    I have a feeling that the Marcus Smart achilles thing will be a problem all year.

    This is no bueno. JJ might have to watch his minutes, too, which was always the case; however, it will be a more of a priority now, IMO.

    yeah, it's pretty rare that muscle/tendon things in training camp don't pretty much linger for much of the year. lebron coming out of the gate with one isn't fantastic, either--though his worries me less.

    Is being HC of South Bay higher in the organizational structure and salary wise for Lindsey Harding .... any thoughts? But now everyone else's name on the coaching staff is bolded except her's and she's not in the photo, I guess because she won't be in the seats with the Varsity?

    when ayton first came on the screen my mind briefly forgot what was happening, and i was like "man, reddish is moving better" lol.

    ayton's fluidity and skill are pretty unusual for someone that big, even among nba players.

    hopefully playing with lebron and luka can finally motivate ayton to play at 100% every night. the talent has always been there with him, but it's the laziness that's held him back

    He looks really good in the video. Even knocking down some threes. But yeah, that mid range game is strong. Good moves.

    Well we get our first look tomorrow night. It may just be a preseason game, but I'm looking forward to it.

    Mark Williams and Jalen Green out tonight per AI.

    • Mark Williams: The center was ruled out as a "coach's decision" while he continues to build strength after a past injury. :eek: ;)
    • Jalen Green: The guard was sidelined with a hamstring strain suffered during practice

    Laker lose to Suns 103-81

    Rusty would be a nice word

    Bronny 1-12

    Rui 3-12

    DK 2-10

    DA and Vando combine for 0-6

    3 point 17% right on cue

    RJ Davis with 14 nice to see

    And AR with 20 leads the way

    I think without Luka, this team would be struggling to make the ninth spot in the West.
    I don’t care if it’s just one game, getting blown out by this version of the Suns is embarrassing.
