    Use a VPN. It’s about $3 a month and you won’t be blacked out on your computer.

    But isn't that illegal? @SlyPokerDog should we allow this type of info to be passed around here on our rule following site?

    I see no problem with how King used the term blackened.

    No. VPNs are legal.

    without fans, at least the cameras will be focused on the players rather than some random fan shot in the stands during a play.

    Depends. If you use a VPN to do something that wouldn't be legal without an VPN then it is illegal.

    Man, am I looking forward to Thursday’s scrimmage. Finally hoops instead of all the politics and pandemic crapola. I can’t wait to see how Terry makes use of the new huge lineup.

    Man, you're right. If it wasn't for arguing, this place would be an empty cavern.

    He has a long career of going small when it counts. Sitting Nurk and Hassan during crucial moments only to give up an easy bucket because we had no rim protector. I hope the array of options forces him to do otherwise though.

    I know unemployment is up but what's with the timing of these weekday games? Who can watch this?

    See, I think we will always see a rim protector in there now. Nurk or Hassan at all times. I think we will also have pretty good weak side shot blocking help from Zach at least 20 minutes a game. I think if Melo isn't up to defending the perimeter we might start seeing a lot of Nas, based on the fact that he has supposedly improved his three point shooting a lot. Obviously GTJ is going to be in a lot defending. I think we have a lot of really good defenders and then there's the fact that we probably have the most potent and versatile offense in the league with Nurk back and the growth I think we'll see out of Nas and GTJ. We obviously have two of the most gifted scoring guards in the game right now in Dame and CJ and then one of the greatest offensive threats of this era... or maybe the last era in Melo. Ant is an instant offense spark plug. I'm really excited to see Zach's offense too, from cleaning up down low, to post moves, to an extended jumper. We are going to score a ton of points and I think we'll do a good job of limiting the points of our opponents. Oh and Stotts has never had a chance to sit both Nurk and Hassan at the same time. Nurk has been recovering the entire time we've had Hassan.

    22 teams. 3 arenas. If they only play at night, they won't finish til January. Look at it like March Madness. They have more arenas and that plays during the day.
