With one game remaining, the Brooklyn Nets have announced they're going to sit six of their players for Wednesday's finale against the Chicago Bulls.

Perhaps the Magic should sit Payton, Fournier, Gordon, and Vučević as all have had previous injuries and to say nothing is gained in this game is an understatement.

With the Pistons 2 games up on the Hornets in the loss column and 2 games back in the loss column to the Nuggets, this game literally has no meaning to the Pistons (so they might try to win the game).

The Magic could be well served to use this rotation:
Augustin/Watson
Ross/Garino/Georges-Hunt
Meeks
Hezonja/Rudez
Biyombo/Zimmerman

Focus on "player development" should be the only goal of this game.

This dumpster fire of a season is almost over.

[Jiwol]

I don't care any longer. Just lose this one and blow this **** up ASAP.

I think Vogel should experiment with AG playing point... for 48 minutes

Normally the 1st NBA game doesn't start until 7pm on the weekdays, So why are they starting the 1st set of games at 8pm?

The end is near.

I think I'm in need of Tobias hitting a buzzer beater to guarantee us the loss. More likely? He blows a fast break layup at the buzzer and we win.

After the 50pt loss to a bad team, I think we should lose by 70 tonight to make a statement.

[KillMonger]

Most of the people there probably have no clue who he is. That's our die hard a for ya.

[Gomagic44]

You've gotta be a really rich die hard to purchase tickets to see this squad play. I work too hard for the respectable but not massive money o make and know too much about this failure to spend a dime supporting this dumpster fire.

By buying the tickets you are supporting upper management. Your literally purchasing the product they have carefully crafted for 5 years. So chanting for his dismissal wouldn't do the same as say, not going.

It's in Orlando? Damn. We simply can not win this game.

[PrimeThyme]

Just sit everybody. No starter even deserves to play after that pathetic effort the other night anyways.

This basically means that he's going to play his normal rotation the entire game because this clown has to save the little pride he has left like he always does.
