    With the compressed pre-season, Curry and Durant will probably have to rest on opening day.

    We weren't gonna host Christmas Day. Texans are playing at home. Too much conflict.

    Well, Philly has Embiid and the last two #1 picks playing as rookies. I'll be watching a LOT of them.

    but agree, why the Knicks ... yeah, yeah, they have Porzingis.

    Philly is fine if they need another east team but both the lakers and knicks are gonna be putrid, definitely don't need both of them in there

    Last year San Antonio opened at Golden State and crushed them by 29 points. We opened against the LA Lakers and lost. It doesn't really matter who our opponent is. We can play up or down to our level of competition.

    So happy to have a Christmas Day game again... Not going to lie, it didn't feel right not being able to watch them last year with all my family.

    Listen up here.

    We all know eggball Texans fans are the lowest IQ, obese "people" of all fanbases like bobbythefail for example. City of Houston needs some money to fund the metro system and 290 construction. No better way than to fool the 40yr old dumbasses min wagers who will put their lifetime savings on an eggball game on Christmas day
