Optimum, SOF1. Sport Overflow 1.

Sounds like a channel they should put hockey and cornhole on.

Coach Brown is building our team fundamentals first. I respect it.

Let's Go Big Blue! Only watched the 1st quarter since the Giants player at 815. We looked great though. I have to watch the highlight.

Skattebo!!!

I get they had no plays last night and it was VERY apparent -- watching the game I kept thinking I could actually design this offense which was basically 99% perimeter hand offs about 25-30 feet from the hoop and than somebody try to find a shot.

We could barely execute hand-offs with the D going over the top of screens and will be fun when refs start blowing fouls on the illegal screens on hand offs 30 feet out.

- remember when Deuce was an all-star in game 1 in the desert (been a turd next few games)
- wish we could just play Mitch on D and Kat on offense (Kats decision making was awful tonight but Mitch is a zero on offense)

We still don't have a perfect fit 5th guy in starting rotation - it isn't Mitch, isn't Deuce and it isn't Josh.

- OG handles almost as good as Mitch

Think Mikal looks good despite some poor shooting, Jalen/Kat look in good shape despite poor shooting. We still look small after Mitch/Kat.

Overall everything looked hard for our top 8 in terms of scoring the ball --- thought our D was very good.

First home game often a mess.

Yeah, it was a mess. They looked bad, we looked bad, and you have to look at whats possible.
I like Mikals smoother delivery.
Kat? He'll get the rythem down. Mitch looked good doing his beast thing.
Clarkson looks like himself. Dour disposition and high volume shooting. He'll drive us crazy at times.
I have no judgement given Brown by virtue of his statements saying he is letting them play thru instinct which gives him this core a look to see what they naturally do and how Thibs had them. At the same time its evident there is rust and uncertainty.
Loved OG being tentitive then he must have been told to "**** it" and let loose. Some preseason silliness for sure but that jumper over Rudy was sweet! Just have to let it loose!

Mcdaniels got even more bone head fouls in preseason.......

Dude that called the game last night with clyde looked like some right wing charlie Kirk wannabe! What a goofy looking kid. To his credit, he called a really nice game. Clyde looking like a 2 year old picks out his clothes. Somehow only he can pull that off! Iconic! He does like to wear those championship rings! He should!

shall we circle back to this after game 1 when the Knicks lose a tight game to Cle as they had no idea how to run the plays down the stretch and had to revert to 1/2 court iso plays?

Just kidding. Im sure this is just what they need

Yabu?

Kat/Yabu at the 5/4 doesn’t give me great defensive or rim protection vibes and Yabu is another guy that 1) isn’t going to dribble penetrate, 2) add ball handling and 3 he’s best as a small ball 5 (see Kat).

The new announcer didn’t seem to fit visually but he didn’t annoy me during game.

Clyde LITERALLY - did not know who we were playing at the starting jump.

He went to comment and turns to new announcer and says who are we playing again?

If we were just playing off instincts we failed.

T-Pups were over playing every hand off and can anyone recall 1 back door cut against that pressure?

Giving ball to Mitch at the elbow is a path to nowhere - Kat yes but Mitch no.
