I can't seem to get over the hump against you. I've recently added Kennard as a starter, so hoping that spreads the floor a little more for DeRozan, Siakam, and Trae.

It sucks but **** happens. For now I'll try to tread water until Harrell is back and keep the 2 seed over Dallas. Thomas Bryant and Jock Landale being my only Cs is kind of a worst case scenario. I don't even have any preset lineups for that situation because it basically means my team is useless. Allen will be back towards the end of the first round, so I think best case scenario I get lucky and the series is 1-2 when he comes back, and we can close it out at full health.

If I wasn't in a seeding battle with Dallas and Charlotte I would've sat my guys, but as is I need all the wins I can get. Especially since my first round matchup matters way more now that I'll be without Jarrett Allen for at least 3 games of the series.

Yea HCA becomes all the more important and that’s the dilemma.

That's why I'm happy I was winning out the gate. Dallas has been on my ass since they made those trades and Harrell went down.

defense? Outside of Caruso...I think one too many moves...I thought you were picking up your play with Drummond and moved him. He was a good piece for what you needed. Gafford defense is in the 50's...

Bish with the early sim before I could get a rotation in lol. Might've taught me some things.

1. Matt Thomas might be as great as I assumed he'd be in the sim. I'm in a deep playoff race but he might need more minutes.
2. Jock > Bryant? I has my suspicions but this is kinda cementing it. Thomas Bryant has been bad for us chucking up all those misses. I'm just happy he's 45% from deep this year so he'll be a shooter the rest of his contract.
3. Might be time for small ball. With Allen out my defense will struggle unless I get more guys out there. He was my only real shot blocker anyway. Maybe I'll give Jock a chance though.
