Dakota Mathias is not making his shots but he looks good to me for a rotational guy. He is trigger happy, quick release and high release point. But he has to make those shots which he has the same upside to do with like what Nik Stauskas had.
There’s never been a time in history when we look back and say that the people who were censoring free speech were the good guys.

Paul Reed, either getting used to NBA speed or low basketball IQ.

Jokic and D12 are nightmares for refs. They play veteran 50-50 call tricks.

I'm guessing this decision isn't being made by the players and Doc. I'd guess ownership and Silver decided on that.
Guess we can do our part to make sure Denver makes the playoffs.
I'm still pissed about it, seems like they are making an example of us. Wonder what happens to the Celtics without Tatum.
Bet they cancel games for that.
Hate to say I told you guys so....but I told you guys they would do this garbage lol.
Sixers ownership is absolute garbage.

Sixers ownership went above and beyond this year making sure they got both the best coach and best GM on the market. They have willingly allowed GM's to spend into the luxury tax. They may not be perfect, but enough of this garbage about us having bad owners. You think they wouldn't have preferred a prime matchup being postponed and played with our full roster versus a game many on these forums bailed on and didn't watch?

Do you think Silver made us play this game? NBATV? Who exactly do you think made us play this game?

I have no idea who specifically did, but I really don't believe it was ownership. What exactly does ownership gain by having this game played crippled with just 7 players available?

If the game is postponed and played later where do they gain more money by playing it now with a lineup so bad most people tuned out?

Depends, if the postponed game is on national TV then I would agree with you. I have a tendency to believe that the postponed game wouldn't be televised nationally, hence less money. Not like they will all of a sudden get more fans in the seats with a postponed game, COVID isn't going away that fast...and not only that, the season could be in jeopardy.
Silver might have a little motivation to get the game played, but I seriously doubt he didn't give us an option. As for the players, Jojo made it obvious what he thinks. There is noone else to even point at other than ownership, the same ownership who sells picks instead of actually drafting players for the team.
Just my opinion.
