I wonder if we will get a Bey v Bey matchup at any point tonight since Luka and DFS are out?

Two days rest after todays game. Should've played him. Win or lose.
You do realize there are 30 days in April and they are playing May 1st?

Oh, you're right. Messed up - seeing it danish time. Thought 29th - 2nd may. Two days rest. But it's only one day i see.
Doesn't change my opinion. Doncic should've played.

You want the win, I would appreciate the loss.(big fat juicy draft pick)
Besides that, I love watching Luka play and if he doesn't, ill be pretty damn disappointed.
First 3 minutes says you are absolutely right ... But i fully expect Mavs to make a run at some point.

Have you ever seen an elite player play 5 games in 7 days?
Luka was going to rest at some point.

Should go full strength and get the job done quick and easy.
You need to win something without Luka to. I have read somewhere that Pistons will miss players who scored 70+ points in first game between them.
But is this really the time to do so? Do you reckon Lillard are getting rested in one of the coming games?

How many counts as elite?
Lillard have played 5 in 7, Jokic the same i guess. Zion/Ingram, Tatum/Brown, Murray, LeBron, Booker. Not sure how many, but i reckon some of them have this season.
Thing is. This is not a mid-season game. It's towards the end of the season, all games are important. Stupid if you throw a must win game. Better sit Doncic against Nets or something instead.

Pistons are on pace for scoring 120+. Great D with both wannabe defenders back?

Danish time they play the 2nd. 03:00 in the night. As i wrote in the next reply. Hence my mistake.

None of these teams have had a 5 game week this year. The Raptors are playing 5 this week and obviously a different situation, but I don't think guys are going to be playing all 5.
Also SA and Milwaukee have 5 games the last week of the year. We'll see how that goes.

KP played 10 minutes but only had 4 shots. C'mon, he was just jogging up and down, they have to feed him way more. Also, Brunson is so frustrating with his tunnel vision. You're a playmaker, give your team some open shots.

Brunson provides zero D as well, and his 2-6 shooting makes him completely useless

Exactly, one of the most selfish players in the league. And he can't defend a picture frame

They have. By a quick count from the stars in the west. Mitchell, Jokic tonight (if he plays against Toronto), LeBron, Lillard, Morant, Booker, CP3, Curry, Zion and Ingram. All have played 5 in 7 this season.

Edit: Did Rick actually bench KP after 2 minutes? Lol...

Without being able to watch the game, let me guess
KP guarding Stewart
Brunson guarding Frank Jackson
Am I right?

B2B, rest, game, rest, B2B
Can be mistaken on some of them if they've played early on sundays. On ESPN they show the games on my local time - so might play late sunday = monday local time for me and then early sunday next week = sunday local time. In that case it's 8 days, but only shows as monday - sunday, so counted it as 7 days.
