Whiteside vs. Dwight will be the center matchup old school guys drool over.

No Dragic tonight hurts them offensively, but Richardson might compensate for that on the defensive end.

Winslow is out.

Rodney McGruder
Dion Waiters
Josh Richardson
Derrick Williams
Hassan Whiteside

The starting lineup according to C-Viv.

They're still a professional NBA team and all but this game should be a Grenada: easy win.

It's easy to see why Whiteside was given an immediate max from Miami without hesitation. He completely got the better of Dwight in that first quarter. 9 rebounds thus far.

As of this moment, is anyone really still regretting the THJ trade? I'm not trying to frame question either (it's ok if you are), I just really want to know.

THJ has been great this year. No doubt about it. As the most ardent critic (on this board) of that trade, He's definitely making the acquisition look better in hindsight.

I do wonder just how much it's gonna take to retain him. And where he fits long term with Bazemore and Taurean on board.

But, it's really hard to criticize it much at this point.

Great win without Dwight down the stretch. We obviously missed him on account of all the offensive boards given up.

Streak is 5. Hopefully the big fella is back tomorrow.

Yes hopefully him sitting out is just for precautions.

You guys won that trade. I still believe in Timmy as a shooter. He's also improved his ball handling this year.

He did say he has worked on his ball handling. And it's no surprise that he has been running point in some instances. His defense even last year was much improved from his NY days.

Yeah, his D is much improved from his knick days, although I think he can still be somewhat of a liability on that end at times, he has still come a long way.
