The NBA is full of storylines, lulz.

Okay , I live in East Tennessee when I purchase the NBA League Pass, which teams will be blacked out?

Hawks
Grizzlies
Hornets

Draymond Green is back and better than ever. 1 game, 1 technical.

Book busts his ass back on D on a fast break, then gets a steal at the basket, pushes the ball 3/4 of the court on a fast break even tho he doesn't really have numbers, dumps it, then sprints across the baseline and hits a contested corner 3...this was several minutes into his run. It's so nice to have a star who doesn't play his way into shape.

Pistons played a possession with 6 players on the court.

Weird that I can't find a map. It should only be one team, but IDK which. Used to be the Hawks way back when I lived in east TN. Look at the TV schedule on your streaming app to see which team comes up for the non-national games.

I would guess whoever is on your area's FanDuel/Bally's station normally.

Okay thanks. Then it's the Hawks for my area.

Why do you think it's the player's fault?

Oops misread the quote from the trainer.

Klay with nice first game as a Maverick in regular season. 22 points

Thunder shot 22% from 3p with no Hartenstein in Denver and won by 15

Here are my crowd-sourced over/unders for the year. This is my 3rd year doing this and I'm up 29%. Really wanted the Kings and Thunder overs, too, but they were -185 and -160 respectively. I hate that they do that. They should all be -110, and then give me the win number based on that.

T-Wolves - Over 52.5

Rockets - Over 42.5

Suns - Over 47.5

Cavs - Over 48.5

Pacers - Over 46.5

Pistons - Over 25.5

Magic - Over 48.5

Kyle Lowry pretty good!

The Ringer group chat guys were talking about how much ass is on the 76ers roster (Lowry, Yabusele, Drummond, Gordon) and and somebody called them the Thixers.

 

[knoxvol52]

Lakers come back from 22 down to defeat the Suns.

AD with 35 and AR-15 with 26.

 

[Volfan1000]

Dyson Daniels was a steal for Atlanta in the Murray trade.

 

[n_huffhines]

I think JJ's gonna be OK. What if Lebron actually knows what he's saying if/when he tells the brass Ham isn't the guy, but JJ is.

Lakers over/under is 42.5 and they're 2-0 having played two great WC teams

FYI, the Iverson set is when the guard just sprints straight across the top of the perimeter, as if it were the baseline. Learned this one not too long ago
