How worried are we about CamJ being a frank kaminsky type injury where it seems minor but he stays out forever?

I hope they are being extra careful with these injuries considering the 1 seed is almost guaranteed. Who starts today? Craig?

Not really. It's not a joint injury so I'm not too concerned. I'm sure they are waiting for the swelling/bruising to subside but other than some freak blood clot or if they aren't telling us something like he has a broken leg hell be back soon.

Good to see Ayton getting to it early. Wood isn't an easy cover.

What's up with Crowder?

A little bit but hopefully they're just being cautious

We should probably defend the 3 better since you know they’re shooting 70% from it…

Someone mentioned defending the three? Yeah. We definitely need to do that.

Shamet has hit Russell Westbrook status with me where I think every time he pulls up for a shot he’s going to brick it…

Rockets killing us from deep, currently shooting 50% from range. If we don't start defending, they could easily blow our doors off.

Craig 5 of 10 from 3 in the past few games, maybe just me but looks to have gotten a smoother shot.

We got this. We just need to make a run at some point in the second half.

it seems it's more about us not hitting ours. we make two more 3s and it's a 7 point game.
