This one?

Fuck ESPN for overplaying that trash. You couldn't escape it.

(Obviously joking)

NBC has a license to use it, so yes:

[jeebus]

They use the same song during the olympics and other internation bball events over the years, so they were smart to not lose the license. but yeah, so ready to get this shit going.

 

[TDomination]

I'm watching tonight mostly for the music, fuckers.

 

[ace3g]

Not a good start for the AV department...

 

[NASpurs]

The theme song was cool the first itme. Listening to it every time they go to commercials grows old.

Rockets O looks like ass so far

 

[Neuromancer]

Do we have enough people here that watch the nationally televised games to have game threads for them? Or should we just use this thread for NBC games?

yeah in the first few possession there were 2 Amen corner threes and then a long Sengun 3

They are playing the best defensive team in the NBA though so maybe their offense won't look as bad against other teams. But yeah looks rough so far. Lot of defections, Sengun dribbled off his foot, etc

 

[Neuromancer]

Amen carrying the Rockets so far

First game is pretty badass, but fuck the second game. Really sick of the NBA pushing Curry vs LeBron when Jokic, SGA, Giannis, Wemby, Brunson, and Amen are way more interesting to watch these days. At least Luka makes the Lakers watchable but enough with GSW.

And LeBron is too butthurt to even play

 

[Neuromancer]

Rockets starting to tighten it up. Some really nice plays for Amen and really nice find by Sengun on that last play. Chet is playing really well for OKC. Everyone else is tepid

eh, lakers were the 3rd seed in the west after the 2 teams playing right now, and Luka is quite clearly in that Jokic/SGA/Giannis/Wemby tier of watchability

as for Warriors, i agree with you more there, but Steph is still wildly popular and they were did take their game to a different level after trading for Butler. but i dont think that team is particularly fun to watch

 

[spurraider21]

lol eason. literally flailing after not getting an extension

 

[Kick-Stand]

Great matchup so far

Yeah Warriors are nowhere near as much fun to watch as the Nuggets. Not seeing Jokic opening night sucking fucks.

The AWS ad logo on the court is pretty funny considering what happened today.
