    I hate our slow starts. If we could get whipped into a frenzy right at tip-off, we could put this out of reach in the first quarter.

    This team should be a lot easier to defend than the Thunder, hopefully. No explosive scorers and their shooters aren't that great. Our offense has been so consistently effective that I'm only worried about how well we can defend the other team.

    Part of that has been due to Harden getting off to slow starts, Bev being out, and Anderson not shooting as well at home. Hopefully at least the latter is not an issue. I assume Bev is playing, but there's been no confirmation yet.

    Bev said his wrist was bothering him the whole night. So with this being a back to back I wouldn't be surprised if he sat out. I hope we can weather the storm of Brewer and Ennis getting more minutes

    I get what you're saying, but all that matters is the score at the final buzzer. We've had such a variety of ways of winning games this season, all I want is that W, don't care about the ebbs and flows during the game.

    Preferably in another boring blowout, so we can all post silly gifs of fart penis and ***** about brewer and KJ.

    More guard depth would be nice.

    Hope the rox aren't. Looking past an opponent is a sure way to lose. We need to come out with a wire to wire butt whipping Last few games it seems like we have been too laid-back and relying on last minute here heroics

    Just ask the Nuggets what we do the night after a monumental win.

    This is the very definition of a trap game, but hopefully they come to play and put them away early.
