Not sure how they're gonna deal with their crowded backcourt situation going forward... especially at the SG with Harris, Murray and Barton all about as good as each other right now.
 
I wonder what he's doing for money then?

Apparently robberies..

According to Houston’s KTRK-TV, Francis, who was back in police custody after Saturday’s DWI charge, is facing extradition to Manatee County, Fla. after he allegedly stole $7,252 in jewelry, cash and other items outside a restaurant there on June 15. He is now reportedly out on bond for the burglary charge.
Francis, 39, who played for parts of two seasons with the Knicks after spending the prime of his career with the Rockets, allegedly asked a bartender working at the Bradenton restaurant for a flashlight before breaking into a BMW parked outside, according to a police report obtained by TMZ.
 
Kevin Love has made 8 three pointers and counting... in the first quarter

Okay, so he finished the 1Q with 8 threes and 34 points (good news, it's against the Blazers)!!

Portland with 60 points in the 1st half and down by 21. Cavs two points shy of franchise record for a half (83).
 
Tom Thibadeau's rep as a defensive mastermind is being tested. No way the Wolves should be this bad on defense. KAT, Wiggins, and Rubio should be enough to play at least average defense.

And the Warriors with 80 in the first half against the Lakers. I guess Cleveland and the Warriors are pretty good.

Its funny they took Dieng infront of Gobert and now this is their issue.. they also have two highly touted defensive PG's that they paid a great price in draft picks for..

I certainly had Gobert way higher on my board, I still don't really have a good grasp on why he fell that far, I know Lindsey has hinted that they didn't know he was going to be this good - but how could all those teams have missed?

They should've taken Jamal Murray obviously. I really like the idea of moving Karl to PF and putting him next to a true 7-footer, so Poeltl would've probably been better than Dunn too.


The rumor today is they might want to trade for Luol Deng..
 
Impressive team passing. Only a very few of those fall into the iffy category.

I've never been so confident in a team's championship chances at this stage. I could only compare it to how confident I was in Anthony Davis' chances at being the #1 pick after watching the season opener..

FWIW I thought the Cubs were gonna win the chip very early in the baseball season too.

I'm also extremely confident that Harden will be the MVP
