Man, this some serious WOY.

Reeks of resting for scheduled reasons. That kinda chit always bites you in the ass.

Suspecting it's something like this: Nunn, Dragic, Robinson, Ariza, and Dedmon?

Maybe Spo saves Dragic and starts Okpala or Vincent?

This is the 9 we should roll with tonight.


LMAO Precious. Agreed though.

Anyway, I think it can be entertaining watching a scrubs v scrubs game with no expectations. Games lately have been stressing me out, this one won’t. It’s a joke lineup both ways so all you can do is laugh.

Our fans have such high expectations for our rookie. Achiuwa will take a while before he's any kind of factor. That's why we hired Bjelica and Dedmon. My frustration is more with Okpala who is two years along now. He should at least hit wide-open corner 3's.

Dedmon has calmed my concerns about the front court. I know we're not winning anything with this team, but I think the weakness now is the backcourt. I'd like at least one player we can put in to generate some offense through shooting and slashes. We have a roster space still, right? Someone like Isaiah Thomas would fit nicely. I know he's nothing like before, but in short minutes maybe we can hide his defense and get net positive scoring?

If OP wins this one, we need to give more respect. I'm conflicted because I want to win, but I love trashing OP. Kelly Olynyk putting up 30 tonight will be hard to see though.

Dedmon should get around 20 boards tonight if he gets to play a lot.

Is Spo seriously stupid enough to think he can afford to rest Jimmy AND Bam? He couldn’t beat the Wolves with both I’m pretty sure he’s gonna lose tonight. Seriously what is Bam even out for? This team is a joke they need to get top 6

Seriously this team is fighting to make the playoffs and stay out of the play in and Spo doesn’t even try to win? Way to motivate them Sporon

Precious just tried to do something very nasty.

Of course he failed, but I like the effort nonetheless.

Nunn is energized
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington
