typical favorites. Phoenix and Denver should be too.

But overall this feels like a much higher variance year.

OKC has a roster filled with people I have never heard of. Vit Krejci? Gabriel Deck? At least they have old WOW favorite Mike Muscala.

Crazy game btw DC and IND. Dinwiddie went off with Beal out. Bertans helped. That’s a good win.

Mobley had a good game for a rookie. He looks NBA ready. Charlotte crushed them though. 30 for Miles. Oubre went off too. Maybe they are going to good this year. Lamelo looks the part.

Davion went 1-8 but had 4 steals and 4 assists with no turnovers. Tyrese had a solid line but had the worst plus minus on the squad.

I love having the NBA back

cybersoze:
How did you daughter game go, Z-Man? I hope it went well.

Thanks cyber, her team swept their opponent 3-0 and she played great! I kept checking the knicks score and loved that too! Then a friend texted lol Celtics! Then I got pretty hammered in a great upstate ny town!

A banner evening in Z-manLand!

I’m here wondering who will be starting when both are healthy. LOL

Early Bird: It’s 2 games.

Wait, what are you saying, Bird? Are you saying that we can’t predict all season with a sample of 2 games? LOLOL

We won both. This one in a landslide. It’s too early to say anything is a problem.

Kemba has a strong track record, even last year post-knee implosion. Let’s see where he is in a couple more games. Just enjoy the wins for now.

Rose is a frontrunner for 6th man. He enjoys his bench role. He’s not the best point of comparison.

He had 12 points on 8 FGA and 7 assists, 0 turnovers in 24 minutes. He’s shooting the three with real confidence, his form is looking really good on that shot. Really all Kemba needs to do is battle the PG position to a relative draw, just don’t be a black hole, then let Rose come in and wreck the opposing team’s second unit.
