No Carroll tonight probably. Going to be interesting to see who steps up in his place. Pretty sure we'll see Dudley take some of his PF minutes, but what of the SF minutes?

He's been a real big contributor to our success this season.

Wonder if Kenny plays small with Napier and Spencer in the backcourt and Caris playing the Swiss army knife role of Demarre?

Jared Dudley most likely at PF.

We are going to see alot of RHJ/Graham during this road trip. we will see alot of fire power for opposing wings and Rodi will need to be managed a bit and with carroll banged up. we will for sure see one or both in the clippers game which is the second of a back to back

Carroll hasn't played SF recently. We should see Dudley take his minutes with RHJ on standby in case Paul George is playing well.

Zero reason to go small or go crazy with the matchups. Crabbe and LeVert can start on PG. We can adjust if he starts going off.

We'll probably see Napier and RHJ and funky lineups during our back to backs. Russell needs a rest. Same with Ed Davis.

Basically this. Carroll has been splitting mins at the 4 with Kurucs.

If Carroll is out, that should mean that Dudley/RHJ get mins when Kurucs is on the bench.

In case??? George is coming off of two relatively quiet games and the last game he dropped nearly 50 on us. It's going to be a long night.

According to Kamaze - Allen Crabbe has been a MENACE on defense. He should keep PG in place

im not too worried about George and WB. they will get theres. limit the threes to role guys... grant schroeder, morris, abrines, nadar....

wetbrook with a triple double on 10-27 shooting even with an efficient 30+ from george can still be a win if we play well offensively and their role guys are shut down.

we have played OKC well in the past too. im not super pessmesitic with our chances

I feel much better about this road trip as a whole since our lineup change. The team makes a lot more sense now. Our 2nd unit is rough for a lot of teams to handle. We're relying less on LeVert while he gets his rhythm back instead of force feeding him. No Graham/RHJ means the worst shooter we're playing is LeVert - who's not someone you can just ignore.

The trip is still brutal but I'd be really disappointed if we're not competitive.

Lets get it!

I’m loving the defensive intensity

Wouldn't have expected this sort of defensive start. Just swarming the ball and getting good results from it.

I like how we’re patiently and systematically progressing through our offensive options.

None of our shots were forced. The only shot I was meh on was Russell’s transition 3, but even then he was trying to get his teammates to run with him to force the defense to collapse yet when he saw no one was going to run he just shot a deep 3 on the right wing. If it was later in the game at a more crucial point, I’d be mad but considering that it was early and it was a 3+ possession game, I didn’t mind it.

LOL at Hubie still calling the Nets “New Jersey”. I know for most of his life the Nets were in New Jersey, but Brooklyn is on the front of the jersey and they’ve been in borough for 7 years now.

So who's playing a drinking game every time Hubie says New Jersey?

Hahaha so Kenny DOES notice when teams are destroying our zone.
