    Yup, especially with how the West looks this year. If "play-in" is your only metric of success this year its still going to be rough. That being said, I do believe next year they will be in the play-in/playoffs

    Tyrese is lowkey already a top 15 player IMO. This is going to be an interesting game between two up-and-coming young teams.

    15 Players is the average of players Pre-season teams trotted out.

    Boston: 12

    One or two teams with 16-17 due to players fouling out or playing Overtime.

    Safe to say that is the magical number.

    I will be deciding on how I feel about Udoka based off of Sengun's minutes this first pre season game...

    Once they get out that tiny practice court, they win 40 Games.

    They say seeing Salma Hayek close-by is one of the biggest disappointment in one's life. Some distance/lenses helps.

    Age has an impact on everyone, including me (take a look at the Blade Runner sequel), even you. From Dusk to Dawn was made 27 years ago, so of course Salma Hayek would look more than a little different today. She was 30 then, looking damn good in the Robert Rodriguez film. Were she in the stands at the Toy Box for the next game there, busy cheering the Rockets on to victory, she'd look a bit different. Heck, she'd look 57!

    If I see more ISO-dominated basketball, I will really be disappointed.

    If the other guys are moving around, doing a lot of off ball stuff, then a certain amount is ok with me.

    The iso ball I hate is when the other 4 guys are just standing in a spot doing nothing.
