Noah's out, probably replaced by Gibson in the starting lineup. How confident are you that Budenholzer will rest the starters? Your team's media notes still have them in.

Not to sure tbh. I imagine the starters will play but it will be sparingly most likely. I really want yall to win though so we can face either Toronto/Washington in the 2nd round.

Even if we were facing any other team, I'd still want us to sit Millsap and play the starters sparingly. Playoffs are only a few days ago, and with our city's luck, you never know what could go wrong in terms of injuries during the last regular season game. (Especially after Thabo).

I'd rather go into the playoffs knowing Milsap can go than finding out five minutes into game one of the playoffs. I say let him get a quarter and a few minutes in the third.

Game has playoff implications. Bulls clinch 3rd seed with a win or Toronto loss. Not looking ahead, but who would you all prefer as the 4-5? Toronto-Wash or Chicago-Wash? On paper, you'd think Chicago as the 3 would be ideal, but Toronto has had our number.

Millsap is starting tonight. I hope that's a sign of only good things to come regarding his health now and throughout the playoffs.

I would prefer Toronto/Washington as the 4 vs 5 matchup. Best case scenario is Washington winning that series because we have literally smacked them around all season and had their number. Toronto has gotten the best of us this season but the first loss was really early in the season and the second was just an offensive shoot out. I just feel like we would do better against them than Chicago. The Bulls have a lot of size and I see that as a problem for us. Plus the Bulls could wear down the cavs for us if and when we make it to the ECF.

Go bulls, Go bulls. We need them to finish 3rd so that they can beat Cleveland in the 2nd round. :nod: How nice would that be not to have ESPN spend 80% of its broadcast talking about LeBrick James from the 2nd round on? Priceless :nod:
GO HAWKS.

LOL true... in a way too bad the Hawks season ended earlier and could go 0-3 into the playoffs, limited players or not.

The Miami/Philly game should be hilarious. Philly owns Miami's pick if the pick falls lower than 10th. Miami gets to keep the pick if it is a top 10 pick. A win vs Philly tonight could knock Miami in to the 11th spot if Brooklyn loses.

Toronto wins 92-87. We really need to throw this game now in the 2nd half!

Budz is playing chess. He pulled out all the starters by the end of the third.

Bud seemed to have just wanted to prove a point before yanking the starters. We'd beat Chicago in 6, but it would be brutal physically, give that to the Cavs.

Our team should have the most energy out of every team in the playoffs with how much rest our starters have gotten this year.
