Jonathan Isaac is out
Al Fariq Aminu is out
Michael Carter Williams is out
DJ Augustine is out

Evan Fournier is questionable

Mohammed Bamba is on minutes restriction
Aaron Gordon is playing hobbled

This might get real ugly early.

That's what we thought when we played OKC in Oklahoma and we got the W pretty easily with half the team out. You never know.

That tail bone is gonna be tender for awhile. He can perhaps play sometime next week earliest houston but he'll be feeling that tenderness till March even.

We are a 9.5 to 10 point favorites. I would say this is an easy double digit win.

It'll be crazy to try to figure out which sub .500 team we will lose to first this season.

I’d like to see LBJ and AD both sit this one out, use this as a try-out game while winning.

If I were Vogel, I’d milk the KCP/DH pick and roll with the second unit. The two have a chemistry thing going where they don’t need to talk. They’re developing into a good offensive duo, I think by thinking alike.

I’d sit AD and LBJ, and start:
PG: Caruso. SG: Bradley. SF: Green. PF: Kuzma. C: McGee.

AD would have been nice tonight to neutralize Vucevic

This is not looking good...

We're off to a slow start shooting and they are making their open shots. This will even out but we do need to step up the defense.

Sometimes Dwight looks more athletic this year than he did in 2013

Hate when we play the magic

Down 6.... could have been worse. We need to get the defensive intensity elevated.
