    I see a loss as we are down at least 3 rotation players (Tucker update?). I’ll be looking for increased defensive effort. Hopefully we get Road Ryno instead of Pyrite Ryno.

    Let's throw Nanu into the deep end. If he fouls out, I can live with it. Tarik/ Nene and Nanu for 48 minutes.

    Joe Chee for 8-10 minutes to spell Anderson.

    Go Houston Rockets!

    I don't get it. Just WHAT did Clint do to his heel?
    How is it costing him 3 games? (or more)

    If Clint and cP3 don't play we lose by 26
    If Clint plays and CP3 doesn't we lose by 10
    If Clint doesn't play and CP3 does we win by 2
    If they both play we win by 15.

    This is another reason why you don't see seats filled to the max in arenas. Star or important players are always hurt. That's why the wait till playoff mantra is so relevant.

    if cp3 doesn't play might as well start Webber and sub Ego early

    and where are Williams and Qi? 32 year old Ariza's playing too many minutes

    With all the guys likely out, it'll be shocking if we win. Maybe we can shock the world.

    Roberson does ok on him too tho.

    We'll have a battle but I think Jimmy gets us a W. Should be well rested.

    It's gonna take a Ryan Anderson or ariza to have a great game if capela doesn't play. Hell even if he do play. Harden can't do it alone being guarded for 40 mins by PG13 and or Roberson. Hopefully Gordon also steps up
