    Adams with another low scoring game.

    We'll see how the season plays out, but I'm starting to think that Adams needed Russ far more than people realize. Russ set him up for a lot of easy buckets.

    Is CP not feeding him?

    Russ was playing for the opposition. 🙂

    Adams was 2-7 on the box score.

    @canefan He's averaging two less shot attempts per game than last season, but the bigger problem is he's shooting 31% from the field.

    I've been impressed by this rookie class so far and Zion hasn't even played yet.

    The scoreline for the Rockets v Wizards is insane. 159 - 158 to the Rockets and there wasn't any overtime. That's the sort of scoreline you'd expect in an allstar game or a triple/quadruple overtime game.

    Warriors are getting touched up by the Suns at the moment. To make matters worse, Curry left the game with a broken hand. They might miss the playoffs if Curry misses too much time.

    @Dice They won't make the playoffs. Klay ain't coming back this year. They'll tank from here. Amazing to think they were a KD/Klay injury away from a title last year and now they're a lottery team

    Dallas and LA play a great game, Doncic KP LBJ and Davis all started. Kuz got through some minutes unscathed. Both teams should be pretty happy with the way they played

    Yep great game. Blew out in OT unfortunately. Doncic was really impressive.

    The Suns' supporting cast this season is contributing well, and Booker does seem to have matured into a genuine franchise player. Really impressed with Aaron Baynes this season; he and Ayton could be an impressive centre rotation.

    Dallas must be stoked that the KP trade looks to have cemented their core for the next decade. Thanks NY!

    Suns beat Sixers (albeit sans Embiid, but we also didn't have Ayton) to go 5-2 and second in the West. Simmons was poor and not even the best Australian on the court.

    I'm waiting for the crash, like a 1-7 stretch.

    How did the Trail Blazers lose to that Warriors team.

    If you guys aren't watching every Luca game you can, you're doing yourselves an injustice. This kid has top 10 all-time potential.

    They have a good coach and a core that is building.

    After following the NBA since 1999, and spending large parts of my teenage years obsessively playing the EA Sports game, I'm finally ticking off a major bucket list item by actually going to see a game.

    Am in New York for a 2-day work trip this week, and seeing the Mavs play the Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Amazing historic venue, and will be Porzingis' first game back since being traded so should have some spice. Can't wait to see what a 7'3" human looks like in the flesh (we'll have seats pretty close to courtside) and, of course, watch future superstar Luka play live.

    On the Knicks side, they're not as fun to watch as Brooklyn, but seeing RJ Barrett go as potential ROY will be good, and Marcus Morris / Julius Randle at least have some name recognition.

    Am so excited.

    Have caught the Hawks a bit this season and Trae Young has been really impressive. Another one from last year's rookie class that is taking a big step forward.

    @TeWaio you'll have fun. I saw a similar matchup a few days ago Bulls v Rockets in Chicago. It was a bloody good crowd (near sellout) considering the Bulls are fairly terrible team this year. I understand MSG always sells out - especially for the cross town game.

    There'll be a heap going on around the stadium and during the game even if the score blows out (which it did for Bulls Rockets). Some of it is fairly cheesy very American but plenty to keep you entertained.

    Enjoy!

    Nice to see Markelle Fultz playing well after a shaky start to his NBA career

    The Spurs are finally dead. A 22-year playoff run should come to an end this season. The team stinks.
