Liked the second quarter. The terrible defender lineup was bad but it bought time for LeBron and AD to make a push at the end of it.

Lakers have missed several wide open threes but made several guarded ones so I guess it evens out.

could have sworn I heard the announcer say earlier that the Lakers wanted AD to take around six threes a game

that can't be possibly be correct right

It's something Ham said but who knows how real it is, since AD has always been a low volume three point shooter even when he was "good" at hitting threes (hitting one every other game instead of every other game and a half which was his rate last year).

a 39 year old man is going to have to play 39 mpg for his team to win

I mean if LeBron needs to play that much that means all of their signings flopped which means they probably won't win with him playing that much anyway.

Wouldn't be shocked if the Lakers are the best of the rest again but they have no chance against the Nuggets.

Like honestly I think the Clippers are the only team that has enough matchup advantages on the Nuggets to beat them in the West and of course they have all the asterisk and qualifiers possible. But you gotta turn Murray into a net negative to withstand Jokic.

I couldn’t watch the games live, so watched them 8 hours after the fact. NBA app, of course, shat itself. Not the first time it has done it on the season opener. Glad i pay a lot of money for this service

Yeah the audio pass was broken too. Or it worked, they just forgot to load the English language feeds in before halftime of Lakers/Nuggets.

Maybe their policy of not turning the thing on until the first game and using the preseason to test stuff out would be smart but who could say.
