He's not playing to hold onto a lead, he's playing because Nash is trying to work him up to his normal minutes and wants him on the floor.

KD is ridiculous. 31 on basically all jumpshots.

I like the plan to build his minutes regardless of score. KD is so good, it's easy to forget he hasn't played more than 20 minutes since his return.

KD is still playing because its the performance team's plan. It's unfortunate that this game ended up being the 1st of a b2b, but I don't see any way of KD playing tomorrow now.

Yeah this is probably the recommendation of the training staff, as a way to get KD back into his normal game shape. This is probably better at preventing injuries than an arbitrary minutes restriction.

BTW, they've also probably decided already that both Griffin and KD are out tomorrow. They're not going to risk anything.

How close can our bench unit make this game? Think Minnesota can get it under 20 before the end of the game?

Seems as if KD won't play tomorrow. No way he plays back to back 30+ min games this fresh off a hamstring.

Especially since we have no Harden or Kyrie. It's not like this is a statement game. I don't want to throw away games but KD needs to be 100% for the playoffs. The plan was to build him back slowly and this is only his 3rd game back. He's still in the building stage.


I'm not sure about that. I'd play both KD and Kyrie.

Worst part of garbage time is watching another TLC brick fest.

BTW, not impressed with Anthony Edwards at all, dude is the definition of a black hole on offense...every time he got the ball, it was a shot.

It'll be a travesty if he wins RotY over Haliburton.

Okay, they were doing some of that, yeah, but 90% of it was still issue-based.

What do you think the issue was in the first place, and why do you think people got upset, eh?

As for "the game?"

Dude, THE GAME was cancelled because of the tragedy, see...? THAT'S what people were talking about, see?


Bro I don't know what you're bloviating about anymore.

I weighed on in the issue and so did others.

Right before the game started the discussion continued and got personal, so I tried to turn attention to the game an hour before it started.

IDK what your issue is but this is my final post on this topic.

Your obvious issue is that you were barely paying attention in the first place, as usual.

Late to the party, didn't know anything, had fool's gold to contribute.

Pro tip-- the actual formula is "FeS2," not so much your endless bloviating.

"Bloviating!" Good word, huh? Learned it recently, it sounds like you did, lol.
