No PJ for this game - so does Miles get the start?

And I assume that puts Biz back into the rotation?

And Does Miles starting mean more PT for Twin #2 in a key reserve role?

McDaniels who might make some sense in PJs absence has been sent to the G-bubble

The 76ers (and other big teams like the Lakers and Grizzlies) are just a terrible matchup for us. We don't have the size to defend them. I really, really hope Kupchak will find a way to make this team bigger in the offseason.

Just going to need guys to continue to step up. Was Monk last game. I think Graham is due for a 40 point outburst.

Terry questionable for tonight.

We already know that PJ is out.

Call me crazy but start LaMelo at the 4 if Terry plays

I just hope we don't panic trade for PJ Tucker because they think this is a playoff team

We can't have a starting backcourt of Graham and Rozier and expect to compete with the 76ers.

Size and skill > just skill.

Terry joining PJ on the sidelines tonight.

Both officially out.

LaMelo and Miles getting the start.

Really shortens our bench.

So who gets the nod besides #1 and #10? I really want to see Richards again, but maybe McDaniels will come in, as others have suggested. I do not want to see Biyombo play more than five minutes.

Melo on the break with a go ahead pass is delicious.

Melo with the "I'm angry I didn't get that call" 3 pointer.

cody's face is a magnet for elbows

i don't know why we're playing a double pg lineup with only two pgs that can play

especially in a game where bench play is our only shot at winning

It's weird to have Philadelphia screen for their center all the time, instead of the other way around. But he is 2-3 from beyond the arc already.
