It's that time of year now. Time for a new Around the League Thread since Pre-Season just started.

For your viewing pleasure, I mean, archiving.

Jeff Withey had 8 FTAs in 5 mins yesterday? It's a weird preseason thing.

Marvin Williams once had a bunch of FT attempts in a preseason game too.

Puh-leaze! Keep asking him every press conference BECAUSE of him being prickly. Don't let him shut things down by being a jerk. Don't reward him! He should just put up with it. Give the same rehearsed answer each time that sounds sincere, like, "I'm feeling the best I have felt in the last two years. Ready to go and 100%." Say those EXACT words EVERY time.

It's better if Durant is exposed.

DEN 105, HOU 85

CLE 106, MEM 76

NY 122, MIL 97

I haven't been able to check the other box scores, but New York and Cleveland won theirs very balanced with their stars having bad statistical games, at least scoring and/or shooting wise.

Mills is +39, Lin is -37.

Wow, you know my thoughts on Lin, but that was bad. Maybe they would have won if he were just -16?

What a slow Thursday and Friday - is it always like this? 3 games tonight and one tomorrow (ours).

From last week:



Thu, Nov 12

Justise Winslow played 27 minutes off the bench on Thursday with seven points, five rebounds and one assist.


Advice: Alec Burks made Winslow look like he belonged in Family Matters instead of on an NBA court during the first half, but Winslow did get it figured out after halftime. He plays three positions and should have several avenues for minutes for coach Erik Spoelstra. That said, he isn't a great per-minute player, so he's not quite worth a pickup in standard leagues.

Khalil Okafor either went to the wrong team/location or is immature or is off to a really bad start. He went to a nightclub and had a gun pulled on him, he went to another nightclub another week and punched a guy on video (though it being on video does make it worse act), and then he got pulled over for driving 108 MPH on a bridge. We haven't even play 20 games yet.
