Wow, no preseason minutes, but he's good enough to start right away? It will be interesting to watch him tonight.

Wiseman is gonna look very good very quickly imo. Warriors always play to their strengths, wont be long before casual fans are saying Wiseman is better than Ayton
Re: Around the League: Week 1 12/22-12/27
I think there will be a real discussion to be had after the season. I really liked Wiseman as a prospect, more than Ayton. Wish we could've gotten to see a full season from him.

This is the eve of the opening night of a season that will determine Aytons trajectory. If he doesn’t make significant strides with regard to offensive aggression and desire this year, he’ll have peaked for the most part. If he does, he’ll be on his way to a max deal.

I know we roast Mori for his Warriors fandom and these two guys divide opinion sometimes for different reasons but as a fan of the game, happy to see both them back and hoping they play the full season

The Nets looks impressive.
Re: Around the League: Week 1 12/22-12/27
Kelly's a great fit for the Ws, glad he ended up there.

The Warriors aren't good. It's pretty easy to see why. Curry, a kid, Oubre and a bunch of scrubs.
Edit: Oh, and Wiggins...

Yeah, either the Ws are really bad or the Nets are going to be pretty good. KD came out early as if to say, "I'm back." Looked awesome.
Go Suns!

It's both, IMO. The Warriors won't make the playoffs in the West and the Nets could be the #1 seed in the East.

Oubre and Wiggins 4 for 20; each 2 for 10.
