    Out in Atlantic City working and staying at The Revel hotel. Beautiful place but man!!!!!! Yesterday I checked in and was watching HBO. Just got back to my room and it is now gone from the guide!!!! In the past few hours they lost all their HBO/ESPN channels! Right as The HCP was about to sit down with some hoes and watch the this game!

    In the same call that I found this out, they tried to charge me $6 to deliver ice to my room! What the hell! #roadtrippin

    Dame won't make it, and he'll be pissed all season.

    Fantastic news for us.

    On another note, I didn't know Monty was the US Asst. I'm really happy for him.

    Irving starting over Lillard. Hope Dame learned a lot at this camp, and uses being cut as motivation to school these guys next year.

    Anybody want to hook me up with their WatchESPN account info just for tonight? I'm on DIRECTV at home and that doesn't work with it.

    OK, Steph Curry and Rose should be the starting back-court. Curry nails a deep 3, then Rose goes end-to-end again for a lay-up after a rebound.

    Anthony Davis is going to be a monster (if he isn't already) on the defensive end. Quick hands to go along with his length and good instincts. Could be scary.

    Lillard is in now. Irving didn't do much, but then Dame misses a lay-up w/out hitting the rim.
