    Really liking Jonathon Isaac from Orlando, 6th pick in the draft. Reminds of a Durant light. Very fluid player, good handles and a sweet shooting stroke. Magic may have finally found a good one. Too bad he's in Orlando.

    Kings and the Lakers game was the worst NBA game I have seen in a long time.

    Crabbe with 14 points in 10 minutes. Jack, in his (can you believe it?) 13th season, started for the Knicks.

    It is a little ironic that you can't see the actual Around the NBA October thread (which has plenty of posts in it) because you are ignoring HCP.

    I know why I make so many jokes about your looks . If I trimmed my facial hair and wore those glasses we'd look almost identical

    This season, on paper, yes. But it's the start of the season, and Melbourne has changed half their roster, so we'll find out. They came 6th out of 8 teams last season, but the NBL is a very even league, and any team can beat anyone on any given night.

    To further put it in context, the NBL has a $1,100,00 AUD ($855,000 USD) soft cap. They don't publish player salaries, but teams don't go greatly over. In addition, teams are only allowed to have 3 non Australian/NZ players.

    I'm happy that Melbourne lost, but find it funny that OKC had to play their stars so much to get it done.

    Ferguson sums up my feelings about Melbourne.

    Good for AC. Wish him luck in BKN. He is a good shooter and he moves on offense. He will have a long career at this league.

    Trade machine has their combined salaries at 37.5 million! Tough to make that work for both sides.
