I'm a little confused, maybe someone can clarify this for me. what do they mean by "air"? I thought 1140 was a radio station

It is radio, it just means to broadcast, because you know the signals go through the air. If they had said "show", now that would have been weird.

I think four of the games are going to be on the NBA TV channel.

Edit: Yeah, the games on 7/12, 7/14, 7/16 & 7/18 will be on NBA TV. One of the radio games fills the gap on 7/13 vs. the Lakers. Unfortunately looks like neither for 7/17 vs. the Bulls, but maybe CruzDude and Bajaden will still be there to report.

Hopefully the rookies perform better in the Vegas summer league... so far they have been a no show in orlando outside Paul George and a few second rounders like Harongady and Stephenson.

Unless Cuz shows up weighing 300+, I think he's going to tear it up. Whiteside will may have trouble with the whistle happy summer league refs.

When he was examined before the signing yesterday, Cousins had shaved a couple points off his body fat. Not where he needs to be, but moving in the right direction.
