    I can't believe our columnist Kelly Iko, at the Athletic, took the over for the Vegas line of 26 wins for our season lmao

    Its crazy that no one is taking midrange jumpers. As a Rockets fan I figured it was mainly a product of Morey and Harden buying in, but tonight is all close paint or 3s by both teams. An entire part of the court isn't being utilized and it's just nuts. I get the %s, but just wow.

    Wolves are actually playing defense which they never do they might be good this season.

    There’s going to be a lot of growing pains this season. I would expect a few 50+ point losses. Hopefully, no more than a couple.

    Their defense isn't this good, the refs have basically swallowed the whistle for them.

    I think its really cool that Edwards wants to help Silas out by calling a timeout for him.
