Don't think so. And our kids aren't helping. He will need to work even harder :lol:

I don't think SGA and Dort will be out. We need 8 players so more likely they rest Al Horford and play SGA or Dort (or both). They looked ''ok'' in pregame shootaround

Ideal scenario - Horford + SGA out, Dort in. Think that should still lean towards a Wolves win.

If Theo is cleared to play, the could rest still al. I think Hall only missed one game before being cleared from health and safety protocols.

I give up on trying to understand the health and safety protocols after the KD situation tonight

We seriously have gotten to the point Roby looks better on average than Baze.

He’s probably the biggest disappointment of the season for me. Since we are rebuilding, we shouldn’t be giving up on 20 year olds but I can’t help but wonder if he’s going to be a part of the long term future. Some of these guys develop late like Christian wood so you never want to dump a guy too early.

I'm just curious why people post tweets like this. Lots of people in the media do this. I mean, if you have access to twitter and are interested in following the game, wouldn't you just watch it or check the score on espn? Just something I've wondered.

SGA could score 50 if he wants.

Still like our chances to lose if Russell plays but he's doubtful :(

All things considered, I’ll take a split with Minnesota. I’m still mad about the Houston win.

I think it means the first two are new updates and in case you missed it, horford is still out.

yeah guess even with an healthy KAT and DLo playing well, the wolves are a lock for worst seed in the West.

I still like our odds to finish with the 4th worst record after Wolves, Wizards and Pistons. A bottom 5 record is ''fine'' even if not ideal.

East has too many bad teams. I don’t see it. We have to hope the ping pong balls fall our way or a team gets stupid and someone falls to us.

It's super irritating seeing Mike Friggin Muscala score 22 points in 15 minutes on 7/7 shooting.

Yep I could live with it if Bazley or Maledon were lighting it up.
