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. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Yes, he brings what they expect from him. Defending the paint, rebounding and put backs. _________________ If you could choose between dating a supermodel or going fishing, would it be saltwater or freshwater? |

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. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

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 |

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. |
