I know it's the first game of preseason but man this brings back agony of last season. Start off hot go cold and colder into the 3rd. Poor perimeter defense. And AD and cousins played well into the third

Ill say this now. We know AD and Cousins are gonna do what they do.

We NEED Jrue to play lights out all year if we make a push. He has the talent, he just needs to show it and play MUCH better defense on oppoosing SGs.

Jrue made his brother look like he would of been a better use of that money this game.

He absolutely needs to step it up.

He looked like a fringe starter, not a guy that is supposed to be on the cusp of his prime.

Scanning reddit for a better stream and i found it. Its legit and they normally will ask for 4.99 a day or 14 a month, but if you sign up, ask to pay by PayPal, it doesnt currently work and as a sign of goodwill they are just giving you three free days for free and extending it indefinitely til it is fixed.

Found it at halftime and the quality was basically 1080p


there are multiple free sites that stream 1080p for free

You can call me stupid but our stars played well into the 3rd and they were losing to a bottom 3 team. Yea, I'm gonna be a little worried. I doubt many teams will shoot that hot against the Pels, but I want to see this team have success for the first time in years. That was an annoying and discouraging second half. Maybe it was just poor effort due to a preseason game.

They didn't go cold in the 3rd, they went away from what they're good at. In the first 2 minutes of the 3rd AD/DC both draw fouls 18+ feet away from the basket. Had they kept using them to attack instead of going on a jump shooting spree they'd have held the lead and been in the penalty with more than 5 minutes to go. They can get the other team's bigs in foul trouble every night if they just focus on what they're best at. And when you end up with AD/DC being defended by the backups it doesn't matter how bad the perimeter defense is against most teams.

Starters looked great to start the game and that is absolutely all I care about in the preseason.

Team won't go anywhere without quality minutes from the reserves. This is going to be an up and down season. I am not liking what I'm seeing from Crawford, Clark, and Miller. We need better IQ from these guys.

I understand your concern, but I don't think you would have said this if we would have won the game. Our starters dominated the first and we played better when they were on the court. Our 6th man Moore played solid. Our starters didn't play any defense in the 2nd half. That is something that does need to get fixed, but I like how we played regardless of who it was against.

Hints please. I'll support the team by going to a handful of games, but would rather not pay ~$50/month for PSVue when it will be used pretty much exclusively for Pels games.

Two guys playing their first game with this team, and Grits legitimately may not play meaningful minutes when our backcourt is healthy. Clark had a few passes tonight that were SO bad that it had to be miscommunication. He would have never seen the floor with the Warriors if he were that bad moving the ball. Clark will be fine. Miller, no idea yet. He definitely made me think about getting Ennis back from "Mempis".

Most of them are plagued with ads and consistency issues. Can often spend the first several minutes of a program just trying to weed out the crap from the quality.

I would never pay for them, but as someone that has streamed a ton while on travel, it was the best stream I have ever seen. Never buffered, never dropped in quality.


Just passing it along in case the next one isnt broadcast either. With the gesture going on its free as well. You don't ever actually put any personal info in if that wasnt clear.

Most people I know check into reddit's NBAstreams sub and go from there.

They tend to have a number of options for every game, but it is hit and miss.

Don't know why we haven't yet.

I mean short and long term it's a depth piece that can play a solid 15-20 minutes. Even on most playoff teams

I've used that in the past with success, but I would need to be able to stream it onto my TV from my laptop while still having access to my laptop to post on TD. My Steam link thingy may be able to do this.

Would the $120 League Pass work? I see that they have blackout rules, so I wonder if I would need a VPN on top of that. I just hate having this PSVue bill to watch LSU football (don't even care anymore) and the Pels. I also don't want to struggle finding Joel + Wesley feeds. Joel is my life, and I whenever I question what all of the insane people in the world are thinking, I like hearing Wesley confirm how awesome fries are.

No idea how it will be for Pels games, but that was a quick, easy, and great quality stream of the Yankee/Twins game.

I think I'll keep PSVue for another month or two, and if the illegal streams work out fine, I'll ditch it.

In case anyone was curious the Bulls shot 45.7% from the 3 point line tonight (16 for 35) and 50.6% on FGA. I think they call that out kicking your coverage

Like everyone said, it’s just preseason but that bulls roster is bad. Need to step it up

Do you have AT&T for phone service? Their bundle with unlimited data getting you $25 off DirecTV Now and free HBO seems like a pretty good deal. If they’re still running that promo when my promotional rate is up on PS Vue in December I might switch.
