Without Stewart, it will be interesting to see how our interior defense looks in this one. We'll probably need both rookies to play well for us to have a chance to cover that spread.

Kahwi is supposed to make his return tonight (NBA Today). I usually stop watching basketball by 9ish, but might watch a bit of the game tonight, and the rest of it first thing tomorrow night.

It'd be a good win. Curious to see rotation since Stew will be re-evaluated in 2-3 weeks.

I'm curious to see the starting lineup.

I predict bourbon Manhattans, a comfortable buzz, and a Pistons win.

I'm guaranteed to win two legs of that parlay.

Looks like the starters are.

Killian - Ivey - Bey - Bojan - Bagley

It'll be interesting to see how Bagley does in a game where he's going to get plenty of touches and a bunch of minutes. We'll likely need a 20 and 10 night from him as that is the worst defensive starting front court the league has ever seen..... we'll need to hit a bunch of shots and beat them on the boards to give ourselves a chance.

That's going to be ugly. I don't know if I can stomach this. Bey/Bojan/Bagley with Hayes to compliment them.

Clippers should score a bazillion points against our starters

Some sluggish offensive plays and poor TOs, but overall our defensive effort/hustle/fight has been solid.... Clippers with only 9 points in 6 minutes.

Some head scratchers from Bagley early.

What's crazy, in today's NBA... we just played 6 minutes and the Clippers attempted 0 threes and we've got just one from Killian.

Ivey needs to abuse Jackson every time they match up he can't stay in front of him at all

The crazy thing about Bojan, is that he's been a great shooter but he really has the entire bag of tricks in his bag when it comes to creating for himself. He's got franchise go-to player offensive skillset.

Interesting list of players in the league averaging at least 20 PPG, 50% shooting, and 40% 3 point shooting.

Curry, SGA, Bojan, Grant, and Mitchell
