Wishful thinking that Booker will be back. I expect he'll be out. Hopefully we can get back into that win column though.

Wouldn't think Booker would play B2B.

Just looking for Ayton to keep progressing, season results will look after themselves.

Roby looks like he's 5 years old. If Ayton doesnt' dominate him i'll be upset.

Is Horford still going to be out?

Jalen Smith should have a really solid game. Is Galloway playing?

The Thunder seem to be hanging with a lot of good teams, for whatever reason.

Our record is better than it should be according to our SRS. Seems like we’ve got teams when they were missing key guys and we play hard. It’s irritating.

Since the vast majority of your team is young and developing, wouldn't you rather they play well than play like crap? You are almost certainly assured of one of the worst 4-5 records. Very likely one of the worst 4, and the worst 4 all have identical odds to get a top 3 pick. It's not like the very worst team has any different odds than the next two worst and the 4th is only slightly worse odds.

So no difference whatsoever in finishing worst or 3rd worst and not really much different from worst to 4th worst. I think only Washington, Detroit and Minnesota will rival you for worse records, and Wash/Minn has been hurt by COVID so far.
