The Nets are rolling again — it’s 25-11 and the ball is moving all over the floor. The Nets already have 7 assists and they’re getting a lift from everybody. Nic Claxton off to another nice start with six points and six rebounds. His college coach Tom Crean is here in Dallas. – 10:01 PM

Watching the NBA app in Oklahoma tonight. Getting the Nets’ feed, not the Mavericks’ feed. But no matter what feed you get, it’s not as good as the feeds the Nets are getting for easy buckets so far. Nets lead 15-11. – 9:57 PM

195-pound Edmond Sumner probably isn’t the ideal matchup on Luka Doncic. – 9:57 PM

Utah should be close to full strength tonight for the opener. Only thing in doubt is the availability of freshman wing Luka Tarlac, who re-tweaked a lower-body injury in practice on Friday.
Marco Anthony will be a go and is a safe bet to start tonight. – 6:18 PM
