What's with the projected starting lineup? Is Johnson out?

Lame. We've been so much better with him on the floor. Huge blow to our already meager chances of winning tonight.

Point Book vs Point Harden could be a fun matchup

I expect the rockets to come out and want to get a win. They’re still not out of the 2nd seed yet with Denver looking questionable post all star break.

This will be a tough game.

Neither TJ tonight? That's not good. I think we've only won 1 game when neither of them has played. This should really show how much difference Tyler Johnson makes, but between Melton and Bridges, hopefully we can give Harden a little bit of trouble. And no Chris Paul.

Zion and company vs #3 ranked North Carolina tonight..will start around halftime of our game on ESPN...you would have thought winner would be going against #2 ranked Virginia tomorrow night but they are down 10 right now to Florida St, so it could be them.

Those long court camera shots are annoying. I could not see the spacing on why Ayton passed to the outside when Harden was on him in the paint. You get used to one perspective and then they change seats on you. :)

I like Cameron Johnson as a 2nd round pick for us.

2 bullet pass turn overs. I love the looks from Ayton just needs to slow the pass down a bit.

No Tyler Johnson yet. Any reason?
