Just looking at box scores, no Bam, Butler or Giannis in that game, no Luka, KP or Ja in their game, Jaylen Brown and Lillard were out of their game, Towns was out last night, and of course Kawhi, Klay, Murray, Porter Jr, Simmons, Kyrie, etc, have been out. LeBron was out for awhile. We had Ayton out and now Booker plus a few other deeper bench players.
The Warriors were not missing anyone else tonight though and lost to the Spurs, so we are tied with them now. They probably get Klay and Wiseman back within a week....Booker for us too.
Should be a fun ride the rest of the year. I'm still interested in seeing who is traded and what team tries to make a final push.
I'm still waiting for that Simmons trade. My guess is either Sacramento for Fox or Bed-Stuy for Kyrie, of course he (and KD/Beard) have to agree to that but it makes a ton of sense imo.
I don't think we see a Dame trade yet, but this summer they might finally pull the trigger. That's also another Simmons possibility if they fold and decide that a CJ+Roco combo is good enough.
