New NBA season, new NBA thread... Here is last season's thread...

Figured it'd be best to continue this thread.

Brandon Miller, returning from injury, scored 25 points in 30 minutes. Collin Sexton had 15 in 17. Noah Clowney only had 5 pts, 4 rebounds. Hornets beat the Nets.

Chris Youngblood knocked down a 3 yesterday for the Thunder. Saw 6 minutes.

No indictments, a good stat for any player given events.

Bama players doing good so far.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Brandon Miller only had 4 points in 9 minutes. Left the game with a shoulder injury. Fuck.

Collin Sexton had 21 points and seven assists. He's a damn good player off the bench.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Pelicans are 0-2 on the year. Herb had zero points but 7 rebounds. He's got to get more involved offensively.

 

[Bammerboy321]

Keon Ellis did decent in 17 minutes of play. Had a few good defensive stops. Only 4 pts though

Hopefully this dude can recover and start playing again. He was pretty damn good in the games he played early on.

Hope you guys have been watching the Hornets lately. Miller got back from injury and is tearing it up. Sexton has turned into a good role player for them.

I am glad to hear about guys who have worn the brand do well professionally.

I've been watching. Hoping to catch a Hornets gane when I go to Charlotte for work. Been trying to align the two. With Kneupple, Sexton, and Miller, they have a nice young core. Still not a fan of Ball, so not sure how he fits into the other three's gane, but curious to your thoughts.

Waived by the Milwaukee Bucks, Mark Sears joins NBA G League affiliate

Think they have the #1 offensive this month. They've been a ton of fun to follow.

Ball is definitely struggling to score more this season, but it could be a product of having better players around him, so his usage rate is down. This his average is as low as its been since his rookie season. He to me is still a volume scorer, so he'll pop off from time to time (like he did vs the Lakers). He still leads the team in scoring average, is third in defensive rebounds, and has the highest assist rate.
