    Mark Williams looks pretty damn good for Charlotte. He might have a breakout season in year 2.

    Tyus Jones is honestly destroying the Pacers this is a good show he's putting on in the opener.

    Its cool to see both Tyus and Tre Jones as starters this season, but for me, give me Tyus over Tre all day everyday.. Tyus is still the sharper offensive weapon..

    I mean that is one hell of a starting lineup...

    Porzingis
    Tatum
    Brown
    White
    Holiday

    my goodness, the blazers helped create that monster hahaha but we got paid off n were in the west, so its whatever..... Porzingis is having his revenge on the Knicks right now though.. 15 points early..

    Interested to see how the Max Strus Cavaliers era goes too... He's tough as nails n last years team, man they went out with a whimper..

    Cavs got BRUTALLY bounced by the Knicks out of the playoffs... U know they gotta be focused going into this season, cuz that was a complete embarassment especially for Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley, that bigmoney frontcourt kinda got punked by Mitchell Robinson n Julius Randle..

    Teams are just so much better these days... especially the bad teams...

    like back when the 76ers were tanking for Simmons and Embiid --- the bad teams in the NBA were so much worse back then... like when the sixers won 10 games in '15-'16, that team was putrid compared to the worst team in the league these days -- not even close..

    the bad teams in the NBA are all kinda loaded these days if u ask me...


    why I kinda get angry with some fans, cuz if u ask me these NBA teams are all sort of like all-star teams..

    3 blocks in the 1st quarter for Ausar Thompson(detroit)p


    I'm guessing people have a sort of Scoot vs (insert a thompson twin) attitude n understandably so after the draft season..


    but honestly I look at our blazers roster n think "we could use one of those thompson twins too!" but i mean the cost in trade would be immense

    Cam Thomas with 24 1st half points in 13 minutes off the bench.. the nba is back!


    Max Strus made 3 3's in a row for his new team that was a sick 1 minute of gametime sequence for a new player on a new team.. promising stuff.. he's built to hit those high pressure 3's been doing that since college.



    I wonder what Ben Simmons stats are gonna look like end of the season... I wouldnt be surprised if Simmons grabs a ton of boards doesnt score much points n gets lots of assists n plays solid defense.. Not much of a Simmons fan but they have quite the roster composition there for him to influence with his versatility

    Celtics 9sure look like they miss Robert Williams if u ask me!!! I cant believe Al Horford is still there and they gave up on Williams first.. unreal..


    Cuz the knicks are somehow hanging with them while laying brick after brick after brick..


    and really Tatum and Porzingis are playing great so its the others kinda coming back to haunt them...

    but not much from Jrue..

    Cole anthony went crazy in the 3rd for Orlando.. I hope Cole anthony somehow takes the starting spot..


    for all the talent Houston's assembled --- that team still goes nowhere unless Jalen Green carries them
