Schroder. He's back in this game.

Only guys who are sitting out this one are Brown (COVID), Horford (COVID), Pritchard (broken nose) and Smart (suspended)
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

that'd be a lot of chaos for a few spot minutes in a last pre-season game, before cutting him.

Weirdly excited to watch this game, esp. cos I missed most of the last one.

My guess for starters: Schroder-Nesmith-Langford-Tatum-Timelord

I for one am also excited as usual, but this time to see what Schroder looks like with the starters.

Under the category of no one really cares, I still feel the need to announce that I can watch Tonight's game, but on a recording of 2 hours later thanks to it airing on ESPN 2 tonight.

With that said I can not join my fellow On-line enthusiasts as usual in the GDT. But I will still be with you guys in spirit of whatever they say :o :(

PS, I know some will be happy to hear this... but I love you anyway 8-)

Yeah i was gonna say the same thing.

0 starts for Tatum at the 4 in any preseason game.

2 starts in preseason at the 4 for Grant, 1 for Al, and 1 for Juancho....

Tatum at the 3 means more mins for guys like Al/Rob/Kanter/Juancho/Grant/Parker and less mins for guys like Nesmith/Langford/Richardson/Schroder/Pritchard/Smart

I love the flexibility, though.
We have a lot of 1-2's, 2-3's, 3-4's & 4-5's. I think that we'll go far in the Playoffs.

As the undisputed President of the Nesmith fan club, I need to speak out on his behalf. WTH is IME doing NEVER starting this kid. His best asset should/will be playing along side Tatum as a knock down shooter.

I swear IME must be taking directions from COACH Brad Stevens... And most should know where I am going with that one :evil:

Looks like the last starting spot is between Horford, Langford, Juancho, and Grant

EDIT

reading this is the same thing as tendinitis. Not great that he already has it before the season starts. And could explain why he hasn't looked great so far this preseason.
