Half: Nets 59, Wizards 42
Kevin Durant (18 PTS), Patty Mills (11 PTS), James Harden (8 PTS, 6 ASTS) & the Nets have cooled down offensively. Finishing defensive possessions though is going to be emphasized going into the half. Brooklyn has already given up 7 offensive rebounds. – 8:32 PM

“I just ask officials to call what they see”
James Harden agreed with Steve Nash he’s “poster boy” for NBA placing emphasis on calling “non-basketball” moves.
I talked to 15 people about this going into regular season.

With a win vs. the Brooklyn Nets tonight, the Wizards would start the season 3-0 for the first time since 2017-18.
Additionally, this would mark just the fourth time since the NBA/ABA merger Washington will have started a season 3-0 (2017-18, 2005-06, 1978-79). – 2:19 PM
