Anyone know how long Austin will be out for? And I'm also curious to see if the bench lineup will be improved without baby Rivers in it. I'm hoping the bench starts tearing it up without him and it opens Docs eyes to how bad his son is and how bad of an idea it is to play him and Crawford at the same time, especially when one of them is the SF

Well if Austin is out, that sucks because I believe Felton is still out due to the death in his family isn't he?

Looking forward to this game to see if we can build some momentum with another solid performance.

Any ideas of what our bench will look like without Austin / Felton? Will Paul play more minutes or will we go big with w3s at the 2?

I am not all that happy about being up by 6 at this point of this game. we better not lose focus and ultimately, the lead.

It just looks like this team is playing uninspired basketball. They're just going through the motions. Which is funny because of what is on the line this season and what needs to happen to keep this core together.

What frustrates me is that we gave up 60 points in the half. I still didn't feel great about the 1st quarter. We gave up 29 points and Jamal caught fire towards the end of the quarter to build our lead.

We'll see if we can play better in the 2nd half.

All I can say is that I'm glad we aren't playing a contender.

I guess the refs don't want to call anything at the rim. They've missed Blake being fouled a couple of times.

it's a close game.

I'm happy that we have a 3 point lead going into the 4th. However I'm not sure how we'll play to close out.

Mo Buckets, less problems.

I'm glad we got Mo Buckets and not Mo Bricks.

Blazers on a 10-0 run since the timeout. We'll have to break the law if we want to win.

The question is what the heck happened to their defense...like they went on that road trip and forgot to bring it with them. They come home and find that it's not there either
