Gordon Hayward is getting cut tonight for sure.

Irving was great in Rose's absence. DeRozen & Drummond making the roster decisions more difficult with they way they stepped up. Hayward seems like the only certain cut right now.

Also loved Boogie's physicality. Handful of positive plays on defense & rebounded well.

Rose / Irving / Curry / Lillard
Harden / Thompson
Gay / Korver
Faried / Parsons
Davis / Boogie

That's probably who I'd bring.

If I'm Coach K I use tomorrow's game against Puerto Rico to maximize the opportunity for the fringe guys & deep reserves to make their case. That means sitting Curry, Irving, Harden, Thompson, Faried & Davis. Rose needs some minutes to help determine how healthy he is.

Lillard, Rose
DeRozen, Hayward
Parsons, Korver
Gay, Plumlee
Cousins, Drummond

Final roster announced tonight. DeRozen, Drummond & Plumlee make the team. Korver, Hayward, Parsons & Lillard cut. DeRozen played his way onto the team & they obviously felt they'll need every big. I like it.

Irving, Rose
Curry, DeRozen
Harden, Thompson
Faried, Gay, Plumlee
Davis, Cousins , Drummond

Gotta eat crow big time about saying the 5 bigs wouldn't make it.

Aussies, I thought a lot of the games were going to be telecast live on ABC, but I can't see any on the Foxtel schedule. Anyone know what channel they will be broadcast on, if at all?

EDIT: Ugh never mind it's on ABC 2 on **** FTA. Damn...

Apologies if this was answered elsewhere, but for Americans is there a way to watch these games without NBATV?

So apparently the only provider that doesn't let you watch espn3 is directv. I need to drop them so bad.

Kyle Korver got cut and Rudy Gay is on our national team. Not a question or anything, I just wanted to point out that this is a thing that happened.
