Btw, I'm not doing a game thread until we hold a team under 110 and win.

Should be a nice opportunity for Bennett. I'd like to see McCullough get a chance at minutes over Scola. Might as well see how his development is progressing.

I wonder if Bennett is the beneficiary of Lopez being out or if we'll see the return of Hamilton from exile.

The hell? If BroLo was gonna rest have him sit the front end of a b2b against GSW. Theyre just gonna go lightning ball lineup on us anyway so BroLo has no one to guard. Bleh terrible rest management here, b2b causes more wear and tear, and playing TOR he gets a day of normal rest. If they wanted him extra rested for TOR then just sit him out for practice.

The Warriors struggle with size. Lopez can dominate their C rotation and plus, it's a home game. We play much better at home.

Out of these upcoming 3 tough games, the Toronto game is probably the most winnable game so I'd think they'd play Lopez on that one and let him sit the GS or Cavs game.

Let us hope Toronto rest DeRozen or Lowlry...Since it's the Nets, they might feel it's the perfect game to rest their stars.

It is? The Cavs are more inclined to rest LeBron or Love on Friday. Same with Golden State.

the Nets are doing some weird stuff in terms of rest/playing time ... I don't see any team in the league is doing this stuff as strict as the Nets

The "dreaded third quarter" has been replaced with the "rookie 4th quarter start". Let's hope for the best. Surely, without Brook, minute restrictions will have to be lifted for our players?

if that was the last time we'll ever see you know who on film, that was an epic send off. the carnage was magnificent.

the most awesome part is, if you watch A New Hope like right after, its a seamless transition. makes for a whole new viewing experience.

we're outmatched against all three opponents. it really doesn't matter.

Cleveland damn sure isn't resting against us. they'll probably try to blow us out after what happened last year.

Bennett and Scola facing their Former team...Bennett obviously has the most to prove being from Toronto.

Guess we'll see ya next season then.

Actually we've done that four times, twice BLI (before Lin indisposition) and twice LI (Lin indisposed). The LI era continues until the performance team deems it's over.

Don't understand resting Brook in this game. Also Lin is still under minute restriction. Makes more sense to play him against Toronto and the home game against Golden State and then rest him against Cleveland where Lin will be playing more minutes.
