A matchup made for LMA tonight



Lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

[Prokorov]

Should be interesting... we should know this afternoon who is/is not resting for the nets. Second of a back to back on the road is a textbook rest game and we also then have to fly to orlando to play the magic on wednesday so we dont have 2 days off after the back to back and we dont fly back home.

I'd expect 1 or 2 of:
Harden
Blake
LMA
KD

to sit or be heavy restricted. I Think this is a great spot to rest Blake. LMA has a good matchup with Vuc and Sharpe's size may be handy. in a game we are likely to lose playing Cam in Harden's spot and Sharpe in Blake's spot is some nice burn for those guys and maybe their youth sparks us to a closer game/W.

I dont feat the bulls. They started hot but played alot of bad teams. they are 1-3 in their last 4 games and have come way back to earth once they hit some good teams on their schedule.

that said, teams playing second of a back to back on the road dont fare well regardless of who the teams are.

I'd put us at just under a coin flip tonight regardless of who plays.

I mean, no disrespect to Bird who was great in his era, but KD is just a superior player.

[MrDollarBills]

Bulls fans came on here talking sh*t to start the season, now they've gone quiet.

I absolutely want to win this game, and put them in their place.

the back to back on the road makes this one tougher then normal... if we win look out. 7 of our next 8 are vs cupcake teams (warriors only tough opponent)

[Prokorov]

James Johnson out. Sharpe/Cam called up from g-league

those things more important with the back to back. rookie should see some real time. no word on Blake/Harden yet. both candidates to sit

Yep. We might rattle off a major win streak. Let's not get overconfident, but Harden rounding into form and our defense has me pumped

Can't wait to play the Warriors

Would love to see Cam and Sharpe get some minutes. This is a toss up though being a BTB with minute restrictions. KD could cook them right off the bat and we have Brown and Bembry to wreak havoc. Doubt we see Blake but Sharpe has been solid especially on the glass and defensively and has continued to hit 3’s. I loved that pick.

[Stone]

Agreed, it would be nice to see the rookies get some PT.

We won our first 2nd game of a back to back and if we can get a balanced effort from our guys we can get a W. This should be a fun game to watch.

That's not old school basketball though. That play would have been a foul in the 80s and 90s

[MrDollarBills]

Harden needs to get into the paint to get us some easier shots.

[MrDollarBills]

Finally Nash is getting on the refs. Jesus christ

[Stone]

I’d like to see the replay, but I can’t see how that was an offensive foul

[Khashbaatar]

tired legs

[MrDollarBills]

Our defense was awful in that quarter

[hisairness]

Bull already with 11 more shots and 7 off rebs to Nets 0. Worst defensive effort of the season so far
