🏀 NBA: Let’s Get Hoop’d

Also, feel bad for Russ not having a team yet. I cannot believe a player who averaged 13ppgs, 9 rpgs, 6 apgs last season, has struggle to find a suitor.

The main problem with Russ is that while his Trip Dub days were a marvel to watch, it got incredibly obvious that those stats don't translate into actual wins. He's along the same lines of Harden in that way, where his stats almost feel as though there's less value in them than normal

Can't say I disagree, sadly...
In Harden's case, at least he once single handedly carried the Rockets to the best record and almost beat the mighty prime Steph & KD-led Warriors. (it took 27 consecutive missed 3s and Chris Paul's hand injury to beat that 2018 Rockets team)

Happy for Russ!

He's gonna live in Sacramanto...in the summer...I feel "bad" for him.

What a breath of fresh air watching the new NBA TV coverage from NBC.

Player intros, no trade discussion or legacy talk, no bashing bad game from players, and analysts actually having fun talking about the game.

the NBC production is soooo much better than the stale and bland ESPN

Oh i also love how they added icons on the scoreboard after every dunks and three pointers.

Its very cool to see a broadcaster finally give respect to the game instead of bashing it non-stop.

I hope this gives ESPN a spark to up their game coverage a little bit.

And for the game itself...
what a fun first day of the season!

A double OT between OKC and Houston was already a classic!...what an amazing game to start the season!

Oh, also watching the Lakers...lol, their defense is going to be atrocious this year, I'm afraid.

Yeah, but they're only 1 game out of 1st place.
