They should remove the 3 pt line, just to make the "Classic Matchups", REALLY classic. :lol:

The Knicks are pretenders. At best, they're the Derozan era Raptors.

No official announcements or anything like that but he’s not mentioned on the injury report which is good news

Got to clog up Barrett in the opencourt. He will be tough to slow. I would use Scottie on him.

Birch has to start. Achuiwa has no quickness advantage on Robinson.


I might actually switch it the other way - start OG on Barrett, and put Barnes on Randle. See if Barnes' size can swallow him up a bit more. Either way, it's a nice option to have, and they might end up trading off during the game anyway.

I would expect they'll play a bit more straight up against the Knicks, so that they don't give up open shots to Fournier and Kemba. But Trent and Fred should be able to play them both fairly well as long as they're not needed to go double Randle too often.

Champagnie is listed as ‘available’ on the injury report. I think they want to give him the chance to play in front of family and friends if the chance to do so presents itself.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

I expect a loss. If we win, Barnes dropped 30.

Knicks look pretty impressive, like a 50 win team.

So if we go there and win it's a great win.

Wow! RealGM is finally complete as a one stop B-ball site for me now.

So happy to see not only did they add live scores but they just added play-by-play and box score to it. :D

Maybe by 2040 they’ll finally implement dark mode.

Not the first time I've seen you mention this so, I've gotta ask: why are you so determined to have dark mode on this site?

Typical of any Tom Thibodeau team; good for regular season & tired players By playoff time
