Wizards looking good. Nice to see Wall playing.

Nice

Pretty excited for the season to get underway. Scored a free ticket for a Nugs game this weekend

Cool; how do the Nuggets look?

Very young squad (7-8 guys under 25). Loads of talent. Jokic finished 3rd in RotY (Behind KAT and Porz). Really excited to see Murray get some playing time next to Mudiay as a SG/PG. Gallo, if healthy, is a borderline all-star. It'll be a fun squad. Worth a watch. Not expecting much in win totals, but hoping for a sneaky playoff run as 7/8 seed.

Picking my boy Giannis "The Greek Freak" first in fantasy draft this year. Got a feeling

Went to the Wolves and Nuggets preseason game the other day. Minnesota has a lot of young talent. Like, if they can keep it together could be setting up for a fun few years in the Twin Cities good. I have decided to adopt them as my NBA team of choice.

Should've chosen the other team. Wolves are going to be hyped out the wazoo. KAT is already a superstar...

No way. Nuggets didn't look good at all. Maybe it was just the night I saw them but Minnesota looked to be much more talented. We'll see if it pans out on the court. If I'm gonna adopt a team, it's going to be one that looks like they could be on the precipice of something fun, not a team that looks like they've got a ways to go. It's not like I'm gonna be following them like I do the Nats, though. This is gonna be a pretty casual thing.

I'm biased now. That's my only adopted team after moving here. Like I told the other guys, I'm really excited about the team. The other night was a back-to-back (sort of), so they were playing a lot of guys that are fighting for the final spot. That's always ugly basketball.

Heh, oops. I honestly didn't read anything above when I posted my comment. Sorry about that...

I do like Murray though, he's a stud.

Hey man, if we're gonna talk about preseason, they lost by 1 point in OT to GS last night!

I'll be the first to admit I have no idea how to read preseason games. It was fun to see an NBA game up close and personal in my home town.

Anthony Davis is a monster. Luckily, he's the only one that can score in NO

It's fun seeing Nenê and Ariza playing together again.

Buzzer beater for the Griz. Brutal.

We met a guy at the bar that said he was Layman's HS coach (the Terp that plays for Portland now). Nothing but nice things to say. I'm rooting for him to get some PT

BrandonK · « **Reply #43:** November 26, 2016, 12:20:32 AM »

Really sucks rooting for a young team at times. The Nugs should've closed out a nice win against Russ and OKC tonight, but they shat it away. Oh well

BrandonK · « **Reply #44:** November 30, 2016, 11:43:41 PM »

Free Nuggets tickets tonight. Of course they lost.

Cavs got Korver. Rich get richer. Ugh.

Free tix tonight vs the Fakers. Life is good.

At least they had the excuse of those not being free tix. No excuse now.
