Our starters just need to play even, our bench is far superior to OKC especially w/o Shroder. Considering this is a first of a b2b expect the big guns to play less than 35 mins so Kuz, Dion and Carushow will get major burn.

We've clinched the #1 seed. All games until the finals are really meaningless except to keep timing. It's a good time to tune up. Play starters to keep them sharp. Give the bench some burn to find a solid 8 rotation.

I hope the Grizzlies can hold off the Trail Blazers. Dame Dolla ain't no joke. Mello ain't mello no mo. Hassan Whiteside is a handful. CJ McCollum can get hot and lite it up. If Trevo hits his stride Portland will not be a easy out.

By the By I won't be posting in the game thread at game time. When I do we lose. I'll comment before and after the game.

Do you guys think Steven Adams was worth his 110 million dollar contract?

Yes, he brings what they expect from him. Defending the paint, rebounding and put backs.

Losing Jaren Jackson Jr. and Justise Winslow didn't help their cause.

IMO not huge, we've locked up #1 seed. To me it's more revealing. From now until the playoffs we can look to see what we have, are we there yet, what are our strengths, weaknesses, what is our identity? etc.

OKC is going to be without Terrance Ferguson, Mike Muscala and most of all Dennis Schroder. Should get a win but we'll have to scrap.

JIC folks didn’t see it in the Injury thread, Dwight is out today.

Per Goon

Dwight Howard is OUT today with knee soreness.

I’m assuming the knee soreness has been bothering him for a while. he hasn’t been nearly as good as he was pre-pandemic.

Will be watching just to see how our players play. Don’t really care about the win. In fact, I think it’d be better if we toss this one to the side lol.

A win for OKC today makes it more likely that Rockets fall to #6 and we just gotta hope Clips fall to #3

The rest will serve him well; hopefully he'll be back for the Rockets.

We need to build a rhythm. Also, we might end up with the best record in the NBA. That’s still cool to say. Can’t believe we’re only separated by one L with the Bucks.

Why are ESPN games blacked out in the LA area but not TNT ones?
