    App + chromecast isn't good for trying to pause or replay anything, the interface is trash.

    Might just buy a new TV, clearly it's time for an upgrade seeing I can't install the NBA app on the one I've got

    Do what works best for you.

    Before you buy a TV check out the Amazon firestick. I found it the cheapest HDMI option to "upgrade" one TV in my house - gave me access to almost every app I wanted. NBA app works (for me) through firestick

    Massive massive improvement from last year. If you remember during last year's preseason Rox got destroyed the 2 or so games they played Raptors, Precious and Anonuby had NBA 2k games vs them and Barnes used it as a statement game.

    This year we dont even have Bari but still handed the Rap a massive L. Great game by Bruno, our 2 guards and Eason. I actually think Eason should come off the bench, he is too talented to be the 5th option in the starting 5. What a find by Rafael Stone and company, Rox really got another top 10 talent in the 17th.

    Washington > Nix.

    Eason is a buzzsaw.

    Gary Bird sucks.

    They have a real roster crunch a-comin'.

    Jabari and Tari are big offseason additions, but Lionel deserves to get more run. We might not be the grind house but we made ground chuck out of the spurred.

    At the confluence of Jabari Tari and Lionel is the beginning of a culture of defense.

    Anyone know a link to a replay? I would love to watch this game. I think the lottery pick days are over for us for awhile (unless they belong to Brooklyn).

    LP is trash. I missed the game and tried to watch the replay but it just keeps buffering.

    Tari Eason should be our 6th man with the improving KJM as the starting SF. Tate also showed off a much better jumper. EG and JC are ideal bench players. The rotation is starting to look a bit crowded right now.

    Yes, in the predict our starting lineup I have
    KPj / G4 / Jabari / Tari / Sengun

    It may take time in order to showcase trade options of KMj and Eric Gordon.

    But it's going to be hard to keep Tari out over time

    The roster is VERY crowded!!! Too much talent and someone is going to get cut that's going to make another team happy. We already made the Warriors happy and we didn't know the first thing about the guy. As long as the Rockets make the right cut they won't have to relive letting go of the likes of Livingston and Covington and others who have gone on to had impactful careers

    Predictions going forward. John Lucas will compare TyTy to Avery Johnson next game.
