The Hawks should be so kind to rest 4 of their starters and they still would have a more talented roster than ours.

I'm really counting on this loss. I will be disappointed if we don't get it.

I feel like this has been your MO since Kemba went down in January.

I'm going to the game tonight with a pretty big group of work folks. Would be nice if it was competitive into the fourth quarter.

We have already clinched the #1 seed in the east now. I'd love for Bud to rest literally all our starters and you guys get the W tonight. That way Charlotte can start creeping back up for that #8 seed to knock the nets out. The only games I want to see our 5 starters on the floor from here on out is our two remaining games against Brooklyn.

Yeah, doesn't ATL have some sort of option to swap picks with BKN? They should throw the game for us then! But we've been so crappy lately, we'd still probably lose. There's just been no fire there for the past few weeks.

Charlotte is a 3 point favorite tonight even coming off that overtime game. Will Atlanta be resting starters or something I know they just clinched homecourt.

Yea we get to swap 1st round picks with brooklyn this year thanks to the joe Johnson trade from the nets GM Billy GOATKing :lol:

LOL, I kinda hope we lose to a team resting all 5 starters. If that isn't an indication of our ineptitude I don't know what is.

So who other than Shroder will start tonight?

just bet on Charlotte (-3). I'm officially an idiot.

Post #14 » by **fatlever** » Sat Mar 28, 2015 8:06 pm

I guess Bazemore will start at SG and Antic or Brand at C. Who is the SF and PF? Mike Scott?

If I had to guess I'd say this will be our starting lineup

PG: Dennis Schröder
SG: Kent Bazemore
SF: Thabo Sefolosha
PF: Elton Brand or Mike Muscala
C: Pero Antic

I just put Schroder and Bazemore in my fanduel lineup along with Henderson.

Dammit I'm in a championship week in a league and needed Horford, I assume he's resting?
