Kemba (knees are done)
Fournier (we have actually faced him in the playoffs as the 2nd/3rd option)
RJ Barrett (nothing there yet)
Randle(.298 FG% .333 3P% in his playoffs debut as the man)

5-1 is a great record, but I just cannot see the threat yet

If it's just a jammed thumb, play on.

Players play through these all year long, it's not a big deal.

FWIW, Noel's been listed as questionable the past 3 games.

That he's out there at all is a great sign. I hope that he plays.

We need to see Scottie in the playoffs ASAP. FVV and Pascal experienced playoffs from year 1.

I said something similar to this in the two thread and received no response.

Win here would humble the Knicks

Those "fans" are really funny because 3 out of current 5 starters were part of the 2nd best overall team 2 years ago.
The 4th starter was playing on his last legs(Gasol). Kyle must have really played at LeBron James-level to carry that team to the 2nd seed overall :lol:

. Those 3 starters are much better players now.

New Yorkers man... just tape scotties thumb up rest him against a shutter team.

Scottie got the Mamba mentality. Jammed thumb ain't gonna stop this man. Unless team doctors force him out.

Also, as great as Scottie has been, his impact stats have been rather underwhelming. Our defence has actually been significantly better with him on the bench (6.2 points) and he has the 2nd worst NetRTG among regular rotation players. We're not getting carried to wins by Scottie and, while our chances go down assuming he's out tonight, the Knicks aren't some juggernaut team and their unsustainable three-point shooting (38% or better in all but one game while averaging 17 3FGM on 40%) is bound to revert to the mean eventually.

Who cares? Watch the game because you enjoy it, for the reasons you enjoy it.

If people want to watch their favourite players, if that's what brings them happiness, who is anyone to say otherwise?

....Scottie's impact has been underwhelming. That's the best thing I've read all day. Scottie is better than everyone behind him in the rotation, so yah, we're a worse team when he's out. Regardless of what your numbers say.

I don't care, but why do some feel the need to trash our team and say "blowout L" because Scottie is out? I also don't feel like reading all of these "not watching" posts because one player (albeit the most exciting one on the team) is doubtful to play when I know most of them will actually end up watching the game because they ARE fans or, even worse, not watch the game then make assumptions from the box score if we lose.

I didn't say Scottie's impact has been underwhelming. He has been either our best or 2nd best player via the eye test. What I did say was that his impact stats tell a different story and we have actually been better with Scottie on the bench. They aren't "my" numbers I'm pulling out of my ass. They're readily available to anyone on virtually every NBA stat-tracking website. I'm not making things up.
