Hey guys, what was the roster of each team? What was the score and who won? Who looked better than expected and who worse? Any colorful plays?

13,952 were there, so the dearth of reports must be because the whole board's there. They're all writing their book-length reports right now. Soon we'll be overwhelmed with reading material in this thread.
For those that missed the game... - Dame and CJ looked sharp. Crisp passes and CJ's ball handling looks even better this year. - Turner was active but overall a mixed bag. Couple of crafty plays off the bounce but threw some passes expecting guys to be in spots they weren't and spot J didn't look good. - I don't think Pumlee's jumper is a thing we'll see much this year. I expect him to improve from the foul line though. - Crabbe looked more comfortable with the dribble. Made a couple nice passes out of the weak side two man game as well. - Harkless' shot looks smoother, but missed his only attempt from 3. - Davis looks like he's working himself into shape. Didn't look great running the floor. Active on the boards though. - Napier looked better than expected. He's still a terrible finisher, but played with a nice pace and showed better feel working out of the pnr than what I saw in Orlando. - Connaughton shot it a lot and pretty well. He still doesn't look to have enough skills to be a rotation player though. - Nobody really stood out among the non-guaranteed guys.
For anyone one thinking about PlayStation Vue: I just logged in, and started the Fan Fest without having to Record it intentionally. But I can't fast forward through commercials.
If Dame can shoot above 40% for the season from 3 with his volume, it would be a huge step forward in him climbing to definitive top 10 player.
This was a really fun show. Loved the ending! I like Crabby Patty's driving game. ET looked over eager. Dame looked STONE COLD.
Turners quick behind the back to pull up jumper looked unreal live. It was so sharp and quick. But he trying to do a little too much. He'll be fine. Now Crabbe just has to become crafty finishing around the rim. He'd drive and not know what to do when he got inside.
He had a couple of great dishes off to Plumlee and someone else. Looked really confident out there. I'm excited to see him play a lot of minutes now (I wasn't as much before, but hearing him working on his driving game is a big deal)
