    I am fired up about tonight. We are not expected to win, but we need a really strong showing. Last year the game was over by half time in our opener, so i think it is really important that we put on a great show even if we lose.

    Murray honestly is a perfect addition next to Trae because he's actually good at defense. That was ATL's big weakness perimeter defense.

    Only problem is that they both ball dominant. And both undersized.

    I think the NBA is past being worried about having two ball dominant players pairing up. Harden and healthy CP3 made it work at near legendary levels.

    As long as both of them are shooters, it works. It doesn't work when one of them can't space the floor well when they are off ball. It worked with Harden and CP3 because both were shooters and teams feared leaving them open off ball. Now with Westbrook, opposite scenario.

    Alpy is gonna have such a good game all this hubbub will be for naught. Remember it’s not who starts the games but who finishes them that is more important. He’s going to have a huge role.

    Bro I swear if my league pass says it’s blacked out.

    I haven’t watched one successful preseason game with league pass

    Excited to see the big 3 in action. You can't double all of them and they all have a team mentality. Whoever you leave on an island is getting torched.
