    This game would be tough to win whether or not we have Parsons anyways, so sitting out is a good decision. Wouldn't want him to go down like Delfino.

    I don't want Mook to start. He's our best offensive threat off the bench, and we're going to need as much offense off the bench as possible.

    Why would Cook start instead of Morris? FFS

    I hope this means D-Mo and/or Jones are going to get some legit rotation minutes tonight at the 4, but knowing our coaching staff it probably just means Morris plays 45 minutes and Cook gets to play 20 instead of 10

    Tough tough game. Just want to see all players put in effort and continue to build their chemistry.
    Hope we can win this one for Harden and Parsons!

    Hopefully Morris gets the start. It'll help with the rebounding absence we lose with Parsons being out. No one will be able to guard Durant, but Morris will at least be physical with him.

    Hurts to see Parsons have to sit after having such a great week.

    What i saw is Toronto threw the white flag surrender bench. And Samson as a dumbass kept the starters out there till they got tired and eventually fresh raps sliced the deficit. Then the raps decided to bring the starters back cuz they now had a chance. Unsportsmanlike coaching is unsportsmanlike.

    We have a **** bench. The starters are going to play heavy minutes until this changes if they want to win games. Its not complicated.

    Durant doesn't like it when it gets physical. Maybe a bigger guy on him like Morris will put him off his game?

    Parsons can't lift his arm at all? That does not sound good.

    On the bright side, we'll probably get to see T.Jones tonight.
