Fun pre-season game tonight, SR.
I forgot that Brad Stevens is no longer the coach.

My guys are so young and skinny. :lol:
Oh, shit. Totally flew under my radar with all the sports on yesterday :balls: . Two point win...I'll take it. Under 2 weeks till proper tip-off. Like every year, this one has it's own mysteries to unfold. 76'ers are a bit of a mess with talent, Bucks are the Bucks, and I think Miami is going to be fierce. :noclue: We'll see

Is Adele dating Rich Paul?

If true, it is not a couple I would have ever thought to match up. :noclue: (Obviously, I don't know them personally )

I got some tickets for December- Raptors vs Bulls. :aoa:

Standing tix for $27 each! I've had standing before it's not bad. I like that I will have space around me and not be packed into a row with people sitting so close.
It'll be my first live sporting event since Feb 2019!

I think you need more than two players to score over 10 points to win. :noclue:

I'm excited for the Raptors new season back at home in the '6' after 600 days.

Old guys on the team now are Van Vleet, OG, Siakam, Dragic, Boucher. Lots of young guys, long and athletic. I don't have any playoff hopes this year, but should be a fun season. The rookie,Scottie Barnes, is adorbs, so energetic and funny. Precious Achiuwa was looking great in the pre-season. Toronto boy, Dalano Banton, looking good too.

What do you guys think about the NBA 75 list?

No comment from me. Compared to you guys, I'm an NBA newb.

Should Dennis Rodman be on that list? Dwight Howard?

Here's a good piece on that. Probably sums up how a lot of people feel as far as only getting to choose 75 players.

The TO fans still love him. Even though I would have preferred a W, I'm okay with the loss. I really hope this is DD's year with the Bulls. He works really hard. And,he's a really likable guy on and off the court.

Last night's game was good, it was a nail biter down to the end. You guys nearly blew a 20pt lead. 4-0, great start. I'm looking forward to going to the Bulls game in December. Hopefully by then, my Raptors will be playing a little better. Right now Pascal is still off. I wish Nick Nurse would play a couple of the other guys like Malachi Flynn and Justin Champagnie; they were great in the pre-season games.

Where's Ben Simmons chants? breaking out at the Knicks game last night. Gotta love it, they have no shot unless he plays.

Great win for the Raptors last night! I thought for sure they were going to lose against the Knicks, but they came back in the 3rd and dominated! Nick Nurse finally played some of the bench guys. Still wondering what is up with not playing Dragic. Maybe he's injured? Haven't heard anything about that.. :noclue:

How about that other game with the Bulls and Celtics?? :yikes: This game was on at the same time as the the Raptors and when I checked the scores, the Cs were up, so I didn't bother watching. Apparently all the action was in the 4th!! I was surprised by Marcus Smart's post-game comments calling out Tatum and Brown for being ball hogs, basically.

I'm happy for Demar, great night for him! :rockon:

Brutal. Basically outscored 4 to 1 in the 4th. Brown didn't even get a shot off in the 4th. So many problems.

what a pickup DeRozan has been for the bulls. His calm demeanor hitting those mid range shots is perfect for zach levine

I admit it. I'm on the Chicago band wagon this year! :rockon:

The games have been great so far with the exception of a couple. Hope the momentum and gelling holds.
