Dragic situation is now equivalent to Iguodala with Memphis. Nice gig if you can get it.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

How does an injury go from "will be out a long time" to "day by day" to suddenly "going to be a problem"

Our already horrendous bench is gonna be even worse now that Svi is gonna be starting. Guess it’s all on Yuta since I’m not expecting any help from Boucher

We're in big trouble with gary/og out.

Fred typically feasts on low iq players or one-dimensional types. He can't out-smart marcus smart. It's just one of those matchups that makes fred look average for some reason. Additionally...fred's D becomes less relevant because smart isnt a focus on offense.

We're gonna need a huge game from one of or both siakam and barnes to have a shot.

Might be a good game to give banton/flynn extended runs and give fred some rest.

Hips are scary in the athletics world, never know what sort of pain you’re going to wake up to in the morning

We have had many injuries since the end of the championship season.

Precovid 2019 had several injuries to starters - but we kept on winning.

Tampa had many injuries even before half the team caught Covid.

Now again, injuries piling up.

There is a pattern here.

Playoff chances diminish greatly without arguably our best two way player....

OG always seems to miss a chunk of games every season.
Hopefully he doesn't miss too many games.

Would be nice if players like Boucher, Flynn, and Banton could hold their own when on the floor. Seems like lately whenever they get on the court the opposing team starts getting on a run and we have to bring the starters back in right away. This results in having to play the starters heavy minutes and now we have injuries. Like imagine if Boucher wasn't completely useless on the floor, maybe Birch wouldn't be injured right now.

I'm not holding my breath on Pascal having a big game today. Boston knows how to defend him. They completely neutralized him in the bubble. The only thing more embarrassing than his play in that series was Nick constantly going back to him for continuous isolations and Brown constantly blocking him. Brings back nightmarish memories. We probably win that series if Pascal was even playing at an average level..

Hoping Barnes and Fred can carry us to victory

Still think we win. Celtics are missing a bunch of their guys too and we still have Fred and Siakam who have that winning culture.
