gotta assume that adams/kanter/oladipo will be on minute counts too not point in risking your rotational players in a meaningless game with no westbrook but I guess the young players have to suit up to have enough ample bodies.
Should I be looking for a lot of
Christon
Singler
Grant
Collison
Sabonis
lineups?

Collison might not survive that many minutes lol. I'd guess Dipo plays a bunch, Adams and Kanter probably around usual. Grant and Sabonis at the 4 and I suppose a good amount of Singler and Semaj. It's gonna be really ugly offense at the least.

I have been watching the wolves a bit recently since I have been hoping they can catch a W with any of these last few games. I wouldn't be so sure on the under. KAT and Wiggins score a ton but the wolves even though coached by thibs play absolutely zero defense and have zero interior defense. Lakers were scoring in the paint at will vs the t-pups. I'm just hoping you don't have enough offense to withstain a few scoring droughts cause the twolves can score.

There won't be scoring droughts to worry about because I don't see how they even score. Abrines is still injured pretty sure, so they've got no shooting, no playmaking outside Dipo, and no defense without Roberson. With Russ on the bench the offense is statistically well worse than Philly normally, now take out those other guys.

Has any player had a 30pt game this season besides Russ? If not, will it happen today?
Trying to find points of interest

Victor came really close i believe. He scored 29 if I recall. If he doesn't score at least 25 pts today, there is no hope for him to be a secondary option.

Are they going to play tomorrow? I think it was a good idea to let WB rest a bit. He really needs it. Hope Oladipo can play some basketball. We need him to turn into ''dipo'' playoff mode like dion did last year
Some updates Mcdermott and Abrines?

If for some crazy reason we end up winning, all rockets fan are gonna post ''OKC roster is underrated, they are good without Westbrook''.
