20 8 ast and 3 steals for Jeff Teague in his Pacers debut. The Mavs announcers were talking **** about George Hill and how Teague is better during the game.

Those will be a fun two games.

Jonas V with 32 points on 15 shots and derozan with 40 points on 27 shots carried the raptors.

MKG with a nice game of 23 points and 14 rebounds. (10-18 from the field)

Giannis with 31 and 9 on 13-21 shooting.

Wiggins with a nice game of 25 point and 7 boards on 7-14 shooting.

Westbrook with a typical (for him) 32, 12, and 9 assists.

Only downside to Wiggins game is that an almost 40 year old bench player Vince Carter held him scoreless in the 4th which lost them the game. I think Timberwolves are in for a season similar to ours 2 years ago. Rough start, hard losses a lot of moral victories and then will make a run in the second half of the season.

I think Wiggins overall scoring ability is a bit lacking.

Really good all around player though.

Locke talked about this and how Carter got up on him since Wiggins can't really dribble. How useful it was to have a player that read up on scouting reports and knew how to attack a certain player.

Also looks like the Rockets can score but cannot stop anyone from scoring either.

4 orebs for Wiggins tho, thats the stat im watching for him closest moving forward, if he starts to really hit the oboards at a dominant rate he'll score 20ppg again easily.

He already averaged 20 points per game last season with 1.3 o-boards, so that is not saying much.

D-League to feature first 3 team 6 quarter basketball game

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. - The Santa Cruz Warriors will play one home preseason game against the Reno Bighorns and the Salt Lake City Stars (formerly the Idaho Stampede) in a three-way preseason game on Sunday, Nov. 6 at 3 p.m. at Kaiser Permanente Arena. The exhibition game will consist of six 12-minute quarters with each team playing a total of two quarters apiece. There will be a 15 minute halftime/warmup between halves, with 10 minutes allotted for the sitting team and five additional minutes for opponents. The timeout limit for the first quarter of each half will be waived. Quarters one, three and five will be designated as "teaching quarters" in which the timeout limit will be removed. Santa Cruz will play the first two quarters of the preseason game against the Salt Lake City Stars. The Warriors will then face Reno in the third and fourth quarters. To close the tri-game, Reno and Salt Lake City will play each other in the fifth and sixth quarters.

Trey Burke just debuted for the Wizards, and was blocked at the rim within a few minutes.

Dwight Howard looks like a great fit with ATL next to Sap and playing with Schrudda, 11 rebs in 10 minutes so far.

LOL .. who said the Bulls were gonna suck?

Peculiar season opener for the Wizards. If the Jazz performed as they just did in the last 15 minutes this forum would be flooded with negativity..


There was a bit of a squabble over a Kentbazemore Flagrant on John Wall, and the Wizards have been absolutely melting down ever since.. Lots of STUPID mistakes..
