If you guys insist on talking about the dress code shit, can you please do it in the offseason thread where there's already a discussion about it, so the people who don't want to read about it (i.e. me) don't have to.

I second Dogg on that one. It's an offseason issue.

 

I'm interested to see how Chris Paul does against the Kings on opening night. Denver vs SA and Dallas vs Phoenix looks like it could kick a lot of ass opening night as well, plus they're TNT games.

 

Thank God the NBA is back.

I wonder who will be the Spurs center this year.....Rasho has good defense but no offense, Nazr has some offense but is in the coach's doghouse, and Oberto could be like every other european center who wants to shoot 3 pointers all day.

Why is Nazr in the doghouse? I thought he did solid at center last year and should definately start over Rasho.

I thought he was starting in the preseason, last I saw. Perhaps I misread.

I have a feeling that Philly/Detroit is going to be embarrasing. With Dalembert out, it is going to be Steven Hunter and Chris Webber vs. the Wallaces. Prince will eliminate Korver like he did in the playoffs. Iverson is going to need a 40-50 point night to even keep it competitive.

Happy to see that both Laker games will be televised nationally. I'm looking very much forward to seeing the new-look Lakers.

 

Another year of Kobe-Odom, with Kwame Brown and Chris Mihm developing, should be interesting with Zenmaster Jackson back.

 

This should be an enlightening and enriching experience.

Just be happy you get a cookie win wednesday night.

 

Chris Mihm developing? If by "Developing" you mean continuing to be a mediocre player then i'm right with ya.

I want utah to be in a nationally televised game.

Andrei Kirilenko is the most exciting defensive player in the nba, and no one gets to watch him play. It makes me sad.

 

 

Sucks living in a non-nba town like Pittsburgh, I don't have any team to root for so I just have to find players to like and root for their teams.

Cleveland just wouldn't be right, and D.C. really isn't that close. there's no team in Cincinatti ( a city I like). Philly is ok I suppose, but it's kinda blah.

 

so I'm gonna root for Utah all year :) I'll never see them play, but at least I'll have something to go with!

Knicks are totally in need of an extra two weeks of practice, as Marbury and Crawford honestly looked lost under Larry Brown in the pre season. The only guaranteed starting spot goes to Marbury and curry, with PF, SG and SF still not decided.

 

Jerome James might end up being the worst FA signing of the year, he looks pathetic.

Same reason Papavich benched Malik Rose and Rasho Nesterovich.....they are inconsistent. Oh and Rasho might start on Tuesday cause Nazr has some injury issues.

Crawford has had a great preseason. Marbury was just cruising, you know what he'll bring to the table. In the open practice, Q-Rich practiced and it seems like he'll be ready for opening night. I'm still not sure whether he's starting at the 3, since Brown likes him at the 2 as well.

Nate Robinson was probably the steal of the draft. No joke. Knicks better utlitize him well.

although both teams are still developing, I really wanted to see Boston vs. Knicks tomorrow. I am a huge Celts fan and the Knicks should have an interesting team. Possibly the best rookie combo from this year with Frye-Robinson-Lee, along with seeing how the new look Knicks will do, should be a fun game. I have the League Pass and the only two on are the Kings-Hornets and the Bucks-76ers. Depending on what time the TNT games start (namely Phoenix (my West Coast transplant team)), I think I may watch some of the Sixers-Bucks, who I think will have a nice season this year, despite the fact that I think they gave Terry Porter the shaft.

 

Well, just noticed Knicks-Celts isn't til Wed... here's to hoping it's on TV.
