So once Fultz is out of the NBA I really want an indepth story of what happened to him. You don't forget how to shoot/play basketball to the degree he has, that doesn't happen. Its some voodoo stuff

[KingPG21]

Also, if people didn't watch the Budenholzer Bucks during the preseason check them out..... Giannis is gonna tear the league apart, even more than he did last year

I really think that he and his trainer (who I believe Markelle is very close to) tried to change his shot mechanics and they botched it then he got the yips and just forgot how shoot completely. He was already really reliant on his jumper so without it he's just not any good. Defenses have no reason to respect him offensively.

Opening night for a number of Hoosiers and what an opening night it was for Vonleh as a Knick - a double double with 12 pts. and 10 reb. in just 16 min. of action.   Yogi got the start for his new team the Kings.  Per Crimson and Cream, OG suffered an injury which accounts for his limited minutes.  Later saw it's described as a right orbital contusion and uncertain for Friday's game.  For those of you not well-versed in high falutin' medical terminology, he got poked in the eye!

Watched Yogi play last night he looked decent and Sacramento is not a fluke but will struggle.

So the Cavs replaced Lebron with Woodbury.

Lol. Why flair out to the wing when too chicken ish to shoot the ball?

That’s great.

Might turn out to be the biggest flame out ever if he can’t shoot the ball. He’s not even that athletic compared to others.

Re: Kings

Bagley should be getting more minutes.

They have a ton of talent. Don’t think they have the coach or system for it. A bunch of offensive minded players with a defensive minded coach.

I agree with that should be interesting.

This Lakers team won’t make it out of the first round.

Fun to watch imo. But man, they can’t shoot and don’t care to defend. Layup or bust on offense.

Josh Hart is gonna take KCP's spot at some point. He's really good. Lakers have several decent to good shooters but they'll be streaky as hell.

Only one IU guy last night and that was TB and the Wizards who lost their season opener to the Heat.  TB was a DNP-Coach's Decision.  Not the way he thought his move to Washington would work I'm sure.

[Brass Cannon]

Well at least the pacers will be dramatic and continue their hot n cold antics

[IUfan_Charlie]

I'm convinced the Pacers paid the wrong Center. Sabonis is outplaying him every night and I really doubt that will stop. He's gonna average a double double off the bench this year.

I saw this coming. I’ve never been too impressed with Turner like most other have been.
