I told you guys that all these players entering the protocols is a short term thing... if IT ends up playing well he will be a great depth guy off the bench and then you can put Rondo in the coaching role.


And the NFL postponed games to Monday and Tuesday. This is the new world…not the “everyone stay in your house or become a zombie” propaganda.

There is a vaccine now and it serves its purpose.

Bummer we won't see Ant. Good for the Lakers, I guess, but that guy is an absolute superstar in the making.

This is a weird time to start a game. 9 pm in Minnesota. I don't see many games starting this late.

With a short rotation, we have to be careful about overplaying Bron and AD.

No asymptomatic can still spread the virus, they need 2 negative test results. LBJ had a false positive result and that could possibly have been the case with Russ as well. Or he may have just been in contact tracing. Whereas - for example- THT has COVID so he is OUT lol

I'm likely not going to a game this year like I had planned.. It's basically become a game of musical chairs at this point. My luck is I pick a game where the day of tip off our entire big 3 are suddenly out

Reaves is def. the biggest disappointment as I was really looking forward to seeing him get a start but at least with Russ back we should still have more then enough to win tonight's game at least...... hopefully!

Now Reaves out. Idc, keep Bazemore’s minutes low. He’s a complete negative. If Vogel puts him out there with Jordan…

Well, now the Lakers are screwed.

Reaves and AB are the only capable POA defenders.

Maybe Bazemore and Ariza can hold it down, Russ steps up and they can get some help defense from LBJ/AD.

POA defense is going to look like a disaster tonight.

I can't understand why Minny would start a game at 9 PM local time. I was expecting the game to start RIGHT NOW!

Maybe this will give Reaves time to test negative twice and fly to Minny.

Reading through TDRock's posts in the injury and game threads is an eye opener with all the additions and subtractions from protocol. Monk going on protocol, announcing he's back, then back on protocol. WTH?
