The Adelaide 36ers beat the Suns.  That's pretty wild, even for preseason.  Well done.

I know it’s just a preseason game, but man… That’s embarrassing. Not like the Suns were suiting up a bunch of G-leaguers either and they lost by double digits! Lol.

Yeah.  The Suns outscored Adelaide by 11 in the 22 minutes their starters were on the floor, which isn’t terrible but is underwhelming, and their reserves got waxed against what should have been vastly inferior competition.

Any team can win when they are just shooting crazy. That's why the playoffs are always series.

It was put funnily by someone online.

A team that is in NBA2K23 got beaten by a team that has NBA2K23 as one of its sponsors

Simmons about to make his Nets debut.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Shooting has been bad too and I don’t just mean Simmons.  :laugh:

Kendrick Nunn starting for the Lakers. Interesting…

I think he is the best fit.  Solid enough defender and shooter.

I know it's just preseason, but Lebron looked awful last night.  Father time finally winning? He seemed very slow, had difficulty getting by anyone, and his shot was awful (0/7, 4 points).

Murray may be Kings' best player, he should be starting already, don't know why he came in off the bench.

Playing Ben Simmons as point guard is so stupid.  Move him to power forward or center.   I'm very unscared of the Nets.

LeBron is just chasing numbers at this point. I thought he only played one end of the court last year and took a bunch of games off.

Keegan Murray will be a very, very good player. He or Banchero will win ROTY for me
