Game is being broadcast on FSNO and NBATV.

FSNO will carry the Heat broadcast, it will not be Joel and AD.

Bledsoe, Redick, Gabriel are OUT. Adams is questionable.

I predict we see a good bit of Melli, Hayes, Hart, Lonzo, NAW.

What are you guys looking forward to seeing the most?

Me:

1) How does Zion look? Is the difference noticeable in terms of his health and conditioning?

2) What does our "basic" defense look like?

3) What does Kira look like versus other team's backups?

Looking forward to seeing some semblance of a half court offense.

How Zion looks

and

Offensive scheme - Does the offense really flow through Zion and Ingram now compared to the everyone has a green light offense of Gentry.

1. Zion at 100%

2. NAW, Lonzo, Hart, Kira

3. Melli, Hayes

4. Overall defense

Specifically Lonzo/ NAW's decision making, Hart's effectiveness, and Kira's abilities against pros.

Coach said it'll be almost like a normal rotation minutes wise. I know a few guys are out but he said about 30 minutes for starters and probably no more than 10 guys out there.
I'd like to see how zion looks obviously.
But if jaxson starts then I'm interested to see him. It seems the team has brought in a ton of centers or bigs to play and Hayes will have to fight for minutes.
I want to see how he handles that challenge.

That might have to do with having no more than 10 rotational guys available today. The Pelicans are short handed and the rotational players needs all the minutes they can get right now.

1. Defense
2. NAW-Need him to step up big this year (unless Kira beats him out)
3. Lonzo-How does he look in half court (with Bled out it'll be interesting)

If Adams is out, we only have 10 guys on the roster

Sons who reside in Nola, if you don’t have Cox, how are you watching the games this year?

ETA: Just saw the other thread about this, so never mind. Flock up, Sons.

Stan Van Gundy says Eric Bledsoe had an excused absence that took him out of market and missed a test and has to have a series of negative tests to return. JJ Redick had contact tracing with someone who had a false positive.

Both should be fine moving forward.
