    Capela might be re-injured by Pachulia. I'm predicting this now.

    Question: Would you guys rather us win this game or the game against Memphis the following night? (assuming you can only pick one, becasue I know 100% of us, myself included, would love to win both).

    I'm conflicted because beating the best-record super team of Golden State is always awesome and a benchmark for proving that we're championship contenders...however, we've already beaten them once on the road, yet we've lost twice to the Grizzlies already. I think a Memphis victory would be more crucial for team morale and shows that we wouldn't matchup against them horribly in the playoffs.

    Thoughts?

    Pau Gasol out indefinitely after fracturing a bone in his hand
    Gasol will likely miss at least a month, and maybe more.

    Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports


    Pau Gasol is out indefinitely after fracturing the fourth metacarpal in his left hand during warmups on Thursday.

    It’s an unlucky break for the 36-year-old Spurs big man, who is having a quality season in a smaller role. Despite averaging career lows in minutes (26.4) and points (11.7), Gasol is shooting 51 percent from the field, 46.5 percent from the three-point line, and rebounding nearly eight boards per game.

    A fractured metacarpal is a common injury in the NBA, and recovery time usually varies based on whether the player has to undergo surgery. A few players have missed an entire season with a metacarpal injury, but others have returned between 28 and 57 days after the operation. If Gasol doesn’t need surgery, then his return could be less than four weeks or potentially more than eight. Here’s a good look at the injury and its recovery time.

    Gasol’s absence will likely push Dewayne Dedmon into the starting rotation, but there’s a good chance LaMarcus Aldridge or even David Lee will shift over to center in a small ball lineup to soak up minutes.

    Man I can't tell you how much I want to beat these little turds. I really do not like Durrant and his running to them. Proves he tucked his junk under when he couldn't beat them. Or Curry and his spastic a** shot and chewing his mouthguard like a d*** cow chews its cud. Come on Rox. Golden Shower these golden boys. PLEASE!

    Green is going to be extra rough... I can't believe Pachulia got all dirt bag... He learned it from Green? Watch out Rockets.. Punch Green in the face if you have to. Don't let them rough you up without repercussions.

    I'd rather beat GS. You get way more confidence in beating the best and it's not exactly like many beat them. Grizz are a B2B road game so a little bit harder to gauge anyways, and we really should've won last time.

    Plus, **** Draymond and Steph. Same goes for KD, but he's a fellow Longhorn alumni so I still have some love for him.
