    Hey man, I still remember being taken aback the first time I actually saw Tania on a sports talk show. Had no idea what she looked like until then after only seeing her tweets. Let’s just say, there is no shame in thirsting!

    I’ll be watching for sure. Even with no AD or LeBron so much of our team is new we’re guaranteed to get to see most of them and get our first look at their games in P&G. And even if the end of our bench gets the most action that is still intriguing because we will likely get to see THT get more minutes than he ever has with the big squad. We’ll also likely get a look at how Cacok has progressed as he may see actual time this year should any of our bigs miss time or even if we do some load managing on back to backs, and we could get a look at what players like McKinnie and Simpson have to offer.

    agreed, let's see the progress that these younger guys have made, in addition to the new guys. just keep AD/Lebron on ice until they are ready to emerge from their winter slumber...

    Of course I'll be watching. I know what Lebron and AD can do.

    I'm way more interested in the rest of the team right now, although I do want to see how Lebron and AD work with the rest of the squad soon.

    Without a doubt this will be the most important game in Clippers history, their preseason title must be preserved along with their opening day and Christmas Day championships...

    Yeah. They can hang their pre-season and Christmas day banners right next to Taylor Swift's.

    Absolutely watching. Can't wait!! I'd like to see Schroder out there as well as Trez who will want to send a little message to his exes even if it's only preseason.

    Guess the opening lineup. Zubac will probably start so who do we put at the 5? Morris at 4. Kuz at 3. Matthews at 2. Schroder at 1. Giving KCP the vet off time too am imagining. Not that Matthews isn't a vet. Frank knows though that people at LB in Game Time need to see Matthews.

    Why not Gasol at the 5? Are we resting him and I missed it?

    He's old? :D

    That could be offset (see above) by Game Time folks on LB's need to see him if the FO wants to keep this influential site happy.

    I’m the type of person who, when the sports seasons were at their regular schedule, would prioritize Lakers preseason games over Dodgers playoff games in October.

    So yes, I’m absolutely watching lol. It is always incredibly exciting to see some of our new players for the first time, even just role players.

    Did have to pick up a shift tonight, but hopefully things are slow and I can watch live, if not I’ll watch a recording later.

    It seems like we were just celebrating a championship and preseason is already starting? Seems weird.

    Oh I do that s*** too. Lakers any kind of action over Dodgers now. During playoffs in Bubble the Dodgers in playoffs got time shift as needed priority behind the Lakers. Plus am not forgetting they stiffed me for 6 years or whatever with no DirecTV access.

    Not entirely unexpected, but that’s a lot of players that are sitting out. Do we even have enough bodies to play, or are we going to have to play the active players a bunch of minutes?

    I am down to see a bunch of Schroder/Harrell and THT, but that’s probably not ideal for their health to ramp them up so fast either. Figured it would make sense to play our entire team, just spreading out the minutes so nobody plays that much.

    I expect an a** whipping non the less. Set the tone now. No losses to the Clappers this year. Not one game, real or not.
