Who do you like?
 
Nets at 29.5? I like under on the Suns, something seems off with that team and Booker has spent all summer with the Kardashians.
 
Yeah. The Knicks are really low for a team trying to win with a new free agent signing.
 
Tucker, Trez, Melton, House such nice pickups for Sixers.

And Maxey is gonna be ridiculous. Legit hyped for this team.
 
Over on the Nets at 29.5 looks so obvious it must be a trap.

I'll take the under on Mavs at 48.5.
 
Yeah, Nets must've been a typo. It's 49.5/50.5 depending on where you look.

Hornets UNDER 36.5 I like a lot.
 
Wembanaya vs. Scoot Pt 2 is on ESPN2 at 2.

Hawks vs. Bucks in Abu Dhabi is on NBA TV now.

Sixers are in full throw-shit-at-the-wall-to-see-what-sticks chemistry mode. Tucker and Trez will get in a fight before the end of the season.

I'm thinking the over on the 36.5 for the Hornets. Not because they are good, because without Bridges they are going to objectively suck balls. But, this will be an epic tank season for a good portion of the league. Anybody not clearly in the title chase is going to tank, and even if the Hornets did successfully tank to the worst record Silver would ensure that the ping pong balls bounce to another team a la Anthony Davis. I think MJ goes all-in on capitalizing on that weakened landscape to dupe fans (and LaMelo) into thinking the team is decent by being the only middling team actually trying to win. If over half the league is openly tanking, the Hornets will try to make a playoff push and back into some extra wins.

maybe! your current nba champion golden state warriors just had a fight in an intrasquad scrimmage between draymond green and jordan poole. don't think it means your team can't be good. guess you just prefer it when your players hit women....
 
Sixers seem to be getting a lot of preseason love. Simmons and Lowe were pretty bullish on them on Bill's latest pod. They've definitely gotten deeper, but I still don't know if I trust their wing defenders to pair with Harden and Maxey. A lot riding on 38 year-old (when the playoffs roll around) PJ Tucker. Danuel House was a sneaky good add for them. I do think Harden will look better this year.

East is just so stacked. Hawks or Cavs with their big offseason moves could be finishing in 8th.
 
Watching the Webamyana vs. Scoot Pt 2 (which started at 3, not 2). Scoot is out after they banged knees.

They mentioned a few rule experiments in the G-League this season. One is an overtime target score. First to score 7 in an untimed overtime wins.

I love this. The Elam ending is a nice change for special games like the All-Star game. For overtime, it just makes sense. As I've posted several times, a 5 minute overtime just sucks the excitement out of a close game. I'll watch a League Pass game to the end of regulation and then check out of OT until it gets to under 2 minutes. But a first to 7 points OT is must watch. 7 is a good number. Three possessions is enough to determine a winner. FTs are massive so teams may be hesitant to foul.
