Game 1 now.

Harrison drive and kick for asst.

Are people going to watch this? Considering we don't have a rookie, Frank's not playing, and it's meaningless.

Man, it sucks not having a draft oick in SL.  Harrison is the only guy we have invested anything in...

Just posted something about that.  The roster is hot garbage.  Not having a draft pick in there really makes a difference in interest.

We have Marco though so we can enjoy watching him get blown by on defense over and over.

And right after i posted that, harrison got caught in the air on two consecutive possessions and turned it over both times for easy transition baskets.  Bye, Harrison.

I doubt two possessions in the first SL game will decide a player's fate

No it doesn't, but i wasnt a big fan last year either.  It's now almost halftime and he has looked like one of the worst players on the floor so far.

We have the 6th-10th-best players on the floor at all times

I was kind of hoping someone would emerge beyond random players splitting pairs of free throws and the occasional accidental basket

Probably played in better games against former college players when I was in high school

Deshaun Thomas can play

Yeah, I tried to post this exact thing sometime in the second quarter, but I was on my phone and the quote system/formatting messed up so I couldn't...  I always thought he was just a hustle/role player guy who maxed out his potential in college...  I also didn't remember him being able to shoot from deep.  So, that was a pleasant surprise.

I'm also interested to see how Paul plays over the rest of the week...  As far as Harrison, he is the same player I thought he was last year, difference is in this SL, he doesn't have several NBA-level players to play off of, and it shows.  I was hoping he had progressed some since last year with a full season practicing and sporadically playing in the league, but he doesn't look good at all right now.

Russell is so immature with the way he handles himself.

Just gave a post game interviewing and the first things to of his mouth, "I played like sh*t"
