Valanciunas is probably our toughest task thus far on whether a Biz/PJ frontcourt can hold up, especially with Brandon Clarke lurking on the weakside. Grayson Allen I believe left their last game hurt, so not sure if he will suit up or not.

Hopefully JB continues to find ways to get Melo on the court 25-30 mins, he deserves it.

Apparently Memphis has 5 or 6 players out tomorrow including Jackson.

We have family FaceTime’s scheduled with people back home tonight at the same time as tip-off, so I’m going to have to watch this game (and the new uni’s and court) on delay.

This makes me sad.

I'm sure JB is trying to get his confidence up, but we gotta stop force feeding PJ the ball.

I’m pretty sure our starting unit is not good together so far this season.

And Devonte doesn't seem involved in our offense. Which is remarkable since he's the PG.

I was just about to say the same thing. Seems like all the other units work better for us than this specific five.
